... As to the present administration going headlong towards bankruptsy,
all the previous ones have paved the trail.


You mean Reagan?


Even Clinton.


Hardly. Clinton actually balanced the budget, remember?

He did? When? When was it supposed to be balanced?


Look it up, if you can stand to face the facts.


... Even he admitted that he raised them excessively.


When?



Do a little research.


In other words, this is the latest from right-wing hate-talk radio and
it never really happened.


You are not very smart.


Possibly.

... Can not understand what you read.


???
You mean you can't understand what I write?

... I am for the
Libertarian stand, but mostly they push the pot button.


When & where? Baradnik barely mentioned this in his campaign last year.

We have several Libertarians elected in local positions. Mostly they
seem to be common sense conservatives of a kind that is getting rarer &
rarer.

If you want to see what the Libertarian Party is *really* all about,
read this

Perhaps you will do a little backpedalling, or perhaps you'll quit
altogether talking about things you know nothing about.


.... Fiscal responsibility? 15%
inflation? How long to double prices at 15% rate?


About 4 1/2 years. Know how to work 'the rule of 75'?

So, did you look up the origin & definition of the word "shinplaster"?
Are you advocating a return to the good ol' days of extreme monetary
swings & national fiscal panics?

... Remember Jimmy Carter
years?


Yes. I also remember the early Reagan years, and the massive gov't
spending that was his prescription to end 'stagflation.'

Funny thing, how come Bush & Cheney's massive spending has not given a
similar boost to the economy?

... The overall tax burden in 1950 was about 22%, now it is about 50%,
What a job killer that is.


You just plain don't have the facts.

For 1998, the total federal budget was 29% of GDP. Do you think it's
almost doubled since then? How can it, when Bush & Cheney have cut taxes??

I suggest you get in touch with reality before making these kinds of
dire pronouncements. Or it may be that you'd prefer to live in
right-wing fantasy land, and that's OK by me... just don't try to drag
the rest of us in there with you. You already have enough company in the
form of "Bert," "P.Fritz," John H, NOBBY (although you may want to watch
him, he's actually a Socialist infiltrator) and the other wrecked.boats
fascist whackoes.
