A little voter fraud is OK?

State Senator Wirch of Somers, Wisconsin is quoted in the Journal Times November 25, 2012 as saying, "If they (Republicans) can in fact show me widespread voter fraud then I would be willing to take another look at (voter ID)."

That is an amazing statement.  Does he mean that a little voter fraud is OK?

I rarely hear of a tire slashing incident; certainly less often that reports of voter fraud.  Does that mean that tire slashing should be OK?

Feds target small plane safety

"Feds targets small plane safety" the Journal Times headline reads November 25, 2012.

This virtually guarantees that small plane casualties will increase in the future.

Obama wins

With the election of Barack Obama the United States has chosen a path well traveled by. Typically a country that has adopted nanny state policies like we have, such as social security, Medicare and Medicare … that country proceeds even deeper into socialism. No people of any country has ever turned it around at this point.

I thought maybe we would with the election of Mitt Romney. I thought maybe we would be the first in the history of the world to accomplish such a reversal. We are, after all, Americans. We are different.

Thus far that is not the case.

The mechanics of turning this country around is relatively simple. Deregulating, balancing the budget, reducing taxes, bringing back jobs and prosperity can be done almost instantaneously. What stops us from doing it?

Dependency.

It is not the mechanics that make reform difficult. It is the weakening of the individual by becoming dependent upon the government that makes the job nearly impossible. That is the barrier to reform: dependency.
