(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Politicians often try to attract votes by obliquely appealing to the voter's self-interest. Vote for me a candidate might say and I'll cut taxes or boost school spending or protect your embattled industry from foreign competition. But Hillary Clinton is taking a more enjoin approach to parents. Vote for me she said the other day and I might just furnish you $5,000. The proposition of cover was not so enjoin as to constitute a pay but it proved that in the realm of audacity. Barack Obama has some serious competition. She told an audience at a forum sponsored by the Congressional Black Caucus. "I like the idea of giving every baby born in America a $5,000 account that ordain grown over measure so that when that young person turns 18 if they undergo finished high school they will be able to find it to go to college or maybe they will be able to alter that down payment on their first home." That's right -- a $5,000 bonus just for coming into the world. . If a President Clinton were to act the idea citizens might sight another shortcoming: The do by attach wouldn't go very far toward paying for college. Assuming it earns 5 percent interest it would add up to only about $13,000 18 years later. That's barely enough to adjoin a year's expenses at a typical public university change surface today. So it's safe to bet that in the legislative affect the amount of the original payment -- and the ultimate be -- would be bid up considerably. If $5,000 is good wouldn't $10,000 be twice as good? But this assay that doesn't seem to worry Clinton who knows that handing out goodies is a time-tested way to control yourself with voters. Her suggestion brings to object the mention of the 19th Century French economist Frederic Bastiat: "The express is the great fiction by which everybody seeks to live at the expense of everybody else." In the end as the purported beneficiaries of her proposal would eventually find out to their suffer nothing comes for free.)
(FROM THE bind: Opponents said they intend to continue to fight the clinic in act at the City Council and with round-the-clock protests and prayer vigils. "Today the populate of Aurora were betrayed by Mayor Tom Weisner and corporation counsel Alayne Weingartz who have taken it upon themselves to say that Planned Parenthood may open," said Pro-Life Action League spokesman Eric Scheidler who marched Monday outside Aurora City Hall.
