“every penny we keep out of government’s greed clutches is one that stays in the economy …”. If the government is hoarding money, then the statement has merit. If the government spends the money, then, ipso facto, it is back in the economy where it belongs. Your carp isn’t that the government is hoarding money, it is that the government is spending money on things you don’t agree with.
In other words,
A very typical Republican.
Their problem isn’t with government spending,it’s with what the government is spending money on.
and their objection is not to giving free money away, its just that they would rather it go to fortune 500 companies than “people who wont work”.
1. Giving money back to the taxpayer is a safe proposition to advocate because it does not have a chance in hell to pass.
2. There is no extra money. The State has borrowed money it could pay down. The State has a huge pension debt. The State has the big Education lawsuit and its ramifications to fund.The state can advance pay certain activities that will allow it to save money.
Talk is cheap. Action is what matters.
Same story as last year, goes nowhere, nobody addresses the roads, we get fooked.
+100 – Sadly, that is so….
I’m waiting to see how many citizens’ lawsuits (based on a Federal Case named “India Towing Co. vs. United States) are filed against SCDOT for “negligent maintenance” of the roads. Under the “tort reform” law, one can get actual damages (and added attorney fees if the citizen wins), Would be a wonderful class action suit. Case can be found in Google.
BTW: website is still bouncing around. Took me 3 tries to get the above to “take”.
