The African-Americans really didn't "fight" to be non-slaves and have equal rights except in the southern states. The former slaves escaped most times by help of abolitionists from the North with the underground railroad. Slaves in war states were freed in 1863, others were freed in 1866. The 1940's through 60's, yes they actually did fight or but don't confuse the two time periods. Women, did truly fight for it. Don't try to re-write the history of pre-1860's American.
Government is the problem but the issue is the people aren't the solution. Look at the whole gay wedding issues with those who are "religious" and deny business to gays for example. Many people say let the market settle it but that don't always work. If there are no bakers friendly towards gays in your area, you are stuck and are these businesses truly religious or are they religious when they want to get away with discrimination? Yes, the Memphis bus boycotts and the lunch counter sit-ins DID work and a few of those who opposed the gay weddings have closed down but yet you have states trying to ensure the ability to discriminate due to religious conviction. The issue is your right to express religion ends when it discriminates against someone.
Since you apparently live in fantasy land and can express no opinions other than those fed to you by your masters, I am done with your nonsense. Goodbye.
Bill Clinton "famously" got us out of a freakin loooooonnnng Republican deficit,& created boo-koo jobs as well,something no one has done since!!!!!
Now Bobama........can't say anything good about him.
It was an on the books surplus, one they took from social programs to offset from. But in 2000, that practice slowed laying to the massive debt under Bush. To tie back to the original topic, I don't think that even Paul can run back the debt. I'm s not saying it is a runaway train, but like a train it has to slow to a stop rather than a hard stop.
