Re: "You sound like Ebeneezer Scrouge." That's not surprising, haqihana, I AM parsimonious <GGG> (& a fiscal conservative....) "your mention of my words being liberal to be an insult of major proportions." Well, 'liberal' is as liberal does... 'feelings' don't really come into it. (Still, most people divide 'conservative' or 'liberal' into two further subdivisions: whether the labels are referring to one's SOCIAL views, or FISCAL views. Thus: 'social conservative', 'fiscal conservative', 'social liberal', 'fiscal liberal'... or any combination of the previous). You'll note I only referred to the 'liberalness' of you 'fiscal' views (I know nothing of your social views... you might well be a SOCIAL conservative as well as your views seem to be FISCALLY liberal). That combination of views (SOCIAL conservative / FISCAL liberal) is very common these days. Fiscal PRUDENCE, balanced budgets, SMALL government = the position of a fiscal conservative. Fiscal IMPRUDENCE, unbalanced budgets, BIG government = the position of a fiscal liberal.
