Buzz...have you listen/read the news over past fifty years?

"MIGHT," its been done, over and over.

Got a few recent examples?


PS: It's the new "norm," to have someone else pay.

It's only the *new norm* for weasels, scoundrels and theives looking
for an opportunity to be weasels, scoundrels and theives.


Savings and loan crisis

"As of December 31, 1995, RTC estimated that the total cost for
resolving the 747 failed institutions was $87.9 billion." The
remainder of the bailout was paid for by charges on savings and loan
accounts[1]?which contributed to the large budget deficits of the
early 1990s.

Have you lernt anything about all of the gummit tinkering that led to
the crisis?


People who can't afford houses are put in houses.

Yep, that was the game....imprudent banking practices...sub-prime
loans, which tanked in a worldly economic mess.

All directed by a gummit who wanted things to be Fair©.


Oh, btw, in those areas affected, you are now paying more property
taxes, because of their game. 'Collateral damage,' you know.

That's simply not true, and frankly, absurd. My area was affected and
my property taxes went down (but, I'm in a County essentially void of
liberalism, so if the property value goes down, the property taxes go
down).




Let's see, what happens where there is a "cost over-run" via defense
industries?

The same thing that happens

Behind the times?

Uh, you're the one bringing up 40+ year old stuff (as justification
for being a theif today). And you ask me if I'm behind the times?




Lockheed C-5 Galaxy

Cost overruns and technical problems of the C-5A were the subject of a
congressional investigation in 1968 and 1969.

The U.S. government gave loans to Lockheed to keep the company
operational.[22]

More government interference. The people responded and voted Johnson
out. Too bad they stopped there.



My, my, you want those poor university students to "pay their way,"
while industries and other countries "milk the system."

No

But, that's not the norm, for Republicans:

Reagan administration scandals

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reagan_administration_scandals

Fascinating.

Did you look up *clinton Administration Scandals* in wikipedia? Don't
waste your time..... it's not there.

"Wikipedia is written collaboratively by largely anonymous Internet
volunteers who write without pay...."

I guess those who have time to anonymously write for wikipedia aren't
interested in detailing the clinton scandals, and anyone who might be
interested in reading about them doesn't have time to write 'cause of
those pesky, old fashioned things called JOBS.

Wiki is a good srouce for you.
