This article. That’s what’s wrong. Any deficit greater than 0 in a non declared war is wrong. Sure 3 is less than 10. In that case Ted Kennedy was better than Ted Bundy. But they both killed people. Jeez.

I agree

I don’t need a lecture from a debt addict on why he needs more debt. We need to cut it–the debt–off

I’ve done some thinking…

…about these budget negotiations. Why have them behind closed doors? Why not have a video feed that people could tune into a watch? I bet it would end up way way WAY WAY differently. Then people could see things as they develop.

Now, I’m sure there would be details that need to be worked out. For example, could they pause the feed? Under what circumstance? I can see the need for that…just like I can see the need for some off-camera discussion, etc…

I’ve got to think about this…

Why the price difference? Can they loan the eBook more? Simultaneously? I could see it if they also charged more for the physical book…but they don’t.
