So Rob, you'd be potentially on board for my suggestion of microloaning as a replacement (partially) of welfare?

I need to gauge the internet popularity for when I start my Congressional run in a year or 2.
It's an idea I like a lot and is realistic. Never had the stones to get myself to talk about replacing welfare though

Also I suppose none of yall would be into this since it involved government, but this guy at work was talking about how Spain has a national lottery. I guess like the power ball/mega millions/ whatever but it'd be all 50 states. Let's say it was done over a period of time (few months, year whatever)
Would rake in a lot of money for the guvment, and more people would win! May be a smaller jackpot due to that but
if you win a million or two dollars for nothing who's gunna complain?

Yeah, I wasn't sure if it was feasable large scale in a developed country. 
Still need to mull it over though.
Not that it matters, the communist revolution is around the corner anyway, I hope you guys realize.

I have $37 to my name for 20 days yet I am a Conservative Libertarian. 

Actually, life isn't so bad.    My wife got a Lowe's gift card for Christmas, so she is painting our home the way she wants (thank God it's a color I really like).

My daughter is being a disobedient  now but she's only 14 months.  Still, some tough love may be in order.

My son is still my son- beyond my understanding of how human psychology works.

And I have Milwaukee's Best, so I'm okay. 

How are you?
