Do Federal/State/Local Governments Create Jobs?

What did Lewis and Clark contribute? How about Columbus? Taxes paid for their journey's.

Taxes paid for Columbus' journey?

Do you have to attend classes to be that stupid or does it come naturally?

Native Americans paid for Columbus!

They should have. As backward as they were, anything would be an improvement.

No concept of the wheel, no animal husbandry, no horses, no written language, treated their women like pack animals, cannibalistic (some of the Southern Tribes [Aztecs] were completely reliant on cannibalism)....

Sing me a song, tell me a tale, but don't me give ANY bullshit about the noble Red Man. They were Stone Age savages.

In theory government has no money, unless they tax. They create currency, but the value of the currency is the production of the American worker and what people attach to that. This is why government merely redistributes money, and it does so at a loss in value due to the labor it requires to redistribute.

Word Salad ^^^. A statement which is ridiculous and nothing more than an echo of right wing propaganda.

Yes, taxes fund government, on all levels. What the taxes provide is the measure of their value. Is there waste in government, yep. Are there private sector businesses and industries whose net benefit is out done by the cost-deficit, yep (see Tobacco, Alcohol and the gun industry)

The people who consume those products don't agree. One of the intrinsic personality flaws of the liberal is his belief that he has the right to determine for others what is in their best interests.

What taxes provide is of no net value to me.

The people who consume tobacco and alcohol in excess miss work more often, suffer chronic disease, and thus raise the health care costs of all.

Yeah, so? It's for them to decide if the product is worth the money, not you. That's called freedom, a concept that is alien to liberals.

Do you ever think (can you think?) before you post? Maybe Rabbi isn't the dumbest in the land, you sure are a close second, if not the leader.

I see little evidence of thinking in your knee-jerk compulsion to control everyone who doesn't behave the way you want them to.

"Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters."

"At first Columbus went to the king of Portugal for money for his voyage, but the king refused. Finally, King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain gave Columbus the money he needed for his voyage."

Did the King and Queen of Spain work for the money they provided Columbus? Methinks the two of you ought to study history, and see how the Kings and Queens raised money. Calling someone stupid, or using vulgarity to cover one's ignorance, is the epitome of the stupid and the asshole.

A great read is "The Real All Americans". Combines history of "Manifest Destiny" and American Football.

Monarchs owned substantial property, then and now. Queen Elizabeth is one of the wealthiest women in the world.

How did going to the moon benefit the taxpayers?

You ever use WD40? Great stuff isn't it. There you go.

$100 billion to get WD40?

$100 billion to say our ******* flag is flying on the moon

Again, how did the benefit the taxpayers?

All of the spin off technologies and off the shelf products made available, for the ease and convenience of the private sector.

You have to prove the equally useful technologies wouldn't have been developed if the Space Program had never existed.

You only believe so, much of what I post threatens you with Cognitive Dissonance (well it would if you could cogitate - something you've never proved you are capable of doing).

LOL, this ^^^ is one of the dumbest comments in history. Given the many dumb comments by BRIPAT, that is some accomplishment.

Your modus operandi is to accuse people you disagree with of being dumb simply because they disagree with you. You've never posted a shred of proof that anyone you accuse of being dumb is actually dumb.
