You set forth the argument that police and fire protection should not be provided by government--an argument no one has made. You then proceed to knock down that argument rather than addressing whether other programs should be run by the guvmint. I suspect that if you can't understand the previous paragraph, others can, so I'll try not to belabor the point when you come back with the inevitable reply. Really? Try google. You'll like it. Now you're simply making yourself look foolish. QED -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
