Let me guess. We all have to set up Personal Investment Accounts just
to get I-69 built.


You know what?  That's fine.

Seriously, one of the big problems I have is that our government is
mirroring our credit card society.  We want everything *now* whether or
not we want to actually *pay* for it.  Between Medicare prescription
drug coverage, Katrina relief, the Iraq War, Homeland Security, etc.,
we are spending more and more - but taxes are staying the same.

Jon, we ARE paying for it. How much in taxes does the average household pay? How much of that do we actually benefit from? I'd MUCH rather see the government build roads for us instead of spending my money on illegal wars and paying criminals like *** Cheney and the Enron CEO.
