This is America, right? Then let the market decide.
If we are going to decide what size car people should drive (guess we should let the government decide who is elegible to drive the SUV's? Gee, I bet that turns out real well), then why don't we let them decide what size house everyone deserves, who get's to own a motor home, who get's to live in the parts of the country that consume the most energy cooling their homes.
Better yet, we sholod let the police enter people's houses at will when they think they may have their A/C units turned down too low.... Where does it end? I for one don't want to find out. Believe they tried this in the good ole USSR, to rave reviews...
Was at least glad to see that the largest vote on this poll was in the Let the People Decide category.
Think I'll go out and start my 2 HUGE SUV's and let them run all night while I turn the A/C down and get a good night's sleep...

By any chance have you asked these questions of any Vietnam vets in your office?Laurence said:I'm curious, do soldiers really think those of us who have turned against the war think we are going to shout "baby killer!" and spit on them when they get back? Do they know we seperate in our minds the sacrifice of our brave men and women in the armed forces and the mistakes our civilian leadership has made?
