We don't know where we're going but we're on our way. The Unabomber's answer was to stop going there. I prefer to go there anyway and find out where we are when we get there and argue about where we are going and where we should go during the journey.

Our Speaker of the House feels the same way. She recently said something like: "We have to pass it (Obama/PelosiCare) to find out what is in it."

When it comes to legislation, I feel quite the opposite. When it comes to furthering development, I would tend to agree that we should generally proceed even though we cannot predict all resultant outcomes.
