Greed seems to be the ultimate power we must contend with. People are going to do things that get them the most value with the least amount of work. That seems true of both Goverment and the private sector. We have to walk a balanced line between fairness and protection of the economic forces that make the country so successful. Right now it seems its erring on the side of fairness, which appears to be hurting the economic forces.

The pendulum will swing back and forth, but it is clearly moving forward alot more than back. The progressives attempt to change things and the conservatives attempt to keep them the same. There is nothing exciting about keeping things the same, which is why it always seems to swing a little more to change.

Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country

Never ever ever ever give up
