I do appreciate the protections afforded us by some regulation. I don't appreciate the entrenched Republican leadership any more than the current Democrat leaders, and would like to see a Constitutional party gain traction. I am disgusted by the continued expansion of the nanny state, and the lifelong umbilical cord provided to the non contributing. And, according to OMB published historical tables, your statement about the reduction in civilian government workforce during the Clinton years is true. I can't find a similar table listing consultants and contractors. Airline and transportation deregulation have provided tremendous benefit to US consumers. 1978 -- ATL to PHL, usually $250+ rt, 2010 -- same route can sometimes be had for $175 rt. Trucking companies used to hold nearly all shippers to published tariffs, now most anyone can negotiate 55+% off. The strong in both industries survive. These savings usually wind up in consumers pockets. Must be a full moon, I'm feeling wordy. I skip sweet tea because it settles at my waist. Can I brink my own Makers and ce?
