I've seen nowhere any word of how we will pay for this war? I'm not a history expert but I imagine every prior war in history came along with some type of plan to pay for it in one way or another (e.g. other budget cats, taxes). Apparently this Admin thinks it's above all that stuff -- just ask for it and get it and let the chips fall weher they may. Continual tax cutting at a time of ballooning record deficits, rising costs and war is beyond unprecedented. The accounting scandal that is the Federal Government is beyond obscene. It amazes me how people just ignore it. I wish I didn't fear that the Fed Gov's accounting and budgeting is steering us toward the possibility of an extended economic downturn. I think it's giving Greenspan nightmares because even if he won't be around I think he actually cares how current poliicy will effect future generations, which is more than I can say for some others who currently run Washington DC.
