neither of these two scenarios is good right now.

Dibs- nor am I a left wing nutjob. I don’t care for unions, I am not for irresponsible entitlements, I think people who abuse the system should be held responsible.

I have to agree. Lech is the OT’s master baiter.
bxgrl, I’m not a rightwing extremist in the least. I’m pro abortion, pro women’s rights, and simply for less government, less spending and lower taxes.
I think that entitlements need more of a case-by-case examination and when the violations are flagrant, people should be thrown out on the streets.
