My only discrepancy is regarding his assessment of most Americans being whiners. Some, maybe most, would fall into that category. I feel like he has lumped those people who want to see a value for their hard earned tax payer dollars into the category of whiners. I think it is only fair that I see value for my dollar. If I'm a whiner for that, then so be it. I call that desire normal.
