.....they simply squander your tax receipts.
1. Once upon a time moms could stay home and help raise children, instill civility and that sort of thing.
Do you know the single greatest bar to one-income family life?
Taxes.
I bet you pay some 50% of your earned income to government at all levels, federal, state, sales, fees, fines, charges of one sort or another.
No more one-income family.
2. One host, on WMAL, Washington, complains about 'National Panhandler Radio, NPR' getting taxpayer funds, and their stations gets nothing.
He's correct;
"In the end, then, local NPR affiliates derive something like 41% of their funding from taxes, either directly or indirectly.
As annoying as I find the bias at MSNBC or the New York Times, I will respect to the end their right to be as biased as they'd like. What they do with their money and whatever funds they can convince advertisers to kick in is their own business. The same does not apply to the likes of NPR. That's your money and my money going into their coffers and funding that unbalanced message. We need to demand that NPR either be pushed away from the public trough or be required to present a modicum of evenhandedness."
3. ".If the budget is accepted by Congress, the nearly $450 million spent annually on National Public Radio, the Public Broadcasting Network and a number of small regional public radio and TV networks would disappear. "
