That post was a whole lot of fantastic ways of sounding like you're talking about an issue while saying exactly nothing. As much as I hate to say it or type it, this one deserves a point by point-
what I mean is that many people in America believe that people earn what they make and don't deserve handouts (to certain degrees).
Every single person in America will have a different definition of "handout" and "certain degrees". Throwing those in as qualifiers turns that sentence into the entire political spectrum at once.
Why does the legal system use a "Deal" system in law even though it favors criminals over the innocent and often impeeds the legal system? because it is otherwise EXPENCIVE! (And there are a few other reasons for it)
I have absolutely no idea what this is supposed to mean. And again, if you're going to throw a qualifier in parenthesis, for God's sake actually define it. Don't just say "other reasons" and leave it at that.
Why are there many poorly made temporary houses that are actually expected to fall appart in another 20 years (I think a bit more)? Because otherwise it is expencive! (That and they didn't have a lot of time)
Is this supposed to be an indictment of federal housing projects? What are you expecting exactly?
Why is the boarder between America and Mexico rather flimsy and unrealistic? Because realistic solutions are too expencive and the illusion of progress is more valuable then gold. (THEORY AND OPPINION!!! don't kill me for this... I just am running out of examples of cutting corners... plus I think those stone blockers do at least stop vehicles from crossing easily)
I'd love to hear your realistic solution, expen
sive or otherwise, for perfectly controlling a 2100 mile border composed alternately of barren mountains and commercial freeways.
There is no way the government is going to cover even more costs.
Do you have a reason why? Because that sounds like exactly what you're asking for.
Anyway, regarding federal campaign funding as a leveling-cap on advertising, I can think of at least one practical reason - how do you decide who's a "real" enough candidate to give government money to? Does it cover all federal elections? What about primaries? Because in the 2008 election, the official primary season included upwards of thirty people over all parties, and a half dozen on the actual election. Do you go by who wins the party nominations? Then you're legally enshrining parties as a function of the political infrastructure (far more so anyway). Do you not require a party nomination? Then come one, come all ye nutbags and whackjobs for your free campaignin' cash to tell the world of the evils of fluoride and zionists.
