Might be cheaper in the long run.

And what politicians are willing to count on something happening "in the long run"? Several will talk a good game, but I don't think many of them are willing to roll the dice on something that will not somehow pay off during their term. See Chas, I'm getting more cynical about Washington than you are.

Perhaps we should join forces and start a pessimist club.

Try this on.

There seems to be a lot of info that says yes and a lot of info that says no. Where does one go to find the real true story?
