Public Transit a Terrorist Target

Europe double taxed gasoline decades ago and squandered the money in uber-expensive public transit, solar, wind and welfare.  They’re broke and now the terrorists they invited to invade their countries are blowing up their trains and airports.  This just happened again in Brussels, Belgium.

In the US, voters have rejected most sales tax schemes to expand low use public transit and have objected to paying for unaffordable energy.  We have also objected to inviting terrorists to invade the US, but Obama disagrees.

The US is currently designed for low density, suburban living that requires automobiles.  We are not about to spend tax dollars to create high density transit villages like Europe or electrical power schemes that cost 5 times more than coal-fired plants to produce each kilowatt of power. 

We our roads and highways maintained without pot holes.  We want our roads and highways expanded so that they function.  We want our clean water availability increased and we want the lead out of our drinking water.  We want our storm sewers operating with no floods. We want our waste sewers operating with no leaks and our waste water treatment systems well maintained.  We want pipes replaced before they break.

We would like to stop paying tax dollars to build new sports stadiums every 20 years.  We want the teams to pay for their own stadiums.

We recently killed an Atlanta Metro plan to “invest” $8 billion to double the size of MARTA to enable us to lose another $200 million a year on operations and maintenance.

We want the federal government to stop its land and water grabs and stop stealing and closing farms and ranches.  We want all “federally controlled land” to be given back to the States to return to its owners or sell it and put it back to productive use in the private economy. 

We want an end to UN Agenda 21 and a reversal of all job killing environmental extremism.  We want the US to quit the UN and deport illegals and Muslims.  We want the federal government to downsize and pay off the National Debt.
