I don't know what's worse, they take American's savings and spend it, or they take America's savings and buy (take over) private companies. Isn't that called Fascism?

"..another thing to break the treasury in a few decades when the IOU's come due. " It will not take a few decades. The day of reckoning is coming IMO within 5 years. Bob

Don't they learn? Unfortunately, they HAVE learned: OPM* is an easy target and has no limits. Just like the proverbial goose. It's a fool's paradise, and there WILL be a reckoning. My hope for the Obama administration is that it will, by its outrageous actions with spending, tip this country over the limit so that we have a revolution (hopefully a bloodless one at the ballot box) which will result in smaller national government, responsible (read smaller) taxation, limits on entitlements, and a return to our Constitution as our paradigm for government. I am not happy contemplating the alternative. *Other peoples' money
