The US came in second behind Finland; Hi ted! The Finn's public spending is about 52% of the GDP (USA 33%). One of the highest quotas. Almost commie level. Excellent education for everyone. Great "service publique" (transport etc.). Good health care for everyone. I'm impressed and that's the place we (Euros) have to learn from. To employ public money in an efficient way. Isn't that a hoot? Do you know how often I have heard the Scandinavians are the commies of the West? How they are lazy and their economies uncompetitive? They feed us a bunch of bull and the members of the Grand Ole Party fall for it every time. What do you think of november 2? Another 4 years of "Texanisation" of the US? More deep Cheney pockets and a lot of additional pork for the military-oil-complex? Its very tight.........we can only hope. Did you hear about the Norwegians taking out an ad in the WA Post and encouraging people to vote for Kerry? I think the Norwegians must be terrorists........working with bin Laden to sway the election! ;~) I still predict a landslide election for Kerry, as I did back in may. He's not so much different from "The Crooks" gang, but at least it's time to send a pink slip to the "Son" of the Dynasty. Oh there are differences.....for sure! At least, the Wizard gave Kerry a brain! <g> I hope you're right! ted
