I always enjoyed our tussles.

until we finally decide to stop listening to the thousands of special
interest groups and look at the country and it's people as a whole,
this will never happen.

it's no longer left and right, it's a hundred different directions on
a hundred different compasses.

which is why I lean towards 'less is more' when dealing with ANY
domestic problem.  no single solution will solve our problems, and
multiple solutions tend to cancel each other out.

let the markets work themselves out naturally, and eventually we'll
have some balance.
