Freedom to Fail I posted a response, that I would like to share and get your comments. "XXXX....sometimes you don't know what I really think. just the negative response to you. So here it is..... I believe that no matter what happens in Washington, this country is in for some more pain. I believe that the status quo doesn't work. I believe, that doing something is better than doing nothing. I believe, that the government's half azz efforts, have created the situation we're in. Amongst other half-azz efforts. Making laws that give entitlements to some of the needy, without being able to exclude those who would take advantage of it. I believe, that our government needs to step up to plate, or go back to the batters box. Either way this country will be better off. Get out of it, or do it right. I believe, that we use a bandaid approach to a gaping wound. When we should suture it up, or let it bleed out. I believe that the choices are to get out it and have massive bleeding, and a short term recovery. Or to get more into it, fix it, and have a long term recovery. I prefer either choice, to a slow term death. I believe this country's greatest attribute is to overcome the mistakes it has made in the past. I do not fear the mistakes of the future. For it is in the mistakes we make, that the proper solutions to our problems can be discovered. For those of you who would fight against us making mistakes, you need to accept it indicating our lack of freedom and our lack of progress. The way the future will view this country, will be as a time of the greatest freedom in human history. Not because of the successes granted by our freedom to succeed.... but to be allowed, by our freedom, to fall flat on our faces and get up again! |

Sleepwalk, Many lives will be ruined if they continue doing what their doing. Many more will be ruined if they pull back, and return to the old course. Sometimes to lessen the load, means you only have to carry it farther. Government spending lessens the load. Much like, NyQuil, it doesn't cure the cold. It just covers up the ills, and makes you sleep better at night.

Jiminy The premise you assert about Government spending its way out of trouble I believe is false. Its the spending that has created the mess we are in and further spending just makes the mess bigger. Otherwise a very good blog. "The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind."....T. Paine

60min.. It's not false. it's the bandaid approach. "Much like, NyQuil, it doesn't cure the cold. It just covers up the ills, and makes you sleep better at night." You're certainly are right in your views of the problems with government spending, however, you ignore the benefits.
