Good post. So my question is, what happened to that balanced budget law the Republicans were trying to push during the Clinton administration? It seems like the minute they won both houses of Congress and the Presidential seat, they abandoned the balanced budget ammendment push. Hmmm.

>It would be hard to sell to the wealthy... "What, I pay in $xx.xx and get the same as the slob digging ditches?". My WAG is that that's how Roosevelt sold the program, the rich get more than the not so rich. They like that.

Yes, I completely agree and figured the same.

>And on that cheerful note, I'm off to a cocktail party.

Yup. I have to leave for a conference after the football game -- was supposed to leave already, but it's goin' to OT!
