Keith, Thought this was a newsgroup about subjects that affect
boaters. I think this is a serious issue that as the original post
states has a major impact on boaters. Or did I miss something. Chuck

Hmmmm.... could this be the new Harry Krause from wrecked.botes???? Let's
leave it there and try not to screw up this group as well.

I want to pay enough taxes to fund education, health, safety and
environmental standards. I want my government to resist the urge to
tell me how I can live, what I can do that doesnt' harm others, and to

bribe their pals with patronage appointments and cushy contracts. I don't
mind paying higher taxes if I can see the results in health
care, education and air that's clean(er) and cities that aren't
crumbling. That is not the case, lately.

Obviously, I'm a hopeless idealist, which is why I'm better off
cruising, I guess.


There is place like that. Just cruise to American Samoa. You'll see the
results.
