Two questions for twodog

How does one "work" gov programs? Are you referring to corporate subsidies? or farmers?

What is the issue with the American work ethic?
Don't Americans work more hours per capita than any other industrialized country in the world?

A tiny one - the overcompensated part but I guess if you've got that piss poor work ethic any compensation is overcompensation.

I probably can do better, but why bother? Every "plan" I have seen from the GOP so far is just more of the "Screw you Jack, I've got mine" variety. When people make it obvious that they really don't give a damn about me or anyone else but themselves I feel no need to be polite.
