what issues are most important to you?

I think state and local government should play somewhat of a role in the state's agricultural production and oversight mainly when it comes to maintaining competition and providing some oversight on certain contracts between large multinational corporations and local farmers who often find themselves in an almost indentured servitude role to those larger corporations.

I'm getting banned on Tuesday, so it's not that important to me, but you should think about this question going forward:

What are the chances that one party is right on every issue, and the other party is wrong on every issue?

Really think about that one. Ultimately, it's intolerant partisans like yourself who squelch the kind of dialogue that could lead to the BEST ideas for progress, which will often take input & suggestions from all sides - not one monolithic way of thinking.

Cowgirl is - fairly easily - one of the most respectful posters on here.

There is no excuse for your tone or behavior on this thread.

She is a nasty drug addled old crone whose brain is fried, she resorts to insults because she is incapable of reasoned argument.

"why small federal government

defend that idea" e #111

The following excerpted from U.S. Presidential candidate Libertarian Andre Marrou's
1992 stump speech.

"... the United States is increasingly socialistic under the Democrats & Republicans.
The Democrats are essentially left wing socialists. The Republicans are right wing
socialists. How do you define socialism? More money to government, more power to
government, more bureaucrats, and more regulations, and on and on ... .
The federal government spends 25% of the Gross National Product. State, county, and
local government spend another 22%. That's 47% of the Gross National Product of this
country being spent by the government bureaucrats primarily on themselves. That
leaves 53% in your pockets. You're the people who earn it. 47% vs 53%; how can we
get your 53% up to 90%? One and only one way, we must reduce the 47% the
government spends, down to 10%. That is the only way it can be done. Individual
Liberty is diametrically opposed to governmental power."

It's a shame that Internet pseudonym makes some think the rules of civility don't apply.

a) Vulgar vocabulary is an inadequate substitute for forceful self-expression.

b) Rudeness is seldom as persuasive as intelligence. Perhaps why they're rude.
"I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play, bring a friend... if you have one." -- George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill
"Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second... if there is one." - Winston Churchill, in reply

Lady Astor said to Churchill, "If you were my husband, I'd poison your tea." to which Churchill responded:
"Madam, if I were your husband I would drink it." *

taunt by a British admiral:
"You the French, are always fighting for money, while we the English fight for honor."
Surcof replied:
"Sir, people always fight for what they don't have."

Winston Churchill once commented to George Bernard Shaw on his thin physique:
"Just looking at you, people might believe the British Empire was ravaged by a famine."
Shaw replied:
"Just looking at you Sir people might believe you were the cause of it."

* These attributes have been persuasively refuted by historians. None the less those are commonly the ones referenced for that quotation.
