No surprise there. Giving money to a government organization is like giving heroin to a junkie. except that the junkie might actually appreciate the heroin.

My son and his wife left California last month. They said it's a sewer. They're back in Coeur d Alene, Idaho. God's country.

California would be a nice place to live if it wasn't for all the liberal assholes fucking the state up.

Trouble is, Idaho is one of the places getting Kalifornicated. They didn't move far enough away.

Cigar got a facial!


You want to give kids something make it tanibloe like computers or lab equipment. You give money nothing happens just like nothing has happened forever when money has been thrown at it. Face it government isn't effecient at many things these days.

Government isn't efficient is putting it about as mildly as possible.

Government is failing at everything is a lot closer to the truth.

Except for wasting money. It excels at that.

My son lives in New Hampshire. He tells me all the Massholes are moving out of Boston because of the high taxes and regulations. New Hampshire has no sales tax or personal income tax. It raises the bulk of its money from property tax. Now that the Massholes are coming in they are demanding the same level of "service" they thought they were getting in Boston. So, taxes are being forced up in NH as well. Many residents of NH are joining the "Free State" movement and will take over the legislature completely and force the Massholes back to Boston. If the socialist could do it in Vermont then the Tea Party can do it in NH.

That probably holds true for all big liberal cities also.

Coeur d Alene is a beautiful area. At least for a while.
