Are Some Haters Of Government Sensing The Looming Regeneracy?

In reply to line 2; no, I do not live in the South. I am in the suburban Chicago area; might be noted that MLK once said that the people of Mississippi should come north to learn how to hate. No, 1965 was 52 years ago; I am now 72. What I was questioning was, if more power was again ceded to the states whether the South might make any attempts at this. Some of the voting laws seem to be a step in that direction. I would hope that, in the intervening 52 years that folks there have become enlightened enough not to allow for anything of that nature to resurface.

I think both of us should move to saner states, man. Cool    Illinois can't do a budget because of too many layers of government.  OTOH, Oklahoma is a fucking cheapskate state that can't balance it's budget because the income tax is said to be BAD, BAD, BAD. Extremism on both ends of the spectrum seems to cause ruin. [Note well, I've already picked Leadville, CO, or Truckee California because those states have some semblance of sanity.  You know, fixing budgets and legalizing RagWeed™. Big Grin

So, yeah, I agree that some states are just so stupid!!!!!
