I think the biggest reason you guys are not seeing eye to eye is that Gruss is talking abut an economic model and Gel seems to be talking about a political model. They are related, but certainly not the same. Gel, it seems that most of your objections to America's (and specifically, Bush's) general attitudes and actions are mostly political. Even if it's an economic policy, it's still a political decision unless that policy actually changes the economic system this country runs under. I'd say that even if you don't like the current president, you have to appreciate a system that gurantees he will be in office no longer them 8 years total. -Cameron ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:191404 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
