"Government has no capability to manage production or business." That's way they are in Congress... they already failed in the business world. Now, they are going to dictate how companies are going to operate?

Seriously. Look at the ballots. Privilege is owed, but doesn't mandate, responsibility. It seems many in our country have forgotten that. Which is a top reason, but far from the only reason, they're idiots. > Their model, in case you hadn't noticed, is not doing any better than ours, I didn't say Europe, nor the US Democrat party. I said the European social democrat tradition which has not, to my knowledge, been executed anywhere. In my view it would be adapted and encapsulate this concept: (1.) Government has no capability to manage production or business. (2.) Government has a capability to regulate markets by managing exposure risk through anti-trust which should guarantee that (a.) no company has a monopoly, and (b.) no company is large enough the failure of which would impact an economy. Not this WAS NOT DONE with AIG for example. Or the Auto industry. (3.) Government has a capability to be an advocate for the consumer, the primary duty of which should be to ensure financial security. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:283044 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
