That's the answer. Eliminate all services that are currently government funded. Toss out the baby with the bathwater!!

Man, the myopic and simplistic solution to complex problems. Do you really want a country with no opposing viewpoints? No opportuinity for the average Joe to at least thinking he or she matters? Eliminate public access television? Eliminate NPR, which in most markets is the only source of classical and jazz? Eliminate Amtrak, and alternative to other forms of transportation in light of increasing fuel costs? Eliminate farm subsidies? Well, you got me there...at least for the mega acre outfits...

What to do about the post office? Bring back the Pony Express?

P.S. "Every journalist has it out for the current administration...." A VERY general statement; unprovable and incapable of being defended. But, it begs the question: If it were true, then why is it true? Seems to me that 8 yrs ago the press was all over another president. I think that kind of treatment goes with the territory.

I heard an interesting comment today about the press. They no longer actually report on politics. Instead, they just interview politicians.
