For us it's a simple question. Europe has been leading the way on social benefits and is heading toward bankruptcy. The US has been following that lead. Should it continue, and also move toward bankruptcy? I think most Americans are smart enough to recognize we should not be following that route. However, there is a considerable segment of the US population that has no knowledge or concern concerning basic economics. They merely have their hands out, and unfortunately could continue to vote us into a state of insolvency.

I would like to bring back the poll tax, which would eliminate many ridiculous voter positions. Alternatively, I saw on the March 2 ballot for Lubbock a question of whether a photo ID should be required for voting. This is a step in the right direction.
