<Well DAK, without any knowledge of the backround the 'why not?' doesn't explain that the way into the federal coffers involved organized cheating and theft on the part of the STATES and an abandonment of their legal duty and obligation on the local level on mass scale. The explanation also refutes your core belief that states have been/are ready willing and able to handle the problem.> <Glib, flip catch phrases for behavior don't provide adequate analysis or understandable explanations for past behavior or predict possible future behavior.> LOL, but that all is that is needed! Look, you should work for the most conservative think tanks... your above remarks are EXACTLY why the Feds should let the states fend for themselves. <. If this is the level of mediocre "cocktail party" analysis you want to engage in there are others who will take the bait. I see it as an excuse for not wanting to do any homework on an issue or think it through in any meaningful way.> But I'm not trying to convince anyone, what 'bait'? Everyone makes conclusions based on their experience, I hear you saying anyone who has "thought it through" would have your point of view... I don't think so. DAK
