@RAY PREBY
I wish I could say I have a good answer for you Ray. I don’t know if it’s possible to solve the mess we are in with politics. But, of course, “the deciders” would have you believe that your government is on the case and working on fixes to solve our economic woes.

I think the only real solution is to educate ourselves and those around us that the solution is not more government intervention, but rather less government intervention. To accomplish we have to make a coherent and convincing case for this and many of us are doing as such, but it’s difficult to get the word out when there is so much politics “clouding” up the issues, so to speak.

Well spoken. I look foreward to your observations and insights, perhaps because I seem to share your views. There may be hope for us yet.

How can we construct a government where decisions are made based on long term goals that improve our country, rather than decisions made that only benefit the reelection of the politician? I think politicians are reacting quite rationally to this economic crisis based on the rules of the game. It’s better politically to be seen coming to the rescue now than trying to slow down our overheating economy before we explode. I believe any congressman seen trying to slow the expansion of personal wealth (home equity?) before the crash would be soundly beaten in the following election.
