By giving him a job building Edwards house! I am sure they are all legal. But has anyone checked? And Edwards will need a couple of yard men and housekeepers. So what side of that 2 Americas are you on MR Edwards?

>>RALEIGH — Presidential candidate John Edwards and his family recently moved into what county tax officials say is the most valuable home in Orange County. The house, which includes a recreational building attached to the main living quarters, also is probably the largest in the county.

“The Edwardses’ residential property will likely have the highest tax value in the county,” Orange County Tax Assessor John Smith told Carolina Journal. He estimated that the tax value will exceed $6 million when the facility is completed.

>>Knight approved the building plans that showed the Edwards home totaling 28,200 square feet of connected space. The main house is 10,
400 square feet and has two garages. The recreation building, a red, barn-like building containing 15,600 square feet, is connected to the house by a closed-in and roofed structure of varying widths and elevations that totals 2,200 square feet.

The main house is all on one level except for a 600-square-foot bedroom and bath area above the guest garage

Imagine all the fossil fuels burned to heat 28,000 square feet of space... Good thing he thinks about the environment. I guess it will be kind of like the PETA leader, cows don't care that she does what she refuses to think others can do because she really is on their side. Mama Nature forgives Edwards for thinking about her sometimes.
 
Spending excess is what keeps the economy going Damo. If all or even just a notable percentage of the people spent just for what they needed, our economy would collapse.
 
However, overspending on fossil fuels, at least according to Gore, is killing the planet. How can you be a Green Liberal and buy a 28K sq ft house? Taking up all those resources makes their heating oil even more expensive as well, supply and demand takes its toll.

So, the net worth to the economy would actually end up in the negative after a slight increase as people work on building the collosal structure. Of course such a large structure takes employees to keep clean, so maybe it ends up balanced. Either way, Mama Nature forgives him because he talks a good environmental game...

:D
