    F-22, V-22, “star wars”, de-regulation of banking and SEC, giving more public band width to broadcasters for digital-only to have them create more commercial-laden channels, free mining, free oil drilling, cheap grazing fees, sub-cost timber sales, railroad lines pulled up as “railroad” companies switch to taking resources from the lands they were given, contracting “security” overseas to guard Marines, showers that electrocute our troops, well, there are many more “consumer confidence builders” left over from the last 25 years.
