I have great difficulty understanding Messers. Bush and McCain. This does not mean that they are wrong, for I might as well be wrong. Are economy fundamentals sound, or are they worst since the Great Depression? There is a colossal gap between these two possibilities. I can understand the "adjustment" theory. The behemoth icons of Greed should go! But who is to say that the replacements won't be worse? The lifeblood of Capitalism is greed. Greed has a tendency to accumulate, and then periodically burst like a blood-filled mosquito. All ideologies based on greed are destined to die: Alexander the Great, Roman Empire, Genghis Khan, Nazi Germany, Soviet Union, the list is long. The greed can be for Power, Land, Mammon. Who can control greed, which is the absence of good? Only moral upbringing can, and that takes years. I wonder if Messers. Bush McCain get it! How can "fundamentals be strong," when greed is the key ingredient? Are human natures to change overnight? There is no magic wand for that. The human natures need to be changed by parents and schools. It may be too late now (Dr. Spock is dead, so he can't be taken to task). If I were the President, I would be declaring war on greed on all fronts, today! I would start with the Congress, the Wall Street, and the Schools. I would eliminate the Planned Parenthood and the ACLU - they have declared a war on morals! They gave birth to greed, while sending to death the unborn! I would then strengthen two-parent families, consisting of a man and a woman. Maybe, just maybe, we can still make it without going the way of the other empires.
