I wish I were young! No, I got a late start. I'm 50, actually.

"I wish I were young! No, I got a late start. I'm 50, actually."

Well, if not young in age, you are young in life experiences having children that young. You'll be gaining a lot more of those in the coming years especially when you kids get into their teens.

Hi Roger,

I guess there is no place to start except with your first jocular comments about general tendencies.

If, as you say, you feel that government (through the executive) should be kept small and limited in power, how do you reconcile that with the assertion the safety nets and social programs (beasts of money, control, taxation and power) should be set up and administered by that same government. How can a small government, limited in power, take large taxes and make a big redistribution bureaucracy functional?

Government makes a poor tool to plan outcomes with...it costs so much that the power aggregates to the flow of dollars.

Wow, just checking in to see if the Kitties were fed their dinner. Appears they may go hungry this evening.

For what's its worth, I'm impressed. I believe you might have the record.

Good Luck catnip, I mean rogserv.

Do you know what Winston Churchill said? He said:"If you aren't a Liberal at 20,you have no heart. If you aren't a Conservative at 40,you have no brain."

Okay,Roger,guess what you have none of?
