.....more idiots, pay no mind.

Again, you link to the New York Times, who just make up their so-called "news". Then they expect me to trust them with my online information (Berkeley I trust, NYT I don't) before I can get on their site. And STILL you have not answered my response #112884, just five posts down.

(I've explained that before tom, ....you don't have to 'provide' them with anything about your personal info...... tell them your name is freeper, the machine that sets up the online subscriptions won't question you about it...) Before that I linked to the highly conservative opinions of the Heritage Foundation and you thought their ideas were idiotic.....

It doesn't matter where the link comes from to you, only that you don't want to believe that there is another opinion other than your own....

If you see an opinion other than your's, you say it's 'made up'...... (sad comment, after you accuse others of doing what you do)

Show me where I'm wrong, Pauly-poo. Do you really think repeating the same old thing, over and OVER and OVER AGAIN makes it true?

Show you where you are wrong? What for?

One would have to assume you are right about something....

What is it you're right about, tom?

That what you say is better info than professional analysis of the economic outlook?

You think too much of yourself...... I see no sources from you that support your half baked solutions to the deficit?

Got a respected economist in your corner there, tom?

Something that supports your idea that there's no problem with deficits spiralling out of control?

Now, again, show me where I'm wrong.

There, Misfit, you have just hit the nail on the head! It's his ego that he's stroking here! Nothing more or less!!!

The experts seem to recognize and comment on the fact that the 'problem' is not being addressed or corrected now, tom.

The experts recognize that current policy and proposed policies do not address the problem.

Your simple math says all we have to do is pay a few hundred dollars more per month in taxes.....

Your simple math uses averages which suggest that each American will pay the same percentage of taxes ..... (we know that's not close)

So, you think it's no problem.... on top of all the taxes we pay now to maintain government, we just have to pay a few hundred dollars more.... more on top of what we will have to continue to pay just to keep things afloat.... no big deal, a few hundred more a month is surely no hardship for anyone, eh?

Hey, no problem, eh? Tom will lead us out of this fix, ....just open your pocketbook a little wider. A few hundred more each month for years and years will be no problem.....

Forget that productivity forecasts don't agree with your assessment....

In your simple math world, it's all going to be alright....

(Like I said, tom, show me some reputable economic analysts who agree with your assessment. The article highlighted the fact that whichever 'side' of the political fence you may wish to find yourself, the analysts are agreeing that there is a big problem and their fixes, which you discredit and say are not needed, are presented from both sides. ....You seem to be a man in the wilderness, standing by yourself, saying everyone else has it wrong....... excuse me if I rely on people who know better.)

do you all need your own insecurities soothed?

PZ,
What are your feelings on Bush's desire to drill and pump more oil out of Alaska given the fact that it would increase your yearly state stipend?

Your assumption that each Alaskan will notice a change in their shares of royalty is maybe premature. The legislation has already been proposed that in order to lure in the investors, the state may have to give up major shares of the royalties on that oil.

Personally, I would just as soon they grant us back our subsurface rights. Then we would be like people elsewhere.... if I found oil or minerals under my land, I could develop them and collect whatever I could.
