Next thing they'll close is the neighborhood firehouse,they'll threaten to lay off half the police department and cut the number of buses and subways that are running during the week.

They'll do all these thing to scare the public in acquiescing to higher taxes.

Personally they could do all of those damn things and I wouldn't shed a tear.

I truly only WANT a very small amount of things from Government:

1. Protect and DEFEND my Constitutional Rights.
2. Fire, Police & EMT service.
3. Road Repair in the summer, snowplowing in the winter.
4. Pick up the Trash.

I can handle everything else, thanks!
