I want a president who can solve
problems

The ones Georgie created?
George won't solve 'em. That's for **** sure.

You're not going to tell me you think a president
is responsible for the state of the economy a few months
(or even years) after taking office?
The problems facing our economy have been taking root
for decades. (Look at Japan's economy if
you want a glimpse of our future, decade of
slow/no growth).

Frankly, if Bush had not acted to stimulate the
economy to the extent he (and Greenspan) did,
we would still be hurting. That's how bad
things could get. The second dip that might come
as the effects of his economic stimulus decline may
be inevitable but I'm not going to believe Bush
caused it. And I haven't heard anything from Kerry
that leads me to think he has a clue on these
problems.

I'm beginning to think this country has to face the
transition from an economy based on growth to
one that can handle stagnation.
Face it, continuous economic growth means
one day we will have paved the entire nation and
still have a traffic jam.

Time to think about stabilizing the population.
