And then there is the real world where, under the Bush administration, federal taxes as a percent of GDP are lower than they have been since the Eisenhower administration, EVEN with Bush's increases in defense spending.

How on earth do you combine low taxes with free tertiary education?

Luckily, I live in a civilised country, where I actually have a realistic choice between more than 2 parties.
In the 2004 election we got to choose our President from candidates from all these parties-

CONCERNS OF PEOPLE (PROHIBITION) PARTY
CONSTITUTION PARTY
GREEN PARTY
LIBERTARIAN PARTY
PEACE & FREEDOM PARTY OF CALIFORNIA
PERSONAL CHOICE PARTY
PROHIBITION PARTY OF COLORADO
REFORM PARTY / INDEPENDENT
SOCIALIST PARTY USA
SOCIALIST EQUALITY PARTY
SOCIALIST WORKERS PARTY
ALTERNATE (SURROGATE) SOCIALIST WORKERS PARTY
WORKERS WORLD PARTY

Did you get to vote for a President? Or are such decisions left to the legislators to pick? What country are you from? MARK
