You know, there used to be another guy around here that "couldn't understand" a lot. He posted early in the morning, always thought people were labeling him... funny, because even though the "couldn't understand" much, he still claimed to be right on every subject (goodness knows he always had THE correct answer). Funny thing about that guy... he changed usernames so much he was never around to defend his outlandish conclusions. Ha. Anyway, you kinda remind me of that dude. He'd remember me... I've never had to switch usernames.
Yup, it goes all the way back to lumbollo... remember him? I could name a couple of other screennames in between.

You should be ashamed of yourself for equating government workers with people on welfare with people who have never worked.

Ooh, you got me...I haven't tried to open a business. But if I did, you can bet that NC's tax rate wouldn't discourage me. Nor has it discouraged the thousands of businesses that have opened here over the years. Want to try again?
I don't understand the mentality of the "tax and spenders".
I don't understand the mentality of borrow and spenders. If Republicans had their priorities right, they would have cut spending before trying to push through tax cuts.

You are singing to the choir as I don't believe in borrow and spending either.
Perdue ran up a huge state debt which present and future taxpayers will have to be taxed in order to pay back the bond holders. In regards to cutting spending, I couldn't agree with you more. Cut the spending.
