Sorry I did not flag you on this before. What is really amazing I propose abolishing a US government agency and the opposition screams you can not de-fund that agency because it is not costing you money. If it is not costing any money why are they complaining about not funding the agency?

They can get a corporate charter in any state and operate as a private enterprise. If someone wants this function performed it does not have to be a US government function any person can set up such a business as a sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation.

One does what one can so this is something that I think will be good for the Republic. It is actually amusing the comments that I get of wanting these programs for my personal gain.

I dohave some ideas on how this relates to teh AWB but I will share those later once they have become a lttle more coherent.

No need apologize to me my man... Whether you flag or not, I see your post 95% of the time. I'm always "Out there" somewhere!

I am a pessimist big time on this issue. I firmly believe it is an action specifically designed to level the playing field globally. And it is working... slow and sure.

Anyone who disses this as free trade is one naive individual, or a major stockholder.
