Quothe Joe R., from writings of Thu, Apr 01, 2004 at 09:05:01PM -0500: Aside from a different Skullbone (Bonehead?) in Chief, there will be at least one difference: the nation will move even closer to towards being a complete totalitarian socialist state. Neither candidate appears concerned with solving any of this nation's biggest ills such as confiscatory levels of taxation (although people with very large incomes and families with children get nice income tax breaks, the rest of us get screwed to make up for it, and we're all equal victims of the many other taxes), an increasingly annoying and dangerous continued transformation of a once free nation that valued freedom and liberty into a totalitarian "nanny state", overpopulation and excessive land destruction ("development"), once safe and prosperous cities that have been transmogrified into dangerous deteriorating jungles (one can thank the promoters of a welfare state in exchange for minority votes for that), excessive overseas job/career outsourcing; grossly overpaid, corrupt and wasteful politicians; the dangerous problem of middle-income salaries being eliminated with "job growth" coming from low-paying service jobs, an out-of-control pharmaceutical industry pushing certain unnecessary drugs off on people who don't truly need them and are harmed by them---assisted by politicians and physicians, a false economy based on growth rather than stability, etc., to name just a few things that few US politicians want to discuss. -- Copyright (C) 2003 R.
