OT: I Am An American Conservative...
OrangeSFO
This morning I was awoken by my alarm clock powered by electricity
generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the US department
of energy. I then took a shower in the clean water provided by the
municipal water utility. After that, I turned on the TV to one of the
FCC regulated channels to see what the national weather service of the
national oceanographic and atmospheric administration determined the
weather was going to be like using satellites designed, built, and
launched by the national aeronautics and space administration...
...I watched this while eating my breakfast of US department of
agriculture inspected food and taking the drugs which have been
determined as safe by the food and drug administration.
At the appropriate time as regulated by the US congress and kept
accurate by the national inst
tute of standards and technology and the US naval observatory, I get
into my national highway traffic safety administration approved
automobile and set out to work on the roads build by the local, state,
and federal departments of transportation, possibly stopping to
purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the
environmental protection agency, using legal tender issed by the
federal reserve bank. On the way out the door I deposit any mail I
have to be sent out via the US postal service and drop the kids off at
the public school.
After spending another day not being maimed or killed at work thanks
to the workplace regulations imposed by the department of labor and
the occupational safety and health administration, enjoying another
two meals which again do not kill me because of the USDA, I drive my
NHTSA car back home on the DOT roads, to my house which has not burned
down in my absence because of the state and local building codes and
fire marshal's inspection, and which has not been plundered of all
it's valuables thanks to the local police department.
I then log on to the internet which was developed by the defense
advanced research projects administration and post on Fox News Forums
about how SOCIALISM in medicine is BAD because the government can't do
anything right.

Yep, poor thing.
Easiest and quickest thing we could do to relieve your unfortunate
condition somewhat, I think, would be to sell those highways to someone
who surely wouldn't impose too-great a toll. A capitalist could surely
handle them better than any government.
We could make sure you gained maximum benefit by including the streets
around your house and work locations.

With all due respect to fellow RGP'ers;
Republicans have been indoctrinated to believe that everything that has to
do with our government is evil no matter how much they benefit from its
services. They listen unquestionably to what is preached on right-wing
radio as though it were a religion. They've voluntarily opened their minds
to be programmed by the right-wing, never once questioning whether it's to
their detriment.

State government is certainly evil. I can't get to Tulsa, OKC, or Wichita
without paying a toll. None of them are very far from the backwoods town
I live in.

The whole state is backwoods when it comes to understanding that services
cost money, and they don't want to pay. The toll roads wouldn't exist
without the toll being part of the construction plan.
And i have travelled one of those roads a few times, going from Tahlequa
(sp) to Tulsa.

Horseshit in the garage. That's something you don't see much of any more. I
never minded horseshit. It dried fast, turned to dust fast (after the
chickens picked through it) and really didn't smell all that bad. But step
in cow shit; wow, that will ruin your socks.
The big cities were growing concerned about all the horseshit (just like we're
worrying about climate change). Then, along came the car. No more horseshit
problem.

In Spain, the toll roads are returned to the state when they're paid off. In
our country, it's just another profit on top of profit.

I understand the private toll roads, but I've never been able to understand
how they can force a toll on us on I-35 driving north to Wichita. Someone
told me it was grandfathered in or some such, but it never made sense to me
how a portion of an interstate highway can be a toll road.

Massachusetts has a toll road that was supposed to be non-toll when it was
paid for like 3 decades ago. They recently added new tolls

Doesn't make any sense to me. At least the rates are lower than the OK
toll road rates.
And why do they call them Turnpikes? The first time I got on the hiway
from OKC to Tulsa I didn't know it was a toll road until I tried to get
off for gas and didn't have exact change for the toll booth. So I had to
run through without paying the toll and risk a zillion dollar fine.

I don't know why they call them turnpikes. I've just had a pikepass for so
long I just drive through them.
About six months ago I had to drive my sister's car for some reason and she
didn't have a pikepass. I just zipped through all the toll portions of the
road on the Kilpatrick Turnpike from OKC to Tulsa by driving through the
pikepass lane like I usually do. Nothing ever happened.

The alarm clock itself was manufactured by General Electric and sold to me
by Wal-Mart and the bed I was sleeping in and the sheets that covered me and
my pajamas and the ... ... and and and ... and the money that I used to

But from the street to my fact, everything the water travelled through was
bought by me from those same wages I receive from my labor. The list of

Our local weather is determined by our local folks ... they do indeed like
much of the information provided by others. Hughes actually designed, built
and provided all engineering for the satellite my local guy was using.

You may indeed have a GM car, but it might not be last as you may not be
driving one that will be approved for long. I like the mail but I have
problems with the school system as currently sinking.

You work for the government? Have you ever wondered why government workers
pay income tax? Think about it ... you make 80 grand as a government person
... you pay maybe 20 grand in taxes ... why? That 20 grand is just given to
you so you can pay it back in taxes. You contribute not a penny to any
other government worker, why go through the charade of paying and just
collecting it again. Think of all the money the federal government could
save in "processing" if they could just say that federal workers pay no
federal tax. They could just pay you 60 grand and save a bunch of money.
Pretty soon, if everyone could just get a federal job, then ... ... oops,
what would happen?

I was right there on ARPA net when it first started. I was program manager
of millions of dollars in federal money and much of it came from ARPA. It
is a great group of folks. How you get from proper government functions to
non-proper government functions might be because of your poor education.
Perhaps if you studied economics a little more and shot off your mouth (your
mouse) a little less, you might actually accomplish something.

governmemt is evil.
Conservatives believe that government should provide only that which the
private sector can't provide for itself.
Orangie, within the range of his retardation, merely lists that which
the private sector can't provide for itself, and therefore, centralized
codes of public safety is provided by the government.
The FAA enforces national safety regulations, they don't own and operate
the airlines; they don't set the prices for tickets. We can't have
different rules for each airport and in each of 50 states. Their needs
to be national standards.
The airlines are privately owned.
The FCC, doesn't own the radio and TV stations.
Radio and TV stations are privately owned.
The FDA ensures safe food and medicine, which needs to be standardized
throughout the country to be effective. The FDA doesn't grow, harvest or
sell food products or manufacture medicine.
Farms and Pharmaceutical companies are privately owned.
These are the useful things that government can do to assist fee
enterprise and a free, productive citizenry.
In large part, this group is getting remarkably dumber. I think there's
retard groups out there laughing at you. But they wouldn't do it on the

I lived in the northwest suburbs of Chicago and for a few years took the NW
tollway and the TriState in to work. When I first moved to Chicago I
remember being told that the tollways were for a limited time and when that
time was up, they would remove the toll booths.

I used to live in Chicago and they did call them toll roads. I knew what
a toll road was.
But Turnpike? I don't see the connection between Turnpike and tolls? I'm
supposed to know there's going to be a toll? There's no signs or notice
before you enter the hiway that a toll will be required. None at all.
Just the word Turnpike.

Who decides? As bad as it can be, public education still outperforms

Another place which has had immense economic impact is scientific

no do so since 1980.
