IT WOULD BE really nice if obama's idea to sell off and privitize the tennessee valley authority could get some support from the republican party, and the american people. After all, its the sort of thing the republican conservatives claim they want; reduced national debt throught spending cuts, and less government.
it might be that there are many government entities that could be similarly sold off to the betterment of the american people and the american government's financial ledger, including the U.S. postal service.
how many can you name? what about combining medicare, medicaid, and obamacare into one program, and call it..whatever we want to call it...health care insurance for poor people? and let's make it work, while we're at it.
legalize marijuana and place a national moratorium on all new prison construction pending adjustments to prison population resulting from legalizing of marijuana. Everybody in prison for selling marijuana would be turned loose, allowed to sell marijuana, and elected to memebership in the local as well as national chamber of commerce is he does so successfully. Economic growth!
Imagine the tax revenue from legal marijuana sales in america, and the money saved by changing our sick depraved policy of locking up drug offenders as crinimals, rather than treating them as health care victims and violators.
Strangely, its the inexplicable conservative republicans who are against all this proposed progress. Why? because obama and the liberals want it, for one thing, and because the consrvative republicans don't really want to reduce the size of government, like they claim they do.
Its time to show your true conservatism, conservatives!
