Hey Mike, What do you think about the new kid's retort to your "out of left field" commentary? Diane certainly has a certain measure of flow once she gets on a roll. In fact, she expresses my sentiments, quite eloquently, as well. Do you think you and Ms. "Spit and Fire" can find any common ground?
|
The power of the purse only goes so far due to the short term and fickle nature of the economic powerhouses in this country. It becomes even worse when the free market and government are in cahoots as well. I think you and I would agree that an enlightened American electorate is an oxymoron.
|
The truth: The pivate sector should be mistrusted. But, we have the "power of the purse," and the stock market, where we can "vote with our feet," and sell the stock. Government by definition is a monopoly and we have no power over it, save the election day for an enlightened electorate.
|
This is probably the number one reason I like you; both as a politician and a person! My question to you is this: if we are so quick to distrust the government (which I agree with you 100%), shouldn't we be wary of the free market system for the same reason?
|
The reason people do not trust a majority within government is the truth / fiction vs. reality quotient. Most politicians trust that the majority of the public can only digest so much truth, so they mete out a measure of truth with their fiction. I'm different. I can only speak my truth.
