I have no idea why certain Americans are so obsessed with this anti-government ideology. It's very bizarre.
Well i not anti government but the more the try to do the more the get in the way IMO.
Can anyone name a program the government runs that works like it should?
I do like some of Rand Paul ideas ............................................. Love him or hate him he is right on what i posted bellow.
Long term incumbency leads to politicians who seem to care more about what is best for their career than what is best for their country. With each successive term, politicians grow more and more distant from the people. It is time to put an end to the profession of "career politician," and impose limits on how many times a member is allowed to seek re-election.
In order to address this issue, I co-sponsored S.J. Res.1, along with my colleague, Senator David Vitter (La.). This joint resolution calls for a constitutional amendment which would place a limit on the amount of time a Member of the U.S. House or Senate may serve in office to a maximum of 12 years per chamber.
I believe in more local control over education, where states, localities, and most importantly parents can play a much more significant role in their children's schooling. The federal government has simply used its power to disregard parental rights, restrict teachers, and leave kids with an unsatisfactory education, unable to compete in a quickly advancing world. Innovation in education will never come from an overgrown federal bureaucracy, mandating standards and discounting local input.
I propose to restore the parental right to be responsible in educating children. I support reduced taxes so that parents can allocate more of their own funds to homeschooling, if they so desire. I also seek to prevent the Department of Education from regulating private and homeschooling options and will fight to keep the Federal Government's hands out of these promising alternatives to conventional public education.
Gotta love how some people view their own personal perspective, no matter how self-motivated, no matter how much it marginalizes others, no matter how antisocial it is, showered with baseless positive attributes instead of its actual negative attributes, and no other perspectives have any positive attributes. It's like Upside Down Day.
Yep, you've described liberals very well.
Quote:
Gordon Gekko said, "Greed is good." Some people seemed to have taken that as education instead of the sentiments of a man (Michael Milken, who Gekko was rumored to be based on) whom society determined was so transgressive that he's been banned from ever interacting with the public in the investment arena ever again. It's a bit like taking child-raising advice from Marcus Wesson, or political advice from Anthony Weiner.
Greed is good. It's what makes the world work. It's why the economy of every communist country has been weak. People want to be rewarded for their work. It's why the majority of innovation occurs in free market societies. People want to profit from advances. If liberals could understand that, they'd be manipulated by authoritarian politicians less often.
No need to explain it, we can all spot a racist when we read one....
disagree with your leftist views and dreams of an all powerful state and you are a racist or a domestic terrorist, we dont care about your name calling or personal attack....the opinions of fools are worth less then nothing.
Drastically less spending on bomb craters in the middle east
Massive improvements to aging infrastructure
How the massive debt the federal and state governments owe means they are in debt and cannot afford to just rebuild all the aging infrastructure ad then you have people that are against some infrastructure upgrade projects.
We need to Rebuild our whole power Grid, Roads, tunnels, overpasses, bridges, pipelines and right now the skilled trades are begging for people to get into one and are paying very well and lots of jobs to be filled as the Boomers who take on apprentices to teach their trade as well as in class theory and book work and in 3-4 years you will be a journeyman electrician, HD diesel mechanic, Pipe fitter, metal fabrication/welder.
Ok, in the age of the spectacular failure of obamacare, do you think people are seeing Big Government for how wasteful and destructive it is?
