The Iraq expedition will be the last. We simply cannot afford another. The world will have to grow up. Yankee come back will be the new tune.

When the baby boomers hit the medicare system we will have to cut military expenditures. It is a simple fact.

We can tax outselves into oblivion, and the Chinese will go on polluting.

You could write a book about that. You could call it...

... An Inconvenient Truth.

Oh.

Plus, China and India will have the jobs there, not here... We can tax outselves into oblivion, and the Chinese will go on polluting.

I am all for alternative energy, but I wish to do it SENSIBLY not POLITICALLY. Main reason I am for it is to get this country and ultimately the world OUT of supporting those nuts in the middle east. Take away their wealth, supplied by the industrialized world, and you will take away their ability to support and wage terrorism outside their own borders.
Science will ultimately solve this problem but its gonna take time, in the meanwhile we should take PRUDENT steps to alleviate the problem. jdn
