Tim, I think you and I are largely on the same side of the issues. Let me try. "You didn't just say you disagree, or even find them extreme, you called them looney." The above was re my comment that the market alone cannot solve the health care problem. I certainly stand by that. The market can moderate costs - but the technology of the medical business guarantees it cannot be cheap. I again submit that the working poor are the ones really screwed. As for guns - there are people who find any regulation intolerable Tim - I personally do not own a gun and I am uncomfortable being around them. Now I know they are a guaranteed right and serve a useful purpose. Please - the those who are extreme on this issue are dangerous. As an example - gun shows as I understand them that avoid background checks strike me as wrong.
