Yeah, and Bill Clinton signed off on it all... Clinton's economic advisers were from the same school as Reagan's... We do need to reregulate, but are the current people doing anything? They want to make GM's leadership grovel, they want to send busloads of Acorn demonstrators to scare people that get big bonuses... the current leadership are third worldish punks and street organizers..
At this point in time Alan Greenspan is willing to blame anyone or anything to hide his own faults. Lets face it, I don't know that we should be listening to Greenspan a whole lot. He is one the main architects of the financial meltdown.

It appears to be 6-4. Anyhow, it appears that McCain states believe that the program for tuition, health care, etc. is a good job and they are correct... Personally I'd rather live in a Blue state.. with high employment... and skiing for old folks... Vermont! Yes, thank you ET. I can stop coming here now...
