In the future, enough resources to do the job right, within the budgetary constraints agreed to. If we can't do it acceptably, we should look for another solution. Hasn't happened in a while. I don't advocate cheap fixes that don't work. I hate expensive screw-ups. For now, the financial rescue needs to include out-of budget spending and out-of budget tax relief that will show quick impacts. We need to also hold-off on protectionism; if we only buy American who do we think we can sell American-made products to? After 12-24 months of out-of budget spending and tax-relief, we need to budget carefully, so we can start to build a surplus, like the one that president of stupidity (Big tax cuts for the top brackets! No regulatory over-sight!) ruined.
Thank you, Mark Snyder -----Original Message----- The only criteria should be: Is this the most efficient use of the taxpayer's money to meet the enumerated responsibilities of the federal government? One thing I can never get an answer to from proponents of big government is "How much is enough?". Care to take a stab at it? ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
