I love this thread. The futility and desperation of the replies illustrates completely that the federal government is an abject joke and failure. If only pelosi and Schumer would play nice with trump then WE could accomplish stuff1!?!1 Good luck trumptards.

Reducing DC to common defense and common currency is the only rational solution. There’s not a single branch of the federal government that has any credibility or deserves any respect.

I agree with your assessment of the Federal Governments abilities but aren't you a BIG supporter of the California state government?

California has created the greatest wealth producing society and culture the world has ever seen. Despite government, including the state government. The heavy hand and cost of an oppressive and ignorant federal government is far more burdensome.

“California” didn’t create shit. People there did. Individuals. It could be even greater if the fuck heads in Sacramento would stand down.

This is a peculiar take. So where did the R&D funding come from that made Silicon Valley possible?

If you think in came from the feds you’re a fucktard. If it did, hypothetically, fuck them. The federal government using money taken from citizens to fund R&D to create billionaires is some fucked up immoral thinking.

Jesus Damone. Open up a history book. All that Dept of Defense funding that flowed into Silicon Valley back in the 1960s to 80s was so that we could win the Cold War. Did you want to lose to those dirty, commie Ruskies?

Military spending. Not “R&D”. Which falls into my constitutionally authorized spending.

You said I was fucktarded to thinking the R&D funding which made SV what it is today came from the feds. The DoD (i.e., federal money) footed the bill for a large amount of that research.

DOD = Military spending. HTH. It’s not throwing money at Solendra.

It's all tax payer money. Some it has good ROI and some not so much. In the example I cite, the ROI was extraordinary.

Refer back to where I mention spending that is constitutionally authorized.

This may have been a FS boondoggle, but I am missing where this was unconstitutional.

I didn’t say it was unconstitutional.

"The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States" is a pretty ambiguous phrasing Damone.

What part of “I didn’t say it was unconstitutional” went over your head?

Not a god damned thing. I'm citing the clause from the Constitution which states what is "Constitutionally authorized spending" as you put it, and that clause is clear as fucking mud.

It’s been debated and presented before the Supreme Court multiple times. If you read the debates and conclusions came to by Monroe, Madison and Hamilton maybe it will clear it up for you.

Lol. If only Monroe, Madison and Hamilton could see our constitutionally authorized spending now in the military industrial complex they’d be shaking and about to vomit.
