Peter; The problem is not going to be solved by bigger government. I completely agree. But more effective government could sure help huh? Ironically I just posted on another thread the thought that we were all guilty and that we all looked the other way as greed led us down a poor path. Having said this though, the article was all about blame and my thinking is if conservatives want to go down the blame path - they will pay a price IMO. As to bigger government - we're getting it and would get it if republicans were in charge. Governement got smaller under Clinton and exploded again under Bush. Gee look at Homeland Security! A whole new branch of government to gobble up taxpayer dollars. Soooo, my argument with the article - lets start with the truth, or even better yet, lets work for a stronger America. steve
