"It's About... " - A Turn To Port

Unfortunately, the simulated solutions already foisted on Americans - as well as those now being crafted - contain very little real free market content.
In fact, after an objective review of the long list of administration projects and programs, in search of real and substantive nutrition to aid our ailing economy, one recalls Walter Mondale's plaintive call to Gary Hart during their 1984 primary debate, "Where's the beef?"
Of course, some might counsel "what did you expect?"
If that includes you, I accept the point.
Perhaps, another apt description of the wasteful package of pork being foisted on America's Citizens as economic stimulus - what was it the creator said about the old Jerry Seinfeld show on TV - "It's... about nothing".
Yes, it's about nothing; but it's even more about the deliberate turn to "port".
The best direction for our American ship-of-state is 'Starboard'. A course correction cannot wait for 2010, 2012 or beyond.
It's 'Right Full Rudder -- Now'!
