in many places, not so much where I am. I think your daughter is on to something though and tend to agree with her. We do need a more socialist paradigm in this country and I would go so far as to suggest that we might need to nationalize a bunch of corporate megacorps in the near future. I think that if the Rs want to crash the economy again or shut the gov't down or something as ignorant as that, it may be the only answer to our problem. I think we should nationalize the banks for beginners, but that's just my opinion. Though I must confess that I do have a master's degree in polisci. I tell my friends that the more you know and understand the politic system, the scarier this all appears to be.
