 Submitted by Liberty ... Our nation has gone through it's up's and downs. Periods of rapid innovation and period of war and periods of stagnation and ( i never thought I would ever say this) like now under the new way of governance , a period of defeatism. I have always thought of our nations economy like a household of smart children. Some thinkers, and some doers and workers. And yes even some Thinker-doer -workers. All with a Mom and Dad who had to budget their needs. Their are times when a couple of the children had some great inventions they would come up with and took them to market. The family would flourish and the other children would have work because of it. Mom and Dad would serve steaks & Eggs for breakfast and everyone got a new bicycle. Dads budget had lots coming in and lots going out. There were also times when those new inventions got old and people didn't want them anymore. The money stopped coming in and Dad had to adjust the budget. Everyone eats toast for breakfast and the bicycles were sold for money for clothing and shoes. And because Dad knew if he didn't keep things real lean his family wouldn't have the incentives to think big again the family would sit around at night remembering the steak they used to eat and the nice rides they had and try to think of some new invention that would be needed by everyone, something that would take-off and be a big success because Dads slow-time budget didn't even have room for toilet paper. Bang, brother Al cam up with an idea and off to market they ran with sister Becky running behind asking " whats a telephone ? ". Dads Good-time budget replaced the slow-time and guess what, the new bikes have banana seats and stingray handle bars. This nation since it's beginnings have gone through many ups and downs. Just thing at what happened when the car was invented or the phone or plane or " whats a PC? ". This nation was had rapid increases of revenue that expanded rapidly. The problem was when we stopped having more than just the Good-time budget. In a nation that will spurt up and then spurt down we will always have irregular and cyclical revenue streams. The ability of everyone to adjust the spending to adapt is what defines our economic cycles. All things are judged by our GDP and when that move everything has to move with it. The private sector under the free enterprise / market system will always self adjust just like Dad did. In fact this happened in the 1946 when everyone was riding the " government must keep giving the surfs fake money or all will fall" bandwagon. It wasn't that depression that hurt us but it was that depression that saved us. It proved that a welfare state wasn't necessary and the free enterprise system was all that was needed. Unfortunately the new deal wasn't dismantled and we have had to work around it ever since. When left alone It will always provide the incentives and adjustments to bounce us out of all the downs ( depressions) we have and will always knock us of all the tops when we get to high. Eisenhower was known for just managing the economic status quo and primarily leaving well enough alone. The free enterprise / market system left alone took care of the rest. We have had what seems to be depressions off and on all through out our history. They are a standard part of how it works. The only thing that has ever made them great was when the government got involved and the system wasn't aloud to be free and use it's built-in incentives and adjust. Just how Dad's did. Because of politics and the acceptance of popular politics we now have just the good-times budget and in the slow times they just borrow money. I think it began with the rapid influx of European emigrants at the end of the late 1800's brought more to this nation than just are hard working ancestors who were just looking for opportunities and freedom. Along with the good came some negatives that would eventually mesh it's way into society. Our European ancestors brought with them their ideologies they were raised with. Their political and economic ideologies wasn't checked at Ellis island. In Europe they we under communism, socialism, fascism and after all since Europe was built-up of mostly monarchies the ideology many don't even consider or even heard of may have been the most damaging of all because it's the one that is a pre-requisite to the acceptance of a tyrannical form of government and that's " serfism ". The acceptance of a royal family being of a higher class or more special than ones self. We now have our politicians elevated to kings and their popularity is more important than their skills. They no longer do what is right but just what is popular. They would never have a slow-time budget and sell the children's bikes. That's what has brought us to this moment. No longer do we have responsible citizens who will manage their government but we seem to have plenty of surfs who want the government to manage them. They are even ok with them having crowns and doing whatever they want. Hey here is a interesting look at the 1946 DEPRESSION. CLICK HERE.

 What I'm about to write doesn't necessarily apply to any particular case or any particular attorneys. This is to shed light and awareness on what our policemen are challenged with each day. All across the nation police are involved in cases that involve the creative circumvention of obstacles in order to protect the innocent while removing drugs and those who push them on our children off the street. All in the spirit of noble reasoning. If anyone thinks that the law is just, then they are naive. The system is so corrupt today, even the Attorney General who is the nations top law enforcement officer refuses to execute the law and will even sue your local government if they dare to up-hold some laws. (SEE BY CLICKING HERE) Just recently our federal government made the statement that they refuse to enforce the law. Even Justice Department attorneys are confronted with being told not to prosecute certain races of people on certain laws by their own President. ( SEE BY CLICKING HERE ). To top it all off, the reason for not doing it is founded in racism which is breaking a federal and civil rights law in itself. I don't respect the legal system like I used to, not because I'm not a good citizen, but because it's not respectable if it's not equally applied. Constitutionally, we all guaranteed equal protection under the law. But, that law is now only being applied to selected individuals, groups and based on race and income levels. For those who watch network TV and are American Idol fans, you probably have no clue to what's been going on (though your pride will say you do) and will most likely jump to attack me. That won't stop me from speaking the truth. I can say most officers do exactly as trained and that goes along with the short cuts. The best and most loyal can take simple shortcuts on paper work as part of the job and don't think they are doing wrong. It’s ashame that when the supeiors who train them and fellow officers use "Plausible deniability" when a good cop is challenged. Technicalities in checking off redundant information boxes on forms or any other routine standard short cut that has no bearing on a suspects guilt can be common day to most officers of the law. Just like the many forms we have in our personal world that at the bottom say "under penalty of perjury”. This would be considered a technicality in most cases but if the druggie’s attorney sees a chance at getting you off the street you are in big trouble. If you are a cop who goes after the drug lawyers customers (clients) and their main source of income, you know exactly what I mean. You too are in danger. They will set you up if they know of any irregularity. To most cops they don't consider some routine non-case affecting short cut as irregular. Once the lowlife druggie lawyers catch wind of this, anything can happen. One of their clients ( customers) just may set you up by using some fake drugs in a set-up drug bust. There are many lowlife lawyers out there who keep their customer drug dealers on the street. These are the same drug dealers who make addicts out of our children on the street for profit. They are paid with the profits of drug deals. Yes, the scum drug attorneys profit from the money your young daughter reluctantly paid to their client and who knows what else she had to give up for the crack and meth that this perpetuated scheme nets. Just ask any cop who knows what this is all about. Don't take my word. Some druggie Lawyers in this country make millions from keeping their customers on the street and many would consider them part of the drug business. Of course the drug lawyer will say they are just doing their job and everyone is entitled to a fair defense. Most citizens will stand-up like proud Americans and say we must respect the law and attorneys are there to help those get a fair shake. Well folks, I know this may not be popular, but welcome to the real world. In reality, all across this nation many in the legal industry who knowingly profit from their customers crimes have in fact created and joined the same drug syndicate that has targeted our nation’s youth. And all of this is under the banner of helping those in need and upholding their constitutional rights. Since those rights are dished out and the enforcement of the laws that protect us is selectively enforced, all that crap has been thrown out the door. If those who we hire to enforce the law don't respect it enough to actually uphold it by enforcing it, then it's all chaos and fear starts to set in. This is happening all across this nation. Attorneys go to school to learn how to deceive others into siding with their client .The one thing in the law and code of ethics that prevents the complete merger between the legal profession and the criminal profession is the rule that an attorney cannot actively put on a defense for his client he knows is guilty because that would be suborning perjury. They cannot expose their client’s guilt but they also can't put on a defense and should ask the judge to be excused by the court. The problem is this isn't the norm anymore. In affect the attorney is thus part of the crime and that is where we are at. This explains why this nation’s crime rate is so high and the same legal profession that dominates our government has made it just as corrupt. There are good noble police and drug officers on our streets today that find ways to work around this organized crime that's embedded in our system of justice. They do their best to keep the scum from attacking our children, even though it puts them at risk of being set-up and targeted by these crime syndicates and the drug attorneys who run them. Not all attorneys are involved in these crime partnerships, but many are. Don't be caught blindsided by some school yard patriotic mumbo-jumbo crap. If you’re a cop, watch your backside and don't expect your superiors to “stand by their men". In most cases like this you'll see enough Sergeant Schultz's around to make you think you're at a Hogan’s Hero's convention. As the socialist criminally corrupt our system like they have Mexico's and the system becomes more for the criminals while it turns against good cops, we will see a wave of crime throughout our government. It will be easy to spot because the criminals will be appointed to high positions in government and even elected to High Offices. You will most certainly know when the drug cartels control politicians because that's when the corrupt politicians will try to legalize drugs and use the law to protect the criminal activity instead of our citizens. Who will you stand up for? .

Written by our Guest Blogger - Liberty Let's begin with some simple truths. When state constitutions require balanced budgets ( no borrowed money) their state live within their means. This should be the same for all forms of government. Even township government. Period. When government and people are forced to live within their means they get use to achieving all that's necessary by other means and get used to the new method of doing it. The number one most detrimental and un-necessary act anyone can commit is to borrow money for any reason. That go's for homes, cars, government and yes churches too. In fact our Lord tells us not to owe anyone, and if we borrow we are the slave to the lender, and of course the reason for 99 % of all borrowing stems from the sin of covetousness.
Our Lord tells us through John in his first letter : " Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever. " He also tells us in Proverbs " Do not be one who strikes hands in pledge or who puts up security for debts ". Our Lord also tells us in His Word ( James ) " Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct he should show his works done in the gentleness that wisdom brings. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfishness in your hearts, do not boast and tell lies against the truth. Such wisdom does not come from above but is earthly, natural, demonic. For where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, accommodating, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and not hypocritical. And the fruit that consists of righteousness is planted in peace among those who make peace. Where do the conflicts and where do the quarrels among you come from? Is it not from this, from your passions that battle inside you? You desire and you do not have; you murder and envy and you cannot obtain; you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask; you ask and do not receive because you ask wrongly, so you can spend it on your passions.. Adulterers, do you not know that friendship with the world means hostility toward God? So whoever decides to be the world’s friend makes himself God’s enemy." When we borrow from the world we become yoked by it's contract and we then are a slave to our worldly lender. Many deceived church leaders have sold whole congregations into this slavery without even realizing who's work they were really accomplishing. They may first pray and ask for money to build a new building so they can satisfy the wish list of all the extra things they could do for Christ, but when they do not receive they fall into the sin of covetousness and becomes the world’s friend by borrowing money form it's banks thus enslaving their congregation just to satisfy their own congregational passions. All of which were accomplished in the New Testament Church by believers who met in each others homes and would never have borrowed from the world, even a penny. God wouldn't want us to do anything that requires us to befriend the world for their money. In fact, His Will has no earthly expense to carry out. One of His command would never require another command to be broken in order to fulfill it. So, however one has come to believe about this matter he must reconsider his position in light of Christ commands. If you still are having problems or may be listening to a preacher who has to justify his home mortgage, car payments or Millions of dollar in mortgages on a comfortable pleasurable church building to meet in, then consider how Jesus commands us to be. Jesus commands us in Matthew : "Do not accumulate for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But accumulate for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." and " No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money." or " Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t there more to life than food and more to the body than clothing? Look at the birds in the sky: They do not sow, or reap, or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you more valuable. Why do you worry about clothing? than they are? And which of you by worrying can add even one hour to his life? " And if you're having problems with what Jesus commands then consider this when he said : " If you love me you'll keep my commands " and through John " We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. The man who says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys his word, God’s love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. " You don't have to go against Gods Will by borrow money. Will you start making mortgage payments at the age of 20 ? NO, but you can completely own your home at the age of 30. This same principle applies to all wanted and needed things in life. The Lord will provide what is necessary but for those who have a problem with covetousness He has other plans for and it's that "covetousness" that make us and our souls a buy-able commodity for the world and it's governments to purchase. That brings us to the core of this economic crash of today we're now experiencing was a simple and fundamental error in judgment or maybe just an intentional " do it now and let others worry about that down the road" judgment. If you still don't get it because you just can't seem to understand it then read on. The rest are the truthful facts and the guts of the matter. They hold the key to the cause and the answer to a solution. 1992, New President with new goals. President Clinton's top initiative was socialized healthcare that would cost trillions just like the one passed this year. In order to pay for massive new spending and make socialized health care ( hillarycare) look affordable along with other typical liberal social programs , a new Clinton administration needed to quickly increase the incoming revenue. The solution ? The largest tax increase in the nations history. The problem was, how to remove that much of the citizens cash from their pockets and not bring down the economy. How to remove that much of a family's income but keep them spending...hum........and this is exactly what they did and it worked in the short run. President Clinton's idea was to expand President Carters Community Reinvestment Act, passed in 1977, requiring banks to lend in the low-income neighborhoods where they take deposits (CRA) by passing legislation to change the banking industry's way they loan money and forcing them under penalty of federal prosecution to give the same loans. He appointed his own budget director to head Fanny Mae to backup with taxpayer backed money any loan the banks was able to push upon any sucker they could find. Under this new forced loan scheme ( CLICK HERE ) all looked grand and the tax revenues from all this false economic boom began to flood the treasury and that gave him even more to spend to sustain the biggest ponzi scheme in the worlds history. Thus, the Clinton age of the expanded economics begins. Every college child gets a credit card, anyone who wants a new car can buy one, new house yep, that too and all that's required is a signature. The consumer debt sky rocketed and the consumer savings plummeted. For the first time in history banks are now required by law to loan money. Banks began to loan money to whoever wants it regardless of your ability to repay. New housing additions popped up by the thousands , the car industry was booming and credit cards was the choice of payment for a new America call " American Consumerism" He ordered his attorney general to rigorously enforce the new banking statutes. Janet Reno Said " No loan is exempt, no bank is immune. For those who thumb their nose at us, I promise vigorous enforcement.”. In just a year or two the banks had given 31 billion ( in early 90's value) to all who was asking. It wasn't long before the loan money was gone and Fannie Mae had to start selling groups of these bad loans to keep the flow up ( ponzi). The banks did the same and the initial 31 billion dollar in new loans turned into trillions. They also made ACORN an enforcement mechanism and the recipient of bank legalized bribes. One of Barrack Obamas jobs at ACORN was to train its activist on how to enforce the CRI ACT and threaten banks into giving either loans to those who had no real means to repay or cash money to ACORN. Now it is easier to understand the way President Obama has handled the banks. This is one area he has experience in as a lawyer and he's very good at it. Clinton appointed his budget director Frank Raines to head the government run lender Fannie May who then offered to buy-up any loan a bank could sell. This was to insure the banks would keep loaning money without worry of repayment while all backed by the taxpayers dollar. After all if the government was forcing the risk on the banks they had to at least back them up or they would have to close the doors. In 2001 the new Bush administration saw were Fannie Mae was heading and pleaded for reforms but with Clinton's man in charge of Fannie Mae and the democrats in congress who blocked legislation refused to reform the system while accusing the Bush people of racism for trying it all seemed doomed to continue. By the second half of 2008 the pass the buck game came to an end when there was no one left to accept the passed buck. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE CHRONOLOGY of EVENTS and CLICK HERE FOR THE HEARINGS Clinton's scheme to replace the missing cash he took from the Americans pockets with credit cards came crashing down. The politicians quickly blames others even one of the victims who we may call the banks and the insurance companies who insured the packaged loans the banks were made to give. Of coarse this was for show because the politicians really responsible for our crash quickly gave those they threw under the bus ( banks and insures ) hundreds of billions to shut up and be happy. opps I guess they bought them Humm..so.... well, since the people of the nation didn't own anything due to their decision to trade ownership in exchange for the Clinton's addiction of consumerism, leasing and credit spending, the nations people didn't have a dime to their name to rebuild. The politicians and the cronies banks now own all the assets of our nation. Wow..What happened ? This was the slickest theft of a nation in the history of the world and most didn't even see it coming and many are so confused the don't even know they lost anything. People are wondering around in borrowed car and living in borrowed houses belonging to their masters while having the DT's over not being able to borrow. And those who are not will be their target. This Scheme was perpetuated by convincing America we needed to implement an affirmative action program for the untrustworthy. The irony of this in retrospect is the acceptance of the same Affirmative Action program that brought us to our knees has so conveniently placed us in position to service our new President that Affirmative Action brought us as well. Remember President Obama got his start enforcing the Clinton program on the banks. He trained ACORN how to picket the homes of bank executives to extort risky loans from the neighborhood banks.( CLICK HERE ) Making Obama part of the events that lead to the economic crash to begin with. And trust me folks he will not allow us to ever have enough money in our pockets or enough owner ship of our nation again to live like the free men we were. The believe the socialist have won. I'm not putting our President down but just stating the recorded facts so all can understand the truth of the matter. God will take care of our President. In the next 10 years the taxes in this nation will more than double and maybe triple for some. The question is will a once free people be consumed by a consuming nation or revolt ? Consumerism - Covetousness are the same thing and folks have been revolting against God since creation with the sin of Covetousness. Americans just changed the name to Consumerism. This is what I've come up with in my analysis of the matter. It's all history and yes some with video. Of coarse this blog post couldn't hold every detail but this is a nut shell of the matter. And early report from 1994 fore warned of and sets up it's final chapter. CLICK HERE FOR " The Community Reinvestment Act " Take the time to read it. Now that we understand the truth about how we got here I think it's about time we start understanding why we got here and dealing with the sin of covetousness that we so easily live with. The above is offered so you'll know the truth of the matter and understand the practical results on disobeying God's commands against covetousness. All of the above economic stuff will only apply to those who put their trust in the world and chose to live in it's kingdom. If we put our trust in the Lord Jesus and chose to live on the vine in His Kingdom and follow His commands we won't be worried with it , nor will we be worried about where we will end up. If we don't live on the vine in His Kingdom and follow His commands, we may not be going to where we thought we had reservations. Please keep President Obama in your prayers that God will give him the wisdom and heart to do His will and not his own.

There is something to keep in mind when considering Mitch Daniels's accelerated I69's expansion through southern Indiana. Everyone who lives in this part of the state will not agree on it. Most that live here love the peaceful small town atmosphere and will consider it a threat to our way of life. Many will welcome the economic benefits and overlook the downsides of the issue but there is one thing that all will agree on and that is we will have to disagree.
Some of the economic benefits may be seen down the road in attracting manufacturing and distribution facilities. Large manufacturing plants i.e. Honda, Toyota building models require close access to major interstate routes for efficiencies in operations and secure transportation of their products and I69 will attract them. Some would say the modern site model is to build approximately 10-15 miles or so on either side of an interstate, sometimes if the leg is a 4 lane Highway of state importance ( like 41 to Princeton, In) they may go ~ 20 mile. This is to insure the proper up-keep and snow removal and not to shutting the plant production lines down due to access problems. Interstates are the first to keep clear of snow and kept maintained by the state. They also are thought of as a conveyor belt for parts that are made by Japanese transplant parts suppliers located statistically along these routes. So that's a ~ 20 - 30 mile path of development area potential winding through southern Indiana. My guess, if there is any manufacturing left in America after the Obama administration, southern Indiana workers would be very attractive to the Japaneses transplants and like industries who's prime employment target is the non-unionized ( not self intitaled ), dawn to dusk, farming work ehtthic type that this area provides. The transplants ( Japaneses supporting parts manufactures transplanted here from Japan to support larger assembly plants ) are usually placed on major corridors linking to the Major Japaneses plants just like the Toyota truck plant in Princeton Indiana that this I69 will go right past is linked to Georgetown, Ky car plant. There will be a loop corridor that includes I69 to I64 to I75 and I74 will legs off of that. Again ~ 10 miles. i.e. Toyota, Princeston, IN north of I64. Southern Indiana will be prime for this type of progress ( i hate using that word ) and if our people do their job and not get greedy with taxes we should see our share. Just having an Interstate doesn't guarantee the Japaneses will come. Tax abasements and other large incentives are crucial to attract these loyal community partners. I use the Japaneses because unlike other Car manufactures like GM and Chrysler who have gone to China for the parts and cars the vast majority of the Honda and Toyota cars are made here by American workers. Honda and Toyota are quickly becoming the only true American made car company we have outside of maybe Ford who too is importing more and more. As soon as Obama confiscated GM and Chrysler he gave the stock to the big union crime bosses who took the billions in campaign payoffs and then moved big chunks of those companies to China as a bribe for China to buy our treasury bills to finance the planned socialist purchase of America. ( For those of you who didn't understand why that happened.) Humm.. funny how that works. ( sorry but we must keep light on the truth ). Aren't we glad that God is in control and has this handled. ? I Am.
Other manufactures will find the quality of southern Indiana people and ease of access attractive also but I will say this, be careful of what we ask for. With jobs come traffic and trucks and truck stops and porn stores and crime and drug trafficking and dirty motels and soon what was once small clean, quiet and beautiful communities are not so clean, quiet, beautiful or peaceful. That's what brought many young family's to Morgan county decades ago seeking a better place to raise their children. What started out as the NAFTA highway ( Clinton Signed ) to connect Detroit with Mexico, who was making cars and parts for the Big three just a few years ago, has seen many changes in the landscape since it's first conception. One is that the auto plants in Mexico have moved to China leaving Mexico's next two biggest exports besides oil, Drugs and Crime a newly paved freeway with all it's towns and markets to infiltrate and network. If the need for this interstate had to be established fresh as today the conversations would sound much different. I69 will bring to the beautiful southern Indiana landscape all the things I mentioned above and more. It will never be the same. I know some who live there who would rather stay poor.
As we find so often, things that benefit can also degrade. Economic growth without interstates would be better. When looking at the big picture .....$$$$$...." Most will have the Most of what they love the Most " or " Most will have a lot of what they love the Most " Some have blamed this and so many other things recently on Governor Mitch Daniels but as much as I would agree with them on some things, on accelerating the inevitable I will try to look for the best out come of things I can't stop. I didn't vote for Mitch Daniels in the primary's. He acted a little impatient while taking a picture with my Grandson at a fund raising dinner held by Johnathan Bird Downtown that he was visitor at. Yes my camera didn't warm up quick enough for him but that look on his face prevented me from warming up to him also. I also have to be real when searching the truth of the matter.
The nation has placed Indiana's fiscal constraints and surpluses at the top of the hill. Indiana has been the state to learn from as many states who have suffered budget crisis has set their focus on us. Reserve budgeting is something that only businesses using solid budget and management methods understand but not so much a part of governments where politicians want to spend every dime they can get their hands on just to buy votes. Yes, cutting budgets make everyone up-set about something. Rightfully so but also in most cases rightfully necessary.
I too have several issues with the Governor and his process that I'm not happy with but I have lived long enough to accept that in tough fiscal times anyone who does a good job won't be liked by anyone. At least not much.
Here is a simple exercise for all you 35-45 year olds out there with children and may have just lost your job and your household income has just dropped in half. Try taking away their cell phone or soda pop or car or Internet connection or games or eating out or cable or satellite or ...I could go on but my guess, you could just stop buying ketchup and you would be the most hated person on the planet even though you are their father ...or ...maybe a husband.
*************WARNING**************
This exercise if practiced at home can result in bodily harm and sometimes in rare instances, death. If it remains Hard for more than 4 months please consult your marriage and family consoler
******************************
I know some of what is going on is budget responsibility shifting and as with the school's and other welfare programs, even personal responsibility shifting. That will not happen without hate, screaming, kicking, name calling and at the least, complaining .
I'm in this also and as most will testify I do more than my share of complaining along with everyone else but I do know this truth. In this world of accumulation and covetousness, when I have found myself watching Fox News more than reading Gods Word and spending more time and money supporting real estate ( church buildings ) than the needy or missionary's and also having 95% more than needed to actually survive I can conclude it all this way. Though, hard as it may seem to understand, losing stuff is never bad for those who's chasing the right thing. It's can only change ones focus.
I don't want this interstate trashing through beautiful southern Indiana. It will change it's landscape and it's people and some of my friends. But, biting my tongue I'll say this , aew elawaw drol awa......wait, I can't bite my tongue and do this at the same time so I'll just say this, if there is no way of stopping it, speeding up the inevitable to provide disparately needed jobs NOW for Hoosiers that Washington's ( Omama ) method will never be able to do, is better than waiting to provide some jobs 5 years from now and ending up with the same slab of concrete. Just my opinion. I have this feeling that God doesn't want me to go out as road kill so as usual I refuse to take a middle of the road stance on this or anything else. I don't want it nor do I think in the larger scheme of things will it be best for southern Indiana. Unfortunately I can't afford to buy enough property to be the sole decider. OK, now that I've gone through my Lawry's seasoned salt rub down, set the lions loose.
