+Quote: You sound like a liberal!

You sound like a "superior" ignoranimus. You for banning smoking too? You're the liberal mindset ruining many of the freedoms in this Republic. Why not "ban" everything that causes you discomfort? What a maroon.

FMCDH(BITS)

To all: Not once did I say I was against trailers.Maybe I should have not used the word banned but "regulated in certain areas". BTW, if I was for big gov't and a liberal I would want the gov't to build everyone a 2 story brick home so your comments are not sound.

"Howlin" I actually live in Ohio near the Ohio river, not Ca. I've seen people along the river get flooded out every 7-8 years and the gov't rebuilding their homes with freebee money and throwing it around like candy. A friend of mine lives on Wheeling Island and has been flooded 3 times since I've known him. Of course he has no flood insurance but receives grant/freebee money from the gov't to help him rebuilr/cleanup every time. If the gov't was really smart they should build him a new home on higher ground and bulldoze the old one and they will be ahead money wise down the road. Another example in my area is they spent $330,000 to build a concrete wall around a $50,000 house out on a rural gravel road due to hillside slippage when they should of just gave the landowner 100k and moved him somewhere else and been way ahead.


Actually "nothing new" I am not for banning everything. I'm actually for smaller and a SENSIBLE gov't(se above). You can see that from reading my threads from other post.

That being said I'm also a realist who realizes the gov't needs to ban/regulate certain areas of our life... TO A DEGREE or situations would be out of control. Who here would want a toxic dump to be built in their neighborhood by a private company excersing their private property rights on their land..but wiping out your proerty values at the same time or hurting you physically? You need a gov't agency to say "Hey that is not allowed"

BTW for those that made me out to be a rich elitist I'm not. I'm not rich, I live in a very small one story house and my wife finally was able to get rid of her 1985 model worn out OLDS(that her mom gave her) last year for a newer car.

Stop digging, man.

We're not in the mood.

OK, good luck to you. Some of your comments came across that way, however.
