We've got 2 trillion coming in and owe 11 trillion and are going to to attempt to take on universal health insurance and medicare for the baby boomers gimme the books and let me make it work. and don't forget to put the toilet seat down. k? numbers are the simplest thing in the world when you don't make out like king of the universe and invent non-real number stuff. it is actually quite so simple to balance the budget. it is. but senators and congresspeople have to shut up, cause they only mostly protectly their own. none of that. pure numbers. period.

I keep telling you, for 40 years we Americans voted in the wrong people. People who believed ("government was the problem, not the solution--like schools??)and did not know how, or want to, develop funtioning egalitarian societies. We liberal dems knew how to do it, and would have done it, but the people would not vote us in. The American people preferred a general who prettymuch only played golf, to Adlai Stevenson, one of the greatest statesmen of all time. The peoeple voted in a maniacal Nixon over a solid, brave intelligent humanitarian George McGovern. The people voted in two Bush's over much smarter and dedicated dems. The right wing power houses do not think in terms of efficint governments. The right wing leaders care only for power for the few at the top, and the people are fooled by all their smoke and mirrors to gain power. And that is the truth!
