I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Some more on the debt we're downing in. Not as historically bad as one might think, when compared to GDP. However, please see the last line about future forecasts because of health care costs.

Best tweet I've seen all day, "@OTOOLEFAN: ATLAS SHRUGGED is a novel in which free market heroes defeat the evils of Socialism by going on strike & forming a commune."

Edit to add Another in the Art vs. Design
