vaclav kraus revisited

Yesterday I reported the warnings of the Czech president concerning government intrusion into the lives of citizens as a result of "isms". How prescient of the president . Today their is talk in congress of mandating the use of flourescent light bulbs and ceasing production of incandescent bulbs ( to the delight of "Phillips" the leading producer of the former), further restrictions on makers of suv's, and increasing subsidies for ethanol.The latter to the delight of farmers , speculators and hogs at the public trough but mighty tough on people who eat...The price of corn has doubled .
