Oh, FOS = Full of Shit. Took me looking at that a few times, before I got it. LOL. I'm still not up to date on all the acronyms used in this day and age.

Anyway, back to your post. I'm sure that's the way you see it. However, I think we're just talking past each other. As I've said before, Obama and Romney aren't the real power brokers in this country. They are the props. There are bigger issues in play here and deeper root causes of the pain the American people are being forced to eat. I choose to focus on those issues.

I realize it is a bit like tilting at windmills. Ron Paul tilted at the very same windmill for decades and didn't get very far. But I'm getting older now and one of the prerogatives of old people is that once you collect enough of life's riches, family and otherwise, you cease feeling the need to only tackle the practical matters in life. So if I'm entitled to anything after all these years of hard work and practical focus, then it's finding a windmill to tilt at.

Monetary policy is my windmill and Don Quixote and his sidekicks, Hayek and Mises will be my guides. ;)
