Visualizing policies in a way we can all understand and occasionally trying to be funny. I'm better at the first part than the last one.

Very very interested in seeing your visualization of the Senate Health Care $848 billion baby gorilla. They say the impressive "savings" may help it pass. Can you help us all grasp the neglible nature of these "savings"?? Plus, it may be interesting to see the changes this will mean for the "high earners" footing the bill. Perhaps a visualization of their take-home salaries before and after... ooo and what those kinds of taxes have meant for the tax revenue of New York (mainly the loss they're hit with after the "high earners" fled those taxes). What happens when the high earners retire rather than pay payroll taxes? Or move to states that opt-out of the health care reform? (will opting-out mean the "high earner" tax doesn't apply to those states??)

When a nation's comfort is threatened, the fear drives citizens to hand over responsibility and control to their government. The Stimulus and Healthcare plans are steps in the direction of depriving freedoms.  Only Americans vocal in reason will be able to penetrate the panic. Thanks for being a voice of reason.

Lol, Dreco. Throwing around the term Keynesian Economics as if it's some sort of smart thing to suggest. The book you're suggest must be over 30 years or else the author is delusional because Keynesian Economics died with the end of Carter's administration. Proven false.
