Although people feel very strongly about politics, I do not think  PERSFIN DIGEST is the appropriate place to vent those views. The purpose (I thought) of
this digest was to inform and educate subscribers about finance and investing through an exchange of questions and answers. I think some of the recent
posts stray well afar of this group's focus. Of course, the government affects our finances through taxes, social security, etc. However, lamblasting the
government  seems a waste of valuable space in the context of PERSONAL FINANCE. It degrades into partisan politics and subscribers gain nothing in terms of
their personal finance. There are plenty of other VERY APPROPRIATE dedicated forums for political discussion on the internet. Let's take the partisan
politics to those forums.
