I think you are likely correct. Immigration for sure is a very hot topic that IMHO isnt gonna go away till they build that fence and enforce employer rules more stringently. The economy may take a dive if the Fed isnt careful, that would be a shame IMHO as non of the current candidates had anything to do with it but obviously the Republicans would probably take it on the chin. Health care IMHO is way over blown. Comparing our system to the world we are not doing that badly. Personally, I wish they would expand medicare down to younger levels (say 50 and retired) and have the younger people pay the full premium (imho that would STRENGTHEN the fund) but I dont believe healthcare for our very young, the portion most now address is nearly so bad as let on. First off its very cheap and easily obtainable for people willing to pay. I hate to see our entire system put on its ear over a less then serious problem. jdn
