That's really up to the people, JD. If we as a people are willing to stay informed
write and call our Reps with our ideas and vote out the ones who want to
smoother us with overpowering govt, the size can be limited.

Case in point, Chris Christe, NJ Governor in office for the same length of time as Obama.

He has cut every program across the board, limited all taxes to no more then
a two pecent increase a year, cut out unnecessary programs, taken on the unions and won.
He just turned down a new tunnel under the Hudson, would have been nice, but was unaffordable.
If it can be done in Joisey, it can be done anywhere.

What would you suggest JD, throw our hands up in the air, join the "do nothing party" and let them get away with what's going on in Washington?
That's what they always count on, complacency and loss of memory.

Oh, and btw, last time I looked I was still in my gourd.
