The addition of this type of high R/P stuff only serves to reinforce the idea that happy motoring will continue indefinitely. But some think posting big numbers gives their "side" a point in the doomer vs corny online game.
The legitimate object of government, is to do for a community of people, whatever they need to have done, but can not do, at all, or can not, so well do, for themselves -- in their separate, and individual capacities.
