But considering the alternative... What choice do I have?
I've started a thread to discuss defense spending here: http://greekchat.com/gcforums/showth...threadid=56850

As far as the medication entitlements, this really disapointed me. The government needs to completely overhaul its involvement in health care, and it should be based on a market paradigm. Bush has advocated the MSA concept first proposed by the AEI, all while pandering to seniors with BS legislation that is just tinkering around the edges of a flawed system. Dubya really talked out of both sides of his mouth on this one.
