But I'm less impressed with his credentials and more so respectful of his service to our country. Whether I fully agree with what he posts is not important. He is dead on correct about the importance of small businesses to our economy. And yet time and time again both major parties cater to large entities that have time and time again lead to the demise of "Mom and Pop" operations. I think tax relief is a good way to stimulate an emerging economy. But from what I'm reading this economy is receding. So let's get creative with taxation. Like maybe a "flat rate" and reduction of any agency that doesn't really contribute to our needs.I'm sure Mr. MacMeekin can narrow down the broad scope of what I've just written. I look forward to reading more from him and Mr. Townsend as well. I find it quite nice to be so well informed and entertained at the same time.

The government’s bailout of $170,000,000,000 without any accountability for AIG just goes to say that the more things change, everything remains the same.

What’s next?
