We shall see what happens. When the Republicans had control of the House, they spent money more loosely than drunken sailors. Democrats are generally also loose spenders, but perhaps with control of the government split the parties will squabble over who gets to spend the money, thus allowing more of it to stay in taxpayers' pockets where it belongs.

I hear that.

 

Personally, I'm not that sensitive to taxes. Hate 'em like everyone else, but if there is a solid return, I'm ok with that. Guess it really comes down to waste with me. Maybe we will see less of it now.

 

My real concern is the change in direction where core American principles are concerned. It all comes down to freedom, democracy and equality. New legislation needs to embody those, or it does harm. The last 6+ years have seen a lot of harm in this regard.

 

Looks like the senate is going Dem too....

 

The court battles will start tomorrow I'm sure!
