  • Worrisome as it might be, I'd like to think the rising stench of discontent about the existing wars (don't forget Afghanistan), combined with the perilous future of the American dollar, will be enough to swing people's attention back to the need for job security over Homeland Security.

  • Exactly. Which is why any safety measure, in any workplace, is a waste of time and money. If steel mill and power plant workers want "safe" jobs, they should bag groceries instead of risking their lives around molten metal and high voltage every day, no?

  • Of course, Romney and Huckabee show no signs of seeking to end the "War on Terror" either. So, unless you look to Ron Paul, the logical conclusion is that ALL Republican candidates intend to be "war presidents," or at least that they don't intend to take active steps to end the war while in office.

  • Huh? Take a look at the USA, that is exactly what we have, elements of capitalism and elements of socialism. Exactly. And look how well our health care system works.

  • The real problem here is that people are bemoaning the fact that they cannot rely upon their government to provide them with basic services. Is it frustrating, illogical, lacking in compassion? Possibly, but it's also good business, and that's what every government is, at its root: a business.
