I commend you, though, for > your thrift. I'm trying to learn that virture myself. I am aware of the growing debt of many Americans. I don't think it is a good thing, but I also don't think it is the responsibility of the government to somehow fix it -- that lies with each individual. Although I would like to see the government set a good example, by spending less itself, and by no longer actively encouraging profligate spending by the American consumer. Just say no to "stimulus" checks! _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
