Yes I can-lol!

It is the type of government that counts, the quality, the purpose, not the size.

I can say a bloated MIC is bullshit and not feeding the poor is bullshit and not structuring society to create a large middle class is BS. I can also say a huge government formed to defeat Hitler was exactly the right thing to do and well done.

<<.......You can't say that the only thing that is governing is pushing for the programs you want - and other parts don't count.>>


Before FDR we uncivilized. I can say that.

<<Before Franklin Roosevelt all those program you think of as governing didn't even exist. That didn't mean we were a country of the ungoverned.

Show us the jobs, Steve.

203K jobs, 7.0% unemployment rate, per CNBC

IIRC, the Fed was gonna do QE until unemployment dropped to 7%
