I’m just saying.
You know how the West was won?
By the federal government, that’s how.
The federal government bought Louisiana.
The federal government sent the US Army to invade California and steal it from Mexico.
The federal government subsidized ranchers by leasing them federal lands for two cents an acre upon which to graze their cattle.
The federal government built hydroelectric dams for at that time cheap and plentiful energy, which allowed developers to build air-conditioned housing in hot places.
The federal government bailed out the airlines after 9/11.
The billionaire Koch brothers, now busily funding the Tea Party’s efforts to deconstruct the federal government, exist and thrive because of a United States created by the federal government.
Can we spell hypocrisy?
‘Cause they can’t.
