When they unionize the TSA voters do nothing. When the former head of HSA stokes security panic, demands nudie scanners be installed at all airports, signs a big gvt contract with nudie scanner makers, then leaves his office to go work FOR the nudie scanner manufacturer, voters do nothing. When the gvt steals from GM bond holders voters do nothing.

Sure most people fall for politicians who talk about needing more money for education, but the truth is the constitution provides NO ROLE for the federal gvt in education. It's supposed to be managed and paid for by the states. So about 80% of what politicians campaign on ("I'm for better education"!) is not even supposed to be the realm of the Federal gvt. I fear this age of incredible expansion of fed gvt power will not abate anytime soon. I'm long fnma only as a speculative bet. I'm almost holding to spitefully dare the gvt to do the right thing here! There's a chance the law will hold up, but looking at plenty of examples over the last 10-15 yrs, we are absolutely losing most of the freedoms we thought we had. They will gladly leave us with just enough freedom so that we can still wallow in the joys of American Idol, and forget to go out rioting in the streets bc the entertainment is too distracting.
