[quote=SD Realtor]So again, just trying to understand your logic dba. First it was, it had to be rammed through because it will not pass if we wait and really study it. Now it is okay it can be rammed through because previous administrations rammed things through.
My mistake I should have thought of that. Doing something wrong because it was done wrong before certainly justifies doing something wrong again.
Trying to compare South Korea to the US is not practical. In essence, the demographics of the population do not scale at all. Neither does the illegal immigration issues, nor the number of baby boomers we have aging. I would even venture to say South Korea does not have the welfare problem we have today. In essence in some situations it does work but in ours the solution is much more complex and will require more study.[/quote]
Like I said, it was the Dems wanting to ‘ram’ it through. I said I do not like that myself too much. I’m however inclined to believing that if not ‘rammed’ through, nothing will get done. If time is taken to ‘study’ this issue, nothing will be done. Strange logic but that seems to be the way things work in DC. Let me emphasize though me don’t like ‘ramming’ it through.
Funny though. bush/GOP rammed through invading iraq. and Dems ‘ramming’ through (although not done deal) the health care reform. i’d call it even…
How about comparing what US has (or rather doesn’t have) to western european and canada? I just brought up South Korea into ‘shaming’ us into action…
Remember, South Korea was the nation that brought us the junk Hyundai cars, although the perception seems to be changing.
