Pat -

[...Socialism has not worked in other parts of the world; Do you think we have such a caliber of politicians and bureaucrats that it will work here? ...]

Without exception, we have the best politicians and bureaucrats that money can buy. -g-

Pat, shhhh! Momma Bear has made it clear that she intends to vote Libertarian, but that if she doesn't, she'll go for Algore. I certainly encourage the Lib. vote for her!

Now, if she was leaning Lib. over Repub., I'd go out of my way to convince her otherwise. But, under these circumstances, the more Lib. votes, the better. <g>

Pat, just wanted to make sure you saw the footnote that I attached to that statement. I fully believe in personal responsibility for one's self and wouldn't want nor expect the gov't or you to pay for my dad's medicine.

"but the government wastes 25% overseeing the transfer"

Wow, only 25%? Has the gov't gotten more efficient, or are you an optimist. -g-

Regards,

Barb
