starting our own free weekly or monthly tabloid size newspapers

the internet is what they fear. bill and hillary klinton are being taken apart by something they can't control.

the socialists in the republican party fear the net.

mcain-feingold is based on old technology.

tax cuts are the only thing that matters. the insects in washington can't survive on the scale they are now without tax increases. that is the battleground; cashflow is everything.

I should have added, 'using roll call votes as the primary thrust of the paper'. People love roll call votes. Politicians hate roll call votes.

Liberals dispise roll call votes.

A paper, tabloid size, that is 12 pages long with tow colors, runs about 500. per five thousand printed.

Get a good illustrator to work with the writers and you have a paper that will be read by about 3.5 to 5 per issue printed.

If you can't raise $1,500 a month or issue in advertiseing revenue, you should be a democrat at DU not a conservative at FR.

It doesn't work that way.

The federal government finances its activities by borrowing; its spending is not limited to the funds that it takes in. It habitually "lives beyond its means." In practical terms it has furnished itself with the ability to create money out of thin air. Tax revenues are used to service the ever-increasing debt load created by borrowing.

This is another example of the governing class accumulating power at the expense of the rest of us.
