 I don't know where "ours" is. However, what I do know is, the
 crime rate is highest in the South, lower in the Midwest, lower
 still in the North East, and in the middle in the west. You want
 to cherry pick high crime areas, but the overall trend is in our
 favor.

 RC> and who would that be?

 Those who need help. With the US govt complicit in sending jobs
 overseas, and the federal reserve having a decades long policy
 of holding down inflation by keeping people unemployed, they
 have at least that much responsibility.

 BK>>  No taxing means the govt *CAN'T* do the job it's supposed
 BK>>  to do.

 RC> Which is?

 What the people tell it to do.

 RC> C'mon, list all the services sans police and fire..

 I don't have a week to go through the list, and it wouldn't be
 complete anyway.

 RC>>> swore to protect?

 BK>>  When did the voters swear to protect anyone?

 RC> Its not rocket science Bob, the blues tend to foster and

 Since the "Aren't highly educated" tend to be red states...

 Why is it under "Red" presidents poverty and unemployment tend
 to go up, under "Blue" presidents they tend to go down? Seems
 you got your captive voting block philosoph backwards.

 A sound bite is not a policy.

 The more debt the US govt piles up, the more expensive it is for
 you to borrow, and the less is available for you to borrow. But
 I guess that's what Y'all want.

 I always try to have enough withheld so that I don't have to pay
 at the end of they year.

 And I'm being taxed enough, it's you who isn't.
