I was 16 years old in 1980, when the Repub Platform called for an end to funding for Public Broadcasting.

I just turned 60 and nothing has been done in 44 years.

These clowns are fake "conservatives" and have no intention of ever doing anything. Even symbolic.

"Government ownership or subsidy of broadcast band radio and television stations and networks in particular, the tax funding of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting must end."

Still my favorite Republican "plank" is "Smaller government".

They get around 1/4 of their funding fr the govt.

I’ll guess that in 1980 that number was three times higher.
