The New Deal of the 1930s had a different focus. Maybe you were thinking of the Great Society programs of LBJ in the 1960s. Otherwise, this is sounding like complaints that the grass is long again two crummy weeks after you mowed it.

It's a complaint that many people have. People are tired of supporting baby mama's, the multiple kids that baby daddy had not intent on supporting and dumping on the tax payer.

You think I'm the only one who thinks like this? Really?

I didn't want to waste my money on a government that pointlessly invaded Iraq. I didn't have any choice then, and you don't have any choice now. Learn how your world works, especially the limits of your role within it.

Are you aware that the vast majority of federal spending goes for other things? Defense, Social Security, Medicare, and interest on the national debt make up over 60% of all federal spending.

We could kick all those mamas and babies into the street and you'd barely have made a dent in federal spending. But than I've noticed you don't do much research before you post.

Oh, no -- the numbers are insufferably clear.

Nor did I want to waste money on Iraq so hey lets keep sending even more money to the government to spend as they see fit (a waste). Lets raise taxes and give them more of our money to waste.

Everyone, when government gets our money they spend it in ways we don't like so lets just send them more money!!! That will solve the problem!

That didn't really offer a viable solution. Maybe you should re-read the question.

How about force feeding birth control to the baby mama's since they can't seem to form the word "no" when the man comes calling. if the man has a couple of illegitimate kids to other baby mama's on welfare, what makes the woman think if she has a kid to him think that she is speeecial?

Don't woman have any pride in themselves anymore?

Not quite... Toyota was offered the plant along with the Union and chose to abandon California for a perceived better business climate and now Toyota USA is planning to do the same...

It was Californians that first embraced the small, underpowered imports hitting our shores.

As you stated... Toyota was not willing to carry the plant IN CALIFORNIA... however, no problem in Canada and Texas

Why would business, individuals, etc... continue to accept high taxes/regulation when alternatives are available?

Many women don't have a choice. Ever try resisting a hormone-fueled 300 lb 16 year old? Basically many of the males are weaponized humans, even when unarmed.
