I agree Govt. is greedy and think about it all the time. In a similar fashion, Govt. is just as bad as the worst in Wall St or any other group. Let's just say the playing field is level with all sides equally good and bad. Therefore, why would anyone think increasing the size and scope of Govt. will improve any of social ills? Until we improve the moral and ethical nature of both Govt and Private sector, nothing will improve.

Perhaps what Obama said in his address wouldn't be considered a lie to a room or lawyers, but to average Americans, it was a lie.

Maybe some day Wilson's exclamation of "You lie" will be equated to "No, I will not sit in the back of the bus". Time for Civil Disobedience?
