"I think my wife is right - people should work if they can"

I think your wife is right, too.
Where are the jobs?

" I'll eat it with my vet status,"
You shouldn't have to. Cutting back on health care is a pet peeve of mine, since I spent 10 years with the VA.

"we should have bit the bullet and adopted a single payer plan health care."

It's never too late. Maybe president Hillary's coattails will bring us a dem supermajority and single payer in '17.
I haven't figured out what to tell insurance workers who ask "Where are the jobs?"

I like the theory it is better to raise taxes on the rich than means test.

We have matter, regular and dark pulling on the universe and something pushing on it accelerating it.

I think Henning Genz believes that is vacuum energy. I am never sure I get any of that stuff correct, so I m just throwing that out there. For no particular reason except I know you think about that shit.

The book is "Nothingness" by Henning Genz. He is a German theoretical physicist. I have been reading the book for about 10 years-lol. And am about to go back to it again.
