-Outsourcing to the private sector is ALWAYS a bad idea

So if outsouring is so bad why do you support policies that nessitate it? High taxes high regulations. and if you worry about the power of the state being used against the people of this nation why do you support giving the state more power? And disarming the cizitenry?

Very good article. It gave me more motivation to relocate outside the US as soon as I'm financially able. Most Americans don't even know who Bradley Manning is and that depresses me.

Then leave. Change your soiled diapers and go to the nearest exit. I'll hold the door open for you.

^^LOL, I have no response. Apparently you have comprehension issues. I'm saving and saving until I can retire young abroad and have enough money to visit family/friends often.

High taxes and high regulations do not necessarily cause outsourcing. If that was the case, northern Europe would have at least 25% unemployment right now, which they do not have. If your country has something to offer to industry, then high taxes and high regulations are not going to kill business activity. Please try more CATO/Heritage Foundation talking points

I see people every day that notice things everyone else misses going downtown.

On one street corner there is a lady who "noticed" the two giant mirrors in the sky that burned down the world trade center.

A few blocks down is the guy who "noticed" his neighbors were spying on him for the lizard overlords.

Another guy "noticed" that if he looks really closely at the TV every public figure is the same actor in the conspiracy.
