| Message | Rocket trains? Whatever. More like an old truck and a horse and buggy. Sorry capitalism demands that those that sink should sink. If you going to have the government intervene you can't play favorites and this bill would cause the government ot be fair in that it will not get involved at all -- I Support. |
