GDP or HDI are horrible measures of standard of living, they both include gov expenditures.

The one problem with all this is no matter how much showcase there is for the failure of the nanny state the people will always demand more services. And unfortunately there are two remedies available to us, either repeal the 17th amendment or reinstate property requirements. Only then can the income tax be repealed.

One thing: Sweden has actually HIGHER standard of living than US, both measuring it by GDP per capita or by HDI. Lol!
Other than that, nice speech Dan!

Great speech on reining in our government spending. Thanks for posting and I hope many new Congressmen in 2010 will have determination to do this.

The US was not involved in Israel's nuclear program.
France helped provide the technical foundations. Once Israeli scientists had learned enough to grasp the technology the partnership was dissolved. Then, Israel continued development and testing with South Africa.
The US was largely indifferent towards Isreal during our Eisenhower years.

Outstanding job connecting those dots; not. The only one that makes any kind of sense to me pre-September 11th, 2001 is Israel acquiring nukes from the U.S. and France.
More seriously, though, I admire your principled stance. I sure hope you continue to hold it when our government feels it's time to intervene in the Darfur region of the Sudan.

No. That's complete bunk. Building military bases on the land of other countries, invading countries and occupying them, arming their enemy neighbors with nuclear weapons, and killing hundreds of thousands of civilians via bombs and etc.... THAT kind of behavior leads to airliners smashing into buildings. You have it perfectly reversed.
Dan Mitchell you should run for congress or senate.... its not too late for 2010
