I agree with the first part, but not the second. That car isn't worth it.

I do think we had to bail out the banks just a little, but not the way we did or to the extent that we did. Should have made them feel the pain in exchange. The way we have it now, they screwed up in a MAJOR way...and got richer for it. What did we just reinforce?


As for immigration, militarizing the border would only work if the people don't want the immigrants. Plenty of people don't, but as I tried to point out earlier, plenty of people DO, too. The business interests in this state have solidly prevented ANY action on immigration, no matter how tepid. AZ is trying to push them out, ID is trying to pretend to push them out while actually looking the other way.
