Steve, a while back RW claimed that you have to raise taxes in order to lower spending.

I revised his claim and said that you have to raise taxes ON EVERYONE in order to lower spending.

I don't think he got the point.

"We're broke, we have to raise taxes"

(no sh!t, you blew it all on toys)


I don't watch the local news at all, so I don't know what's going on here.

But it struck a chord with me -- I know a guy who works for NLR and he and a "team" of other officers went and spent a week learning to fly a drone helicopter. More or less out flying remote control planes for a week on taxpayer dollars.

NLR needs that really badly....
