"Let's face it, the Wright brothers were able to teach themselves. Landing would be the hardest part, but if you weren't too concerned about using the plane again, it could be done" -- Words from a flight instructor interviewed by CNN
The 'government' is debating a health care package that could run a trillion dollars over 10 years. This is something they are 'debating', as to whether or not to provide health care for those who can't afford it, and possibly fining those that can but don't get coverage (and people wonder why I don't vote). The Iraq/Afghan wars are approaching a trillion dollars in cost, and it had very little debate. The powers that be (Bush, Cheney, Rice, Rummy, etc) blatantly lied to us, and now thousands of soldiers are dead, or wounded for life. So, in essence, the 'government' has no problem lying to us to create a completely useless war and letting people die. Kind of like health care reform, no? The 'government' doesn't care if you die because you can't afford health insurance. The people who 'run' our 'government' are not the smartest, best, brightest, etc.. not anything special at all. They're just salesmen/women. Basically, our country is run by a bunch of used car salesmen with a pitch on a clunker, and that clunker is the US of fucking A. The country is broken, and there will be no fixing it for a long, long time, if ever.
