Wouldn't it be nice...


While they are at it, wouldn't it be nice for these ladies and gentlemen to come up with a consistent definition of a terrorist?

Terrorism of all shapes and forms affects us with same brutality as do these unregulated financial markets. It leaves death, poverty and tears behind similar to what subprime lending and other financial engineering instruments have done to so far. How about deciding on a clear definition of a terrorist and then agreeing to hunt them down wherever they might be...

Our future generations would have a good shot at peace and prosperity, if we tackle this single most issue of our times in a fair and consistent manner. To me that would be much more significance than talking dollars and cents!

Yup...Noble thought...

However, in Freakonomics...and elsewhere...major psychologists believe that Fear is the most powerful emotion.

Now, if these politicians got rid of the single most important emotion to them...on what planks would they win future elections?

Frankly, I don't believe them much when they say they want to fight terrorism...all hog wash...
