    There are two trains of thought on this.

    The Typical American Voters who donate their change to someone who is using their money to get into office.

    And the Typical American Homeless, who are looking to get donations of change outside of buildings and offices.

    They are both looking to get high on other people's money.
    They'll both lie to you when you ask them what they are going to do with your money.
    And they'll both forget you as soon as you grease their palms.
    The change I'm looking for, but know we will probably never see, is a government who works for the people not special interests. For the family who have a tough time paying for soaring gas costs and feeding their family, not the fat cats who have more money than God.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    That is why I like the idea of the limits on donations.

    But, the way huge companies get around THAT is offering to make donations in the name of their employees.

    ---------------

    Here's an interesting point about the gas problems we are having.

    Gas (barrels of oil) prices dropped 10 bucks in the past week.
    Why? People are being smart and cutting back on the use of gasoline.
    My idea? Boycott one company and one company only.

    They get a glut of oil and MUST cut their prices. The other companies have to follow suit in order to be competitive.

    ---------------

    The 'change' that is promised really isn't crystal clear.
    It's like promising everyone a trip somewhere. You get everyone on the plane and you can't go anywhere because the pilot didn't think about where he was going....I'll be danged if I am going to show up for a trip with an unknown destination.

    When was the last time a president followed thru on his promises after /he got into the Oval office?

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
