GR,
Speaking of a "runaway train", you'll need to scroll the comments to #24.

What would happen if there was a "people's strike" on Feb 2, 2007?
The day that the ground hog sticks his head out from his hole, does or doesn't see his scarey shadow, but only that everyone hasn't shown up for work. The people have spoken once. Perhaps they need to speak again.
Somehow, this insanity must end.
Mad men don't listen. They justify.
If our great nation derives it's just powers from the consent of the governed, perhaps voicing discontent is the only option. Feb 2, 2007.
Stay home.
