Possible topic of conversation: The other day Mike Church challenged his listeners to decide if they really want a republican form of government. No Social Security, no Medicare, no Medicaid, no federal department of education or housing. You get the drift. Social programs would be left up to each state to decide whether or not they want them.

Do you want to live in a true republic or are you happy with the status quo? As for me, I’ll take the republic.

    My vote is for a constitutional republic, a society where you work or you go hungry is a productive society. This notion perpetuated by politicians that there is some sort of magic land where you can have your desires without effort, simply doesn’t exist. Oh, the experiment is ongoing, socialist are sure that it will work “this time” because the social engineers are just much more able than that last group that tried it. What a bunch of prima donnas we’re stuck with. Add to this the entitlement mentality they have engendered in order to perpetuate their fraud on the people of this nation, and the size of the group that believes they are in fact entitled to a free ride, and those that think the free ride doesn’t really hurt anybody, and there will be a great deal of opposition to any effort to truly return to the days of WORKING for a living.

    Wait, you mean…let the states decide? *gasp*

    There’s got to be -something- unpatriotic about that statement, Karen!

    Missouri has some very Libertarian things going on. The state is on the cutting edge of Sovereignty and issues which are in direct conflict with states’s rights. The biggest problem we have in MO is the ghetto cities of KC and St. Louis. Take out the ghettos and we’d be able to pay our own way, we could jettison the federal government all together. What a nice thought.
