I still have visions of a vast American waste land where taxes are quite low. Militias roam what is left of the highway system, well armed as is their right by the second ammendment. Most government buildings in ruins. Churches, however are thriving between the skirmishes- most have snipers in the bell towers to defend from opposing religious believers. Anarchy rules the day, and somewhere (the White House long ago abandoned as an expense we don't want to pay for) Sarah Palin is President.

Its the Tea Party paradise. I'll be elsewhere.

You don't recall the right wing pundits blaming the Minneapolis collapse on lazy union workers and advocating cutting infrastructure funding to pro-labor blue states? I do. They went on about it for days, until something else distracted them.

Regards,
Dave
