NY Times Story on Pilot Population Decline

Very true Jose. I was simply evaluating the social engineering
that _I_ feel is societally regressive (i.e like income taxes
and other government programs). I think some tax credits _are_
a good idea because they encourage people or businesses to
produce things (generally).


So some tax credits are good. Which ones? Do you suppose other people
might have a different idea about which tax breaks are good and which are
bad? Do you suppose this might explain in part why there are hordes of
lobbyists trying to influence Congress?

Why isn't profit motive sufficient encouragement to produce things?



But to your point, If I were a strict Constitutionalist (which
I am not really) I would oppose all of that stuff. Some positive
social engineering can be good but too much of it (which is
really where we are no I believe) is a very bad thing.


So when should the federal government adhere to the Constitution and when
should it not?
