Having a home shop means that I can use my $160 polishing setup (3/4HP
Baldor grinder that cost me $100 plus $60 wheel) to spend 20 minutes
of my valuable time to polish a $0.68 "low prices everyday" Walmart
spoon that fell into a disposer.

Close. Having the tools at hand to cover up the fact that you trashed
your
wife's spoon is well worth the time you spent.

You have to realize that it is not a $.68 spoon, it is a spoon she likes
the
pattern of and that they don't carry that pattern any more.

It is kind of like wasting money on a humidifier when leaving wet towels
on
the bed would do the same thing.

If knowledge is power, and power corrupts, what does this say about the
Congress?


It is obvious that Congress found another way to get the power.


Incorrect.

Congress has the knowledge of how to manipulate the system, this gave
them the corrupting power.
