(1993-96). >From 1982 to 1993, Joe Cobb served the United States government in a series of increasingly responsible positions in the formation of our nation’s economic policy: * Chief Economist, U.S. Senate Republican Policy Committee (1992-93) * Staff Director, Congressional Joint Economic Committee (1990-91) * Senior Economist, Congressional Joint Economic Committee (1985-90) * Economist, Banking Committee, U.S. House of Representatives (1983-84) * Economic Advisor, State Department, U.S. Mission to the Organization of American States (1982-83) * Deputy Director, White House Office of Policy Information (1982) Joe Cobb received his degrees in economics [M.B.A. (1977), B.A. (1966)] from the University of Chicago where he had the privilege of studying with Nobel Laureates Milton Friedman and F.A.

Vic, if you want clear answers you must ask clear questions :) If a person knowingly, and of their own free will, gets drunk or impairs their own facilities, they are still responsible for their own actions. Free moral agency arises from the conscious volition of a person. Each person's inalienable right to individual self- ownership is always inseperable from their responsiblity to respect that of other persons.
