Politics con't

Since we had such a good amount of discussion, which has remained very civil. I thought instead of another comment I'd do another blog, so here it is...

Jason I would agree that Israel is a theocracy not a democracy and there was/is quite a difference. However, I think we need a type of safety net welfare system. Teaching economics I have done some (not alot) of research as to where our tax money goes. Here are some stats: Which may or may not be made up :)

1) Since 1950 we have spent less than half (percentage wise) on military/police/fire

2) Since 1950 we have remained the same in most other areas with two major exceptions....

3) We now spend 4 times as much (again this is percentage wise) in expenses for the poor.

4) We also now spend 4 times as much on paying off interest from the incredible amount of debt from the government. Which leads me to say:

Why trust the government to "fix" the healthcare problem??

Politics

Sorry for such a long time between blogs. Family is doing well, check Jamey's blog to read more.

Thought I'd throw out a few items to discuss for anyone that still reads my frequently updated blog.

What do you think about universal health care?

War in Iraq?

Who do you want to win election? Who do you think will win?

New York, New York!!


That's what I'm talkin about. About time the cheaters got what was coming to them. Loved how Belly ran off the field not watching the last second. Now the '72 Dolphins can open that champagne...
