Win/win.

Even people who believe in small government believe in some government. There are certain things that even the most “freedom loving” among us believe is a fundamental function which government is supposed to do. One of those is police its borders and control who is allowed in. Another is ensuring that taxpayers dollars are not embezzled and wasted, but spent where they will provide the public good or service voters demand.
When you have flagrant flaunting of immigration laws combined with rampant fraud embezzling of taxpayer dollars, government action isn’t overreach, but necessary to prevent the loss of legitimacy. If government refuses to enforce its borders, and refuses to root out rampant, open, and obvious fraudulent spending of tax dollars, it will lose all legitimacy, and citizens will simply stop paying taxes or obeying their government entirely.
For this form of government to continue, it must serve its created function. It must enforce its immigration laws, it must enforce its borders, and it must punish corruption and fraud. To do otherwise is to utterly destroy itself.

When they stop being funded by our tax dollars, they’ll slowly wither away and die in obscurity.

re: LSU not on the list. 4 LA Univ. in FED point shaving scheme. Antonio Blakeney major role.

LSU would have to be capable of scoring points to shave them.

Is there any scholarship sport at LSU which would tolerate 2 consecutive losing seasons? How about 4?

Statistically yes.

Heck yeah.
Economically, it is extremely rare these days for families to be able to support themselves on one income.

It started with the financial crisis of 2008, but a lot of the roots of the problems go back much further than that.
It’s because their economy is stagnant, they work far too many hours on average, and their dating culture is extremely conservative and shame/honor based.

Because much of Louisiana’s roads are virtually impassable.

I don’t want government enforcing codes of morality on conduct that doesn’t violate the rights of others. I don’t want a government that can ban dancing, drinking, gambling, etc. I want a government so small that it doesn’t even regulate marriage because it has no vested interest in knowing whether people are married or not. I don’t want government to have enough power to even want to know if I am watching porn, let alone have a vested interest in regulating what I watch in my own home.
On the flip side, I am a lot more socially conservative than the progs on what sorta dei lgbtq nonsense they’re pushing in public schools this week. Which is why I want to abolish the Dept of Education and public sector unions and return those sorts of decisions to local school boards and PTA’s.

Schools need to stop caving to parents complaining. They need to hold their ground and discipline students who are disruptive, hold back students who can’t reform, and if parents rebel and take their kids out of school, LET THEM!
Schools should NEVER let a kid graduate 4th grade who cannot read/write. They should repeat as many times as it takes or be sent to alternative schools until they are fully literate.

This is 100% the fault of GWB’s “No Child Left Behind”, Obama’s “Race to the Top”, and the corrupt Teachers Unions.
re: Greenland Annexation and Statehood Act introduced today
Posted by kingbob on 1/12/26 at 7:38 pm to SallysHuman
I’m not opposed to the creation of new states, but Greenland is far too small. Perhaps they could get statehood after we annex Canada by bundling them with some other Canadian provinces/territories like Nunavut, Newfoundland, and Labrador. However, I doubt the Greenlanders would want to be ruled by Canadians.
