The only problem with that is that stimulus money has lots of strings attached. Government intervention is usually worse than any possible poor private-sector management. Government bailout money with strings attached is IMO a cure worse than even a fatal disease. (regardless of the party in power when it's being handed out) (I snipped a number of paragraphs of examples as being _way_ too OT.) -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
