Thats why...you can not change things by electing the same officials in time and again. The roads are horrible..terrible even. the plows really did mess them up this year. no falut in thier own as they gotta clear the snow but samn where is the patch crews to just fill some of these canyons in the road?
imagine, a political party passes a bill that sends you and your entire family $500 a month each for doing nothing or being crazy... you would ignorantly vote to keep that party in office, right? generations of welfare recipients and public programs to encourage a complacent voter base results in the same "good ole boy" politics... this country will never change until we (the people) change our idea of what government should do and base it off the Constitution..

So true....I work in healthcare and the amount of money spent for free healthcare is ridiculous. There was over 1 million spent last year just in transportation for recipients to methadone clinics. Yes free insurance that will provide a round trip taxi to your medical appointment, no matter how many miles away, when there is a transit system in their area. Don't want to pay for your kid's tylenol, call the doctor and have them write a prescription, now its covered by MassHealth. Or the exceptional program of section 8, where they will pay your rent and send you a check each month to pay your utilities. This is on top of the cash and foodstamps they get each month. 90 % of patients here with MassHealth pull into the parking lot in brand new vehicles. Check out the parking lot of the local DTA (welfare) office.

This is why we pay such ridiculous amounts in taxes.

Next year the tax will be around $300.
2013 = $175
2014 = $75

And it will never go any lower than $75 for the life of the car.

not just pride, but RESPECT... respect for your neighbors and all working class people that you arent a social burden on them now, or in the future...

i would like to see Congress pass a law that says if you want to gamble, the casino must run your DL # and if youre on ANY kind of government assistance presently or in the past year, you cannot gamble...

That would be good. How about a law that if your on welfare,ssi, or any other assistance you have to take a mandatory drug test twice a year. I'm also sick of paying for people to smoke weed and do cocaine
