Thanks for the vote of support....Karen,<BR/><BR/>This is Ed. Thanks for the vote of support. I'll keep chugging on the economy, the housing market and what I see as the underlying reasons for the bubble and what we need to do now to extricate ourselves from what people don't yet realize will be a monstrous downturn.<BR/><BR/>You'll see that my solutions are probably going to come straight from Ron Paul's playbook. But, first and foremost we need to get out of Iraq. I heard the authors of a great book called "The Three Trillion Dollar War" on Tom Keene's show on Bloomberg. Here's their book:<BR/><BR/>http://www.amazon.com/Three-Trillion-Dollar-War-Conflict/dp/0393067017/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1205237153&sr=8-1<BR/><BR/>Needless to say, those funds could have been and still can be used for domestic programs.<BR/><BR/>And one problem I've always had with other Libertarian's is dogma. They are so fixated on the free market. The real world doesn't work that way. So call me a "populist Libertarian," and I'm sure you'll find common ground!
