Hi John:  What is your point here,  that it doesn't work well when government takes over private business?  I'd probably agree with that.  I can't imagine, for example, that the costs of health care would go DOWN if our government took it over.  I think it might be as insane as the current workings of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, a sinecure for bureaucrats, notmuch help for the Indians...

Best, Jimbeaux
