ParticipantUCCal,
Totally agree. Thats why we either have to deadlock government (a la flu), so they can stop picking winners and loser. That means we have to live with the crappy picks we already have. Or we can limit government to the basic necessities, thereby reducing the number and magnitude of their picks…
The second option is just a dream I have from time to time. Its kind of like unicorns and leprechauns…
Participant[quote]Thats the difference between you and me.[/quote]
Translation: I am so high minded and noble, I care so much about “poor” people that I am willing to rob others to pay for their “needs”
I do not want to get into the merits of nationalized health and the like. I think reasonable people can disagree. But with our tax code the way it is (picking winners and losers and taking it in clandestine ways), our treasury is filled with stolen money.
If everyone has to cut a check every month to the treasury…you can be sure our government would act a good bit differently. At that point if the populous votes for free busing…who am I to disagree.
Bit of introspection for those libertarian types (myself included)…Do you give significantly to charity?

Participantyou missed something in that quote…
[quote]…basically those who steal for me…[/quote]
I think there rationale goes something like this…
If people steal (arbitrary tax laws I classify as theft) from my company I am screwed. Theft is the quickest way to loose what little POS job I have.One note about a pet peeve I have…”need” is such an overused word. I need air. I do not need medical insurance, or a free bus pass. Those are things I steal…

ParticipantI am one of those people. Certainly a national department of education is a complete waste of resources…I think states can handle this one on there own. There is something to be said for 50 separate and distinct laboratories for working out education related problems.
