The bond in its present form, wanting to demolish the newest school, is akin to someone personally saying: Well, my house needs a new roof and I want security installed. And my first thought is to demolish the house and build a new one on its spot. Sure, you'll get a new roof and a security system. But man, the cost!! I guess one could justify it, like this bond, by saying -- it makes sense to do this now because later on down the road it'll cost so much more to do this. I guess it makes it alright if someone else is paying for it. Right!!?? But think about it -- NO ONE in their right mind would personally think like this!!

The socialist/communist just had a massive heart attack! [Hidden Content]

Who?! LOL!!

One cannot run and hide from the fact that $156,000,000 is a massive amount of debt. And like I mentioned before -- kids in school now, if they stay in Nederland, will be paying dept service on this $156,000,000 when they become adults! Astonishing!

Mat, good question. I would say this: Jimma Carter created the dept of Education as a payoff to the teacher's union for their support. So, apparently it was not needed before that. Every state has a dept of Education. Just go back to the formula, whatever form that was, before he created it. Education seemed to work just fine previous to this creation.

Your opinion!

It is my understanding that LBJ moved the Social Security Trust Fund money into the government's general fund to help mask the cost of the Viet Nam war. We have nothing more than IOU's in the fund now. My suggestions: Stop putting into the general fund and keep everything in the trust fund. Wow, no brainer there! Then I would eliminate the Dept's of Education and Energy and earmark those expenditures to the SS trust fund. Remember -- these two dept's were created by Jimma Carter in the late 70's. Oh yeah, Carter also gave us gasoline lines. But that's a story for a different time. Anyway, those two dept's were not needed then and are not needed now. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Did anyone notice that when Mick Jagger needed a medical procedure that he came to the United States to have it done and not through England's socialized medicine?

New RNC Ad.

Not a problem. I didn't recall this ever being said.

Come on, WOS, slander? Unless you know something we don't, I'm not aware he's been sued for such. If so, enlighten us. Plus, we shall see if what they've done is legal or not. Who knows?! Now, if you are a lawyer then I will differ to your judgement!

WOW! Pretty incriminating! [Hidden Content]

I thought it was already established that the educational system in Nederland was excellent. Apparently you don't think so?! Explain your differing opinion on why you think it's so bad.
