Ja.  In the US we handed a huge amount of political power from one statist
party to the other.  Nothing changed, or if so it got worse.  Now we are
starting the process of handing power back to the first statist party, again
hoping things will change.  I fear they might.

Democrats, isn't that the outfit that we were told would rule for 40 years?
Perhaps it was a typo, he meant 40 weeks:

served banks interests, 56 percent thought it served corporations and only
ten percent that it benefited them...

They didn't ask me.  I would have said the stimulus actively harmed me, for
I was one who had to pay for it.  I would further say that scheme didn't
benefit banks or corporations in the long run either, but harmed them too.
Then I remind the pollster that corporations are made up of people.  There
are no horses working there, no dogs, no hampsters.  And then remind them
that the banks are putting to work the money of people; no horses etc
deposit money there nor borrow there.  Taxing banks equals taxing people who
bank there.

> ...We really have to deliver on the policies," she said... BillK

Ja.  I would like to call her and ask her to deliver her polices elsewhere
and work towards reducing the size and scope of Government Inc.
