Frank, I agree with much of what you say. Democrats want to create the illusion they are "protecting" the common folk. The reality is that their solutions create a dependency on big government. Akin to a new feudal state. <<If they are able to wrest complete control we will become a socialist country and productivity and values will wane.>> I am not sure about this however. I think they would take us down this path, but the political pendulum has a way of swinging from left to right in this country. That very thing resulted in the Republican takeover of Congress in 1994. Perhaps two years too soon.
