Probably against roads, bridges, police and fire protection, the military, the FDA, the EPA, the USDA, and most of all, schools. Damned socialists are everywhere these days.

I wonder how many of them sent their Bush stimulus checks checks back because they were a government handout?

That's OK, those who "failed" have you outnumbered. Soon they will be inured to hardship and with little to lose. Then you and your pals will be in trouble. (some day conservatives will back gun control, mark my words)

Or you can back reform and we'll all do OK.
