Think we have a good amount of unnecessary spending going on here at home also. <br />To your point of using fear, I've seen it here at the local level, many times. A city gets tight for money and the first place they want to cut funds from is the police and fire departments. It seems that this has become an effective strategy in getting their agenda passed. Threaten to stop the services the people need most in order to get them to allow increased taxes or in this case debt (future taxes)<br />Thanks Capt!JEDIRICHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07392154036320254082noreply@blogger.com
