I don’t believe we will be able to vote our way out of this.
************
Voting gives us the illusion of trying to do something about it but the reality is the people we elect have no real desire to fix the problem. If fact, they perpetuate and exacerbate the problems plaguing the system.
The Republicans will probably take the House in November. Within six months time it will become apparent that they are doing as little as possible to turn things around. The same old unprincipled GOP “leadership” will be running the show and reaching across the isle to give Democrats what they want.
Prepare to be disappointed — yet again.
It needs to start from the bottom up. School boards and a good sheriff should be #1 priority because the schools are creating the next generations and the sheriff is the most powerful LEO in their county as proved by sheriff Mack and the US supreme court.
Next would be any city position, then county and we need to get our state governments straightened out. All state government pols should believe fully in the 10th amendment.
Here’s the tough one. States need to get off the fedgov teat.
Fiber optic lines are being run in my area. They’ve run it to most houses out to the big junction boxes that have their own electric meter. I asked when they would be running it down the highway to town. They said they’re waiting on a fedgov grant. Meanwhile, we have decent DSL service already and don’t really need fiber optic. Most people around here don’t even have computers.
Fedgov seems bent on getting every person high speed internet access. Wonder what the plan is there?
EDU is a big problem. Everyone pays property taxes that are supposed to be for schools. Schools get a lot of fedgov money too yet parents have to buy school supplies every year. Get rid of some of the administrative positions and buy some damn pencils, paper and kleenex. Yes, we were asked to buy kleenex when our kids were in school.
Mike Flynn’s re-awaken tour is an effort to get Christians talking about and involved in their local politics and is a good effort.
Oh I am prepared. I don’t expect anything different. One of our Senators is Rubio and I haven’t seen or heard him do much of anything the last couple of years. He sends some of his staff around the state every once in a while and tell us to go meet them and let them know how he can help us...yeah right! They never get close enough to where we live that I would spend the gas for. He is the same old same old tired RINO acting like he’s done great things for our state. I will not be voting for him.
