I have friends who are now going off the deepend in complete terror & paranoia just like friends did after waco. I have more faith in America, our government, and capitalism here in the USA. The pendulum swings back and forth, but not much really changes in the longrun. The Repubs will bounce back in 2010 after failed dem policy proves up. Maybe we'll get another Reagen then?
You live your life in a sensible manner; everything will be good times in America.
