Dudes not Stossel but he's right and so is Stossel.



Last week Bryan Gonzalez, who worked as a U.S. Border Patrol agent in New Mexico from October 2007 until September 2009, sued his former supervisor for firing him because of opinions he expressed about the war on drugs. In April 2009, according to the complaint (PDF), Gonzalez remarked to a fellow agent, Shawn Montoya, during a break that "legalization of drugs would end the drug war and related violence in Mexico." He added that "the drug problems in America were due to American demand for drugs, supplied by Mexico."

Stossel...

Close Dept of Education.

Why take money from states, launder it and then give it back to states.

Close HUD.

Spent billions on housing projects that we now spend millions to blow up.

Why not?

Seriously, what things make sense to buy 50 different ways and what things make sense to buy at a nationwide level?
At what point do you just have 50 different countries?

And our state gov't doesn't?
And a whole lot of peeps wouldn't waste their own money, for that matter?
