Ted, While you are at it, why don't you discuss how the city of Santa Monica, a public entity, took a moribund shopping street with a vacancy rate of over 30% and through creative planning turned it into a major revenue producer for the city with some of the highest rental rates in the country.

A great example of pushing more and more government projects to the state and local levels?

And then discuss how INTC spent billions for years on a chip in which they will never recoup their expenses.

Hey, I resemble that remark! But that's just the nature of the free market. Intel is spending the rewards of its past successes on future product ideas. Not all of them may pan out, but at least Intel is better off spending that money than, say, AMD or Cyrix. Or the federal government for that matter. ;-)

Stupid legal disclaimer: I work for INTC, so I'm obviously paid to be biased against AMD and Cyrix. Of course, I'm also biased against liberalism, but I'm still waiting for my check from the "vast right-wing conspiracy." ;-)
