I can solve it all
do what colleges and pro teams do
sell naming rights to all govt buildings
local firestation? how about a local nightclub
libraries? amazon.com, borders, etc.
think of the possibilities
no more state capitol buildings
How about "the Capitol One Bank Building"?

then legalize pot
and we could afford all this unnecessary bs
without taxing us into the next century
and hopefully avoid socialism

How about we have the rich pay some taxes according to their wealth?
How about we sell some of the 100 naval bases we have around the world?
How about we stop fighting 2 wars at once?

Maybe we could sell some of the giant swaths of territory which we dont use... Guam? wtf. sold.
Why dont we sell some of the giant monuments in DC?
Why do the people continue to ask for more things when we are in so much debt?

We are the wealthiest nation in the world. Why cant we pay off our debts? its because we dont have the desire to change our standard of living. Plain and simple.

health care is 1/6th of our economy
and once they control that,
they pretty much can run your life,
penalties for smoking, drinking, obesity
how about abortion? it doesn't matter
which side your on, the govt can then
decide who does and doesn't get one
and yes that is the first step to outright
socialism, and it won't come in with a bang
it will come creeping in one little thing
"for our own good" at a time

obesity/smoking discrimination
and how its becoming more
prevalent throughout society

Also, the nations I mentioned have socialized health care, and none of those things have happened.

On the other hand, our current system DOES have penalties for drinking and smoking, as reflected in your insurance rates.

the ones i mentioned
did and do,

bye now roger

1/6th of the economy is a ridiculously high number, and is totally unnecessary. Also, the nations I mentioned have socialized health care, and none of those things have happened.
