We are forced to rely on cheap labor to sustain the quagmire we're in....

Politicians have cleverly created positions that separate themselves from the tax payer. I prefer to call them bureaucrats. Their job is to be the bad guy and insulate the politicians from mad tax payers.

The last position to die was the Postmaster. Used to be that the House of Representatives had direct control over the US Post Office and the elected Representative was responsible for fixing any problems within his district. Nixon sold it out to the Unions.

Imagine how life would be if Pat Robertson was also our IRS auditor or Kathleen Sebelious (I don't care to know how to spell it) was our .......... well, what can she do?

Now we suffer from finger pointing whenever we need an answer. Politicians spend money, bureaucrats collect it and parcel it out.

Our city has extended it arm and artery out to take feed off of our cattle processing industry and removing cheap labor will only provide incentive for those industries to relocate.

Nebraska's in their sights...... it's only a matter of time.
