remaining civil, and especially to Sarah for pulling this discussion out =

May your behavior serve as an example for all future inlammatory

no doubt
there will be more events causing further discussion along these lines. =
So it's
too much to ask the topic to be closed now. I DO hope, however, =
that ...
before Thanksgiving? ... we will be able to civilly conclude this =
and get
back to piano work...</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>Larry,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>>I wouldn't put a lot of money on that if I were =
you.</DIV></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We already have lots of money riding on it, whether we like it or =
not!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This conflict in Iraq has cost every citizen nearly $1000 in DOD
expenditures and lots more money in fuel costs. Another four =
years will
cost us much more.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Meanwhile, the stock market crash, following from widespread =
corporate
fraud, such as committed by Cheney's Enron, has sapped the more =
fiscally
responsible people of their hard-earned savings and their old age
security.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The proposed tax cuts that will go mostly to the wealthy will =
create a
revenue shortfall that must eventually be reconciled. Who will
eventually pay the piper? I suspect it will be the little guy, =
who will
have to suffer deep cuts in Social Security and Medicare, into which =
he/she
has invested a lifetime of payments. Meanwhile, corporate =
America will
have reaped most of the savings. This is yet another hidden way =
that tax
cuts can be used to screw the lower and middle classes, while duping =
them into
thinkiing they've gotten something for nothing.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So yes, we all have a LOT of money on the line -- tens or =
hundreds of
thousands of dollars for most common folks.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Peace,</DIV>
<DIV>Sarah</DIV>
