John, I am all in favor of a great jobs program and have said many times we need to sink huge sums into infrastructure that makes America stronger. But to charge this on our kids is just stupid and wrong. Better we stop spending money in Iraq and Afghanistan, bring our kids home from this hopelessness, stop the subsidies to corporate America whether they are farm subsidies or Blackwater subsidies and put taxes on bankers million dollar salaries and use this money to put Americans to work making AMERICA better.

I agree with all of this, Steve. Just don't see getting out of Afghanistan as politically viable right now; nor much else you list. You need to talk to the congressional republicans about all this.
