Ronald Reagan is God, at least in the hearts and minds of many Americans today. For those who are not willfully ignorant, a study of 'current events', 1985 style might be worthy.

The Drive to Kill Revenue Sharing - TIME

[of course Reagan didn't fail, nor did the presidents who superseded him, nor the Congress', in the sense that we can blame anyone person or anyone party. The critical issue today is we are a house divided and until the people begin to boo any pol who offers criticism after criticism, we will remain a nation divided.]

It's time for solutions and for all of us work together, for a house divided cannot stand. The real enemy to our Republic are those who hope the Republic fails, and there are many who do.

The US government has over stepped thier authority.

I dont give a damn what happens to the government. I dont need them.
 
And FA is the culmination of what the people who steer the right in this country want.

The constitution and its protections of the little guy have been in tehir way for centuries and they want it gone.

They now have personhood thanks to the right so its coming.

Good for you. I hope you recognize the company you seek: Timothy McVeigh, Lee Harvey Oswald, Sirhan Sirhan, Dan White, Charles Guiteau, Scott Roeder, Ted Kaczynski, Eric Robert Rudolph. How did their hate work out for them?
 
It is what the people who control the right want.

Your projections are noted. Shameful you havent a clue.

I wonder how long it will be before this thread just disapears?
The Right and Left have the same puppet masters. One day you may wake up and see that we are on the same side but we are being played against each other.

I'd say it's more shameful for a coward posing as a vet to substitute childish one liners for an actual defense.

You were the one toj ump to conclusions. A trait of the weak mind. Work on it.
 
Still no defense. Just more one-liners

This guys got bigger balls than you

I dont need a defense. But you need to prove I would welcome the company of those you stated.

Come on blow hard post up.

I do agree they've overstepped their authority...I wouldn't go so far as to say I don't need them. I do need them for things like infrastructure (I like my roads and bridges) and for things like foreign relations and defense of our nation.

That being said I DON'T need them for much beyond those things. I will take charge of my education and the earning of my own money to support my family. I will take charge of my own health insurance and being sure I have the education and skills needed to find a job that will supply such to me. I will be responsible for my own retirement fund and arrangements to care for myself as I age. It is not the governments job to handle these things, it is MINE.
 
How sad the right is, I jsut came from a thread where they ignored the cold hard facts just to attack me personally.

This country is so fucked with people like them.

Well spoken. Though in truth we have alway's been divided, with a mutable center that sways both ways. The perspective from both sides, when honest contributes to the overall picture. It's good to remember that in both camps. ;) The contrast is of value to the whole body, and does serve to curb misdirection. I'd rather a faithful friend willing to speak from his perspective honestly, than someone telling me what he thinks I want to hear. Better Citizen Patriots, that understand Statesmanship, than conformity without question or reason. Our problem here, is civility in discourse, not varying perspectives.

what is the point of your link as it applies to your post?

While politicians argue over comparative tax resources, fundamental questions about the appropriate federal role in local services seem unlikely to be resolved. City experts like the Urban Institute's George Peterson argue that the national Government should help out when it adds to local costs by establishing new standards, as it did in 1972 for water-treatment plants. Other urban advocates argue that welfare payments should be a federal responsibility, since many tightfisted communities export their poverty burden to more generous cities. New York City's Deputy Mayor Alair Townsend points out, for example, that about 14% of the homeless women and 8% of men living in the city's shelters are from out of town. Says Townsend: "These people gravitate to New York when things get really tough, knowing they will get a better deal here." Some analysts also place aid to higher education as a federal responsibility on the theory that students are highly mobile after graduation and their acquired knowledge is a national asset. Environmental problems that do not respect city and state lines, such as acid rain, air pollution and water contamination, clearly require federal help.

But when cities use revenue sharing to pay for local garbage collection, street maintenance, fire and police, rather than for capital improvements, health care, nutrition or housing, the program does not seem to be meeting its original purposes. Stanford Political Scientist Alvin Rabushka contends that city services in general have declined despite federal aid. "If we spent more and got worse--if spending increases didn't translate into better services--it's hard to prove that cutbacks will lead to any deterioration," he argues. That view may seem harsh to local officials struggling to keep their cities from sliding deeply into debt, but it was clear last week that revenue sharing, at least in its present form, was in deep political trouble.
