As for my financial state, my wife and I would be considered "upper-middle class".

Yeah - that's why your wife has to work!

She chooses to do so. She isn't much of a "bare-foot and pregnant" type. My salary alone is more than enough to keep even our current bills paid.

Hardly the issue though.

The Cato institute has a lot of extremely good research on most of the issues of the day. I suggest you set aside a few hours and read up on some of it.

You know there was a time before the Cato Institute was created to keep middle-class earnings down, when the spouse did not have to work.

Guess your wife has to work to provide a few extras in your life besides paying bills.

I get the sense that tuco bad is not worth the time. I clearly told him I was paying for my own retirement and he twisted it to say I wasn't. I am not a teaher - so he is proven to be an iventor of "facts" in addition to being a liar. He is twisting his emotional head around screaming liar liar and in fact he has been proven to be lying about a great many thngs in this post alone.

He is a liberal.

He is emotional.

He does not value truth or facts.

He feels free to lie and distort to further his cause because the end he has in mind - to him at least - justifies the means.

It is sad to see a human being degraded to such a pathetic situation. Reminds me of gollum in Tolkiens works. kind of a sub-halfling reduced to wandering around wishing and searching for the power he once had re-iterating his well worn phrases and once in awhile stopping for "something crunchable, something tasty". Disgusting to all that see him. He lives in the shadows and slime. Hating all because he no longer has the power. Bitter to the end. Allowed to remain alive because of the pity of real people around him, utlimately he destroys himself as he attempts to steal the power one last time....

Hey tuco-bad - "goll-llumm"

Amen to that...I've been watching your interchange for a while and it has been very amusing. Artios, your post at #27 completely nuked him once and for all and he didn't even seem to realize it. Dead Corpse, you were just kicking around a lifeless sack of losing cliches....

Tuco, you just don't get it do you? You are Gollum going up against these guys:

Either get some rational arguments or go back to your cave... You don't stand a chance....

Thank you for admitting that you were wrong and providing the link to the actual stance that the CATO Institute takes on borders. It does not and never has, advocate open borders. Thanks again for clearing that up.
