Such strong conviction that you can see the future! You can get high dollar for such skills, you know. All that talk, all those adjectives, all that self proclaiming and still I wonder if you can define the word 'affordable' as you use it in this context. Knowing that 30% of what you demand is for lavish salaries and profit, tell us what the fuck you personally mean when you say 'affordable'. I saw the Clintons do what you seem to think is Gospel. They got nothing but grief, harassment, and guess who did not get elected last time. That craven way brought us a Contract ON America. The loss of the majority. But hey, you see the future and offer only opinion and rhetoric to prove your standing, so you must be able to define one word. Affordable. And it really should not take multiple paragraphs, and it does not need to contain criticism of me, or those like me, nor does it need more anointing of yourself as a wise man, a knower of reality that all others can not grasp. It simply requires a definition of 'affordable'.
