Economy And Confusion

First - a quick point - apparently, "they" have decided to put Kings back on. Go figure. Now, I'll watch but I don't want the rug pulled out from under me again...maybe I won't watch.

But more importantly - what's the rush to push through half-formed ideas about finance and health care? Nothing has occured that hasn't happened many times in the past with either one.

So, why the rush? I would be far more interested in some careful deliberation and a well-thought-out plan rather than the hodgepodge, cobbled-together, unclear-agenda ideas that are being put forth as plans.

And at what point did we as a country start to demonize the value of asking questions and disagreeing (oh, right, that was a political device that came from 9/11 - asking questions is unpatriotic).

Personally, I want to know that the people voting in laws are ASKING LOTS of tough question. I want to know that folks have put in some careful deliberation and some fact-finding time on the matter. I don't want them voting in things because they feel like it's better than nothing. NO. Here's a thought folks, let's take a bit more time, ask questions, and iron out an elegant solution.

Please.
