Michael Tomlinson br> Camp Habbaniyah, Iraq /p> p> If Big Mac says, "No more!" to Big Oil he can put to rest the Big Lie of the Madam Speaker, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and the rest of the Democratic Party. If McCain announces that the GOP platform will include the complete dismantling of all corporate taxation and wealth redistribution (i.e., corporate welfare), he will strengthen his outreach to fiscal conservatives and will show that he, unlike Obama, is serious about solving structural economic problems and not just turning every which way like a weather vain blown by the latest idiot wind. Many think that "economics is not his strong suite," but what can be simpler for his (and the American people) understanding than zero interference. Less means more: more innovation, more free flowing capital, and more money in the people's pockets. Obama is most excellent at obfuscating while McCain is the man with the "straight talk." What can be more straight, and less Obama, than stating the government is getting out of the business of minding corporate business? br> -- Ira M. Kessel br> Rochester, New York /p> p> I would like to believe Republicans teaching Americans some "basic economics" regarding oil would turn it into a winning issue for them. But considering the years of re-distributionist nonsense that's been shoved down our throats--under the banner of "fairness," no less--it could be a hard sell. br> -- Arnold Ahlert br> Boca Raton, Florida /p> p> COUNT 'EM
