That's the argument terrorists use, especially when their targets are
local. * *But rebuilding from the bottom historically has been when
the worst evils are committed.

People have been better off where change continues without hitting
bottom. * *But those advocating hitting bottom do so because they
don't like forward change - they want to go back to a past that never

This sort of thing has happened before, and will happen again. the US
is not the Soviet Union. This will not cause the collapse of US
society. We have had the recession and deflation...still going through
the deflationary phase. In a few months we will get some real growth
and consequent inflation. When the value of the currency matches GDP
and other indices of real worth, we will get another period of
prolonged growth. While the ole boom/bust cycle is not well liked by
some progressives, it sure beats the permanent mandated bust phase
that result from progressivist policies.

What's more important is that the Blue Jackets are 3 - 1 to start the
season. The Sharks layed one on 'em though...man what a talented team
that is! The GM of the Senators needs to be taken out back and shot
for giving Heatley up to the Sharks! If they don't win it all this
year, they never will!
