   I think we're thinking of the same suggestion. . . hehh. . .   
      
   Those voting against the "ilegals" are doing grwat -- they use them for    
   cheap(beliow legal minwage) in their farms or estates, then make a big noise    
   against them to distract everyone, & to up the price on them for when they're    
   through with the current batch.   
      
   > Be nice if we had a check list of yes/no where our tax money is spent.   
   > I doubt those guys in DC or Ottawa would honour it.   
      
   Nope --for one thing, they'd be out on their collective benchwarmers first    
   thing!   
      
   I say there's a core set of costs that are must haves for everyone to    
   participate in, federally, (national defense, of course, & minimally required    
   amnounts to operate the government itself *sigh*, & others); let's vote on    
   therest of where our money goes.   
      
   & for rasises for pols -- they can propose a raise bill, but it only goes after   
   the next election, so if it's a bad move, the voters can directly respond to    
   it.   
      
   I mean, for you & me, raises go with merits & proven value to the boss.  Why    
   should these yutzes be excepted?

   That's wshen I finally bega to become a proper adult, when I realized that if   
   I could blame my tendencies & troubles on my dad, I must grant him the same    
   privilege & then I had to think of how far back that might go. Then I   
   realized  it's simpler to man up & take personal responsibilty -- If I knew   
   poker then as I do now, I'd decide that I'm going to win even with crumby   
   hands dealt to me.  (I do all the time)   
      
   I made someone fold 3 aces one time, & I had far less (only I knew this for    
   sure) in a live game a bunch of years ago -- fun stuff & a clear lesson in    
   life.   
      
   >> Not sure where the media gets its hate news from   
   > They like to take the worst of anything and make it seem everyone   
   > believes that.   
      
   & if they can';t find any, they're not averse to making some thing up out of    
   whole cloth, or to manipulate people or events so as to make them more    
   newsworthy.   
      
   You watch a "Live" newscast on tv -- do you know 100% for sure when & where    
   each block of video was recorded, or even created in a studio?   
      
   They've madesome errors, like people pointing out how the big crowd had    
   du8plicate groups of people pasted in here & there. Or when shadows indicate    
   the stated time is incorrect.  It's harder to pull it off now,m with millions    
   the world over easily seeing it via internet & analyzing it with new tools    
   daily. . .   
      
   Good.

   No kidding!

   > But the vast majority, 95 per cent or more plus are normal people.   
   > Opinions sure, but not nut jobs.   
      
   Yup, I've talked with those with wild opinions both left & right of me, &   
   even  more or less in my wedge; I mentally shrug & move on as quickly as I   
   can  extricate myself without setting them off.   
      
   I do remind some people, as needed, that they do NOT speak for "all" they   
   claim to speak for. Opinons are like rectums(recta?) -- everyone has one, but   
   only  the hot wind output of your own don't stink.
