Change is hard, and they'll step on their weenies more than once in the process. However, I'll wait until this stew is cooked before I pass final judgement.

However, right back at you with the same question. I'll post it in a different thread.
Except, if you understood late 19th and 20th century history, you'd know we've already been down the path the GOP is trying to revisit. For most Americans----it SUCKED. That's why they rebelled against unbridled corporate power in the first place. Ford, Carnegie, Morgan and the likes may have built industry but they were also colossal dicks. Slave driving tyrants. I guess we have to put our kids & grand kids through it to figure it out for the second time.
