Beltfed,
Calm down. I never said the growth would stop. I said this could be used to SLOW THE GROWTH. That means it still grows, still gets into our lives, but less so than if this legislation wasn't in place.
While I agree with most of your rant, its a bit misguided since it has nothing to do with my point. Which is very simply, that given the current state of the US Government, there is a decent chance that this will act as an impediment (however small) to the current rate of growth in budget, intrusiveness and power.

p.s. beltfed - where were you when GWB was growing government faster than any other president before BHO. I'm not taunting you. I'm honestly trying to figure out where you stand. But are you anti-bush? Based on what you said, you should be. Lets not ever forget that Bill Clinton (whom I can't stand, but the facts are the facts) along with a Republican Congress balanced the federal budget.
Something which a couple of years later GWB, still with a Republican Congress, flushed down the toilet.
