Z, > The concept of the federal government as a "spender/lender of last resort" when everything else has ground to a halt is not irrational. That's the thing. Everything else has NOT ground to a halt. > Spending money on wars and a military that is more costly than that of the rest of the world while cutting our revenues to give money back to the rich is irrational. That viewpoint of yours, "Give money back to the rich," is not only irrational, it's also another line straight out of the class warfare playbook. There's nothing altruistic about "Robin Hood" tax schemes. Tenchusatsu
