    They make the government smaller because government seams to always screw things up. And government buts it's nose into business which is none of governments concern.

    The rest of the question has zero merit, and answering it would be doing the same thing you did. Perhaps you could find a question about your commandants abysmal record. LOL

    Because we either keep our freedom to earn or we hand control of it to the government. You have to remember that you know you and you know your loved ones, but the government sees you and your loved ones as numbers. And as long as the number is manageable according to some other number the government worker won't get fired for missing, that number cruncher will sacrafice you and your family in a single Blink. Remember he is seeing a number not a live person.

    In free enterprise we have some choice and if business gets abusive we can form a union. But if we give all of our rights to the government we have absolutely no one to turn to in the end. It is called tyrany

    For one, the govt. without God is an utter failure at meeting the needs of the people, and smaller govt. is better for us. FYI, we are at over 16 trillion with the deficit under Obama, and it will only get worse with the Democrats leading the way. God help us turn this nation back to Him, and Romans 10:8-10 is how anyone can be born again, and have eternal life.

    Could be because they are usually trying to clean up after some fool of a Democrat president.. at least that will surely be the case with Obama. Never have I seen anyone so inept and unable to handle the job he was given.. I think he thought it was all just him making boring speeches, and golfing and travel.So sick to death of this fake!

I say the defense force and the take care of all of our veterans must be the basically ideal ingredient to be decrease. all of us owe them a dept of not purely gratitude yet each of the help we may be able to provide them. instead some are snubbed by utilising the inhabitants at tremendous and that is going for the authorities besides. by utilising the way she continues to be having to wrestle for each little thing. Why? She changed into in a war zone at the same time as she changed into injured. regardless of if she wasn't shot or wounded she changed into nevertheless damage in a war zone were she doesn't were if she hadn't were referred to as to finish that.She responded her call and now our defense force and political activities have hung up the phone for the reason that she changed into injured.
