Bearcat;

Feel good big government will not work.

Sure it does. The first thing I do in the morning is turn on my coffee pot with electricity brought to me by the government. Then I turn on the computer and thanks to the wonder of technology devloped with a bunch of government money - the internet - I am immediately connected to the world. If I go into town on my rural road, I am doing so on government built and maintained roads. The library, the police, the fireman, the hospital all government. Now you may want to abandone all that and live in a cave - I don't.

Go visit a socialist country Bearcat - try sweden or Norway. That socialism you so fear is functioning just great and their people are happier, healthier, richer and a heck of a lot more culture than we do.
