I am ALL for building infrastructure and not about making statements - accept 
that it keeps our voice inthe press - notice the republicans have pretty much 
disappeared!

Our point was to give examples to offer a real alternative - otherwise folks 
are just going back to giving up and thin that Patrick is right that there 
just is no other money- So point is not a "statement" point is hard facts - for 
general education (to counter people returnign to apathy) and for our allies in 
coalitions and our allie si nthe legislature to have a different reality to 
keep in mind - Love, G   (you shoul dhave felt the energy in the room with the 
legislators who support single payer and the MassCARE coalition!)
