Here's what your LBJ Great Society constitutionalism has brought us.

"In the fifties, although blacks were still struggling for equal opportunities and were on the low end of the economic ladder, the black family was for the most part strong and stable. Two parent families were the rule, not the exception. They attended church together, had strong moral values, and did not comprise a majority of the prison population. Compare that to the present state of the black community after 40 years of Liberal Socialism. Our prisons are disproportionably black, unwed mothers and single parent families are the rule, black youths without a strong male role model other than rap stars and basketball players, roam the streets and are drawn into a culture of drugs and crime."

Thank you, and your Liberal Socialst bedmates.

I don't think we should have had trillions in great society spending, I think from the poverty it caused you got a lot of the recreational drug users as a matter of fact.

I think we make people too comfortable who are on our system's services and if it were up to me they'd be living in an uncomfortable tent city with little privacy until they went out and afforded their own life. (Severely handicapped or elderly excluded of course)

I further think the unions have a monopoly in government in the government employment, docks and with teachers.
IMO they should be made to be paid no more than what is found on average in the private sector for wages or benefits. (Which would be a probably 40% cut in their salaries and pensions at least) Again, fire, police and military excluded since there is no equivalent in the private sector to do them justice.
What they have now is a taxpayer financed government lottery winner's ticket for life. That doesn't work either.
