I think it means that the federal government has consolidated too much power into itself that is being purchased by corporations who have also become consolidated powerhouses as a result of the excessive regulations imposed upon enterprise by the aforementioned federal government. Regulations that are so expensive that only the existing large corporations have a hope of complying with them, driving out competition from smaller companies and impeding the creation of new companies by entrepreneurs. The problems this nation is facing have one major thing in common, regardless of what the problem is. Consolidation of power. Decentralize the power and you have taken the single largest step towards making that difference in the life of the average working stiff that you are proclaiming to seek.AspenValley wrote: Just wonder what you all think it means when it makes no difference at all to the average working stiff whether George W.
