I want lower taxes and smarter service. It’s not as easy as saying Republicans want less taxes and less service. I think that government is extremely wasteful and are horrible money managers. Too much red tape. Throwing more money at something is the easy answer and makes everyone feel good – especially when it’s not your money. The department of Education is a good example but politicians can’t bring it up because they would get skewered (“how on earth can you be against education!”). Ever since the DOE has been in existence our ranking has been declining – it’s bureaucracy that adds very little to the education of our children.
JoB, YES! Because of this one example more people will pay the fee – and – get ready for it – be protected by the fire department should their house catch fire! It’s a crazy concept.
OK, I’m out – I’m not going to change anyone’s mind and this thread has been hijacked.
