Sorry Bullwinkle, your sentence didn't quite make sense to me. As for hypocrisy on the right, yes, some people claim they want small government and privacy but demand the government going into bedrooms looking for birth control and and butt sex. Those people are a-holes. There is hypocrisy on the left as well. I take issue with raising taxes when there is no reason to justify it.
I dont sell cars I work in service..not a big deal I cant justify voting and raising taxes for education and roads and brdges when were wasting money on social programs..its improper managment of the money they already have.
It'd be nice to know how much money is being spend on various programs. I think that info would put to rest a lot of the turmoil that persists between right & left. Wasteful spending is definitely a no no in my opinion, the debate comes with the need for certain programs. But what if the budget for welfare was .001% of the amount spent on plowing the roads (or vice versa), that would be an interesting thing to know and would basically stop most arguments in their track on both sides. ===== Edit: Google knows all http://www.finance.state.mn.us/budget/summary/charts/080228_all_funds_piecharts.pdf
