Clinton liberals love voting. You do the voting, they'll make all the decisions.

David, Obviously, you believe in the socialist ideas of income redistribution and created dependency, and of course big government. How do you feel about individual rights???? Do you think they should be compromised?? How do you feel about EO13083???

The election process is skewed by heavy voter turnout by segments of the population, primarily elderly, who pay little taxes and receive heavy monetary subsidies. About 40% of the Federal Budget is transfers to the elderly. A fairer election would proportion vote according to how much tax one paid. This would make an election somewhat similar to shareholder vote. After all, people who are in the receiving end are effectively wards of the state.

David, This is only a couple of lines from Neal Boortz essay on EO 13083. I suggest you click on the web site and read the rest of it. So, That Brings Us to Executive Order No. 13083 Neal Boortz Two words. Power Grab. No, make that three words. Obscene power grab. To understand Executive Order No. 13083, you need to understand something about the man who signed it, and you need to understand the type of relationship that the writers of our Constitution intended between the States and the federal government. Bill Clinton is absolutely and completely in love with power. That means he is completely in love with government. Government is, after all, the be-all and end-all when it comes to power. Government the only entity in our society that can use force to achieve its goals. This type of power makes Clinton just tremble with excitement. boortz.com
