does it take to change a light bulb?
Unfortunately, only a simple majority. If the government Idiots in Washington have their way, the open market won’t determine what kind of light bulb you have in your home. While compact fluorescent light bulbs are more energy efficient than incandescent, do we need congress to tell us which one to use? I think not.
Madness takes its toll. Please have exact change.

Coming to a country nearby today (ours) REAL ID.
The government wants us all to have a number in their national data base – a REAL ID. You would not be able to do anything basically without your ID card. Proponents of this system see only the benefits. But, there is a really big downside that I see. The technology that is proposed, can be hacked (what can’t be hacked?), the information could easily be misused by the government (and others), and would create another giant bureaucracy, costing the taxpayers (that’s you and me) millions of dollars. Remember , if you want something really screwed up, just get the government to do it.
Next, they will want to chip us all. This sounds really far fetched, but is do-able right now and has actually been proposed in some cases. Another slippery slope we don’t need to slide down. As I have said before , the government is not my mommy. And the person that tries to chip me will be wearing it up his ass.

When you dig a hole you can’t get out of, the first thing you should do is……..QUIT DIGGING!!
The “economic stimulus” plan is a hole. What bright person moron thought it was a good idea to spend more taxpayers money to pay taxpayers so they could pay taxes on the money they were giving themselves?
No more shovels, please.
I personally, will be sending my “stimulus” straight back to where it came from. With a few choice comments.
