Never said I wanted in to "your" problem. Just make certain you keep it "yours" and in AZ by actually dealing with it. Got state and local tax increases? No? How 'bout gated communities? Security guards? (I hear a lot of BIG TALK out of conservatives who claim state and local governments are prepared and able to deal with social welfare problems locally. If that is true then why did the states, en mass, during the late 80s to mid 90s dump the responsibility on the feds by encouraging families receiving state AFDC to make application for SSDI, aka "crazy" checks, thus shifting the entire financial burden to the feds as much as possible? They couldn't handle it then...so what's changed?)
