Good quote from Newsweek:
"It is also true that liberal democracies are notoriously unable to demand sacrifice from their citizens, outside of time of war. But political leaders, and the experts who advise them, should contemplate that countries that destroy their economies will cease to be liberal democracies."
Caller I recently heard on PBS during an election campaign (I'm not making this up):
"My Medicare only covers 9 prescription drugs for me. Can you promise me that I can get better medical care?"
