[BFix] FW: The new Socialism!

[Brian Cooke]

That proposal has been out for 20 yrs and won't make it either-darn it. Farming communities do not have the tax base to support the infrastructure...wish it could, because I'm really SICK of three counties in the entire State of Washington carrying any/all elections and/or ballot issues. Living in a condo compared to living on a ranch is quite different, however we must abide by the law... Hell, we can't even trap moles any more because it's freakin' illegal--once again, a "Westside initative" passed a few years back.

Thanks Snohomish, King and Pierce Counties.  Oh well, living here sure beats most other places in the world so I'm happy to be where I'm at. :)

  Sorry, it's too late for the southern Oregon/northern Calif thing.   The non conservative vote (I hate the term 'liberal') has expanded down the valley to Medford.  The new talk is eastern Oregon/eastern Washington I heard on the radio today.

    I was wondering when I would hear from you on this. 

    Do you really think that the American Revolution and the subsequent "War for Independence" is even remotely germane to this discussion? Apples and oranges.

    If you would like to do a comparison I feel that the South's secession from the union is a better corollary as it contains similar issues.

    Both examples were the result of having exhausted all other recourse to solve their grievances.

    A more current example would the "State of Jefferson Initiative" that is brought about every few years and would combine portions of Northern California and Southern Oregon to become the 51st State. I whole heartedly support that initiative up to the point of bearing arms against my government.

    The need for the members of an established democracy to take up arms to unseat the current power of an existing nation is ridiculous. The resulting civil war would do more harm than any good that would be achieved.
