This is dangerous, for Thomas Jefferson said that we should never trade liberties for security. However, it is looking like the Bush administration want to do away with them.

Unfortunately, many Americans never heard what Thomas Jefferson (or was it Ben Franklin?) said...and they want the government to take care of them, no matter how much it costs them in taxes or freedom.

Just look at all the people who are hollering for the government to pay for their medicine.

Yes, and I'm pretty sure that the prescription drug plan (a dolled up term for the induction of socialized medicine) will be passed. If you've ever been to a Town Hall meeting, that's all the senior citizens talk about. Granted, I realize that prescription drugs are outrageously high. However, that has more to do with the non-ethical price gauging nature within the pharmaceutical industry.
