I've written all of my politicians, signed a zillion petitions. Not against taxes per se, but definitely don't want to be forced to ante up for some dunderhead's greed! So, what do we do? Hold "FREE AMERICA" demonstrations July 4???

---------------------------------
They pit us like dogs against each other and rake it in. And I'll bet they laugh when they hear dupes like you defend the system that fucks you over and rewards them so nicely! But the one thing they'll stamp out in horror as if it were the spark of conflagration is any whiff of socialism. That should tell you something.

We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from TAXATION. We're fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice: We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

Hello Kwicko,

When all our native auto manufacturers were running at 100% before the economic crisis, we still weren't getting vehicles to troops when they were needed.

And in fact we're pretty bad at getting any equipment to troops on demand as needed.

It's not a production problem. It's a problem of will. It starts at the top.

I wonder if they'll sell me the rights to the Pontiac name. I think I could bring Pontiac back if all I made was 1968 GTO's.

Hello,

There may in fact be a difficult time where any production is delayed by nearly a year. This of course depends on how we carve up the fallen companies. I suspect essential manufacturing branches will be fed to viable businesses, or simply nationalized.

But even if this were not the case...

If our president and our congress stood up with one voice and said, "We DEMAND that our troops get EVERYTHING they need!"

I'd be the happiest clam on Earth. And if we couldn't make that decree happen because of the short-sightedness of those self same people, I'd be doubly happy.

Because it would mean,

1) The important people woke up to a need.

and

2) They'd be appalled at their inability to meet that need, and be sure to never have that inability again.
