Good observation. In about five weeks, we will see how a single strand of copper wire, once sundered, creates chaos.
Look what is looming with Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Everyone with some basic education in mathematics can see what is a few years out. But, the politicians say there is no real problem and government would be the solution if there were a problem. Reminds me of when Barney Frank stated that there is no problem with Fannie and Freddie about a year ago. Look at what a mess the government education system is in. And to think the government wants to run health care too.
