Debt doesn't mean anything if there is no world to live on.

<< Del, you care so much about the generation's to come your willing to saddle them with a few hundred more billion dollars of debt, throwing it away at world body organizations which do nothing but line their own pockets instead of clean up anything. >> Who are these people that are lining their pockets? I'd like some names. Why don't you start up an environmental cleanup company and cash in on that free money for doing nothing? << The reality of how the money is spent doesn't matter to you. As long as you feeeeel good doing it. >> How do you know what matters to me? Another assumption? << Maybe it doesn't bother you to leave our children billions upon billions of dollars of debt, but it does me. >> There you go trying to put words into my mouth again. Where did I ever say that I don't mind saddling our descendants with debt? I was very bothered when Reagan took the debt from less than a trillion to 2.8 trillion. Bush raised it to 4.3 trillion . << But hey? Your comfortable now. You won't have to pay the 80% tax rate our children will. Neither will your hero Jane Fonda. >> Show me where I ever said that Jane Fonda is my hero, and I will send you $100. 80% tax rate? Is this more Rush Limbaugh tripe? Apparently the numbers didn't sink in the first time, so I'll repeat them. There is not expected to be a deficit this year, and next year there is expected to be a surplus for the first time in many years, and that includes environmental programs. Did you send your thank you to the Clintons yet for reversing the trend of Reagan and Bush? Del
