home, opened the package
and found it empty, would-
n’t you be mad as hell?
Most would go right back
and demand our money.
How is it that our gov-
ernment takes 117 days a
year worth of wages from
the average wage earner in
taxes, yet the national debt
is equal to $120,000 for
every man, woman, and
child in this country. “This
includes federal obligation
to Social Security and
Medicare” (“Libertarian
View Point,” Vol. I, Issue
I, page 8.) That was in
2001.
Where is our health
care, schools, inner cities,
libraries, senior centers,
youth centers, etc. It all
gets discussed at the
$10,000-a-plate dinners
that speak of how to fix
poverty and hunger in this,
our oh-so-great nation. On
the box it said: health care,
decent education, senior
centers, youth centers, li-
braries, safe highways,
safe railroads, etc., and
much more.
But the money gets
given, actually taken, but
the box is empty. Why are
we not demanding to see
management and demand-
ing services paid for? Or at
least give us our money
back. Anything less is
what? Yup, straight-up
robbery.
Maybe we are insane.
Not because we have been
lied to and robbed, but be-
cause we accept these liars
and robbers and put them
in positions to do it again
and again. That’s not only
pathetic, it’s down right
embarrassing, wouldn’t
you say? Time for a
change.
The choices are bleak
at best, but I have to say
two things. A vote for
Nader is a vote for Bush. I
say vote for Kerry and then
let’s “get to work.” Let’s
begin to hold our govern-
ment an all levels account-
able for their actions or the
lack thereof.
The only things keep-
ing this democracy alive
are those who have died to
create and defend it, and
the will and resolve of “we
the people.”
In my lifetime, from
what I see going on, that
will and resolve appear to
be weakening. Bought off
by a few pieces of silver;
i.e., tax returns, or what-
ever diversions money can
buy. Are we insane?

*Commissioners need to have a financial and managerial
background. I have both the background and the backbone.
*Public Safety: family wage jobs; planned growth; improved senior/
disabled services; protecting taxpayers dollars; and adjusting the
excessive salaries, vacation, managerial/staff ratios.

complete Elk Creek Dam.
