Entry: Ron Paul Update Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/ron_paul_update#17809 Post contents: Interesting, but what's that editorial cartoon showing a bloated "Americas welfare system"? Americans could well have managed to take care of the sort of social welfare system that they have (in the land of 2-week vacations, no paid maternity leave, etc), if they did not spend billions upon billions yearly in weapons. You should rather had included a cartoon showing Americas bloated "defense / arms system". Totally idiotic, and will likely not change under Ron Paul. Reason being that if did try to make large cuts into the so-called "defense" spending, he would probably get assassinated. Little loopholes exists in everyones protection, you know, and if they do not exist, they can be arranged. Sent at: 2008 10 11
