[Rhodes22-list] Public Radio and TV

That is because they have no solutions, only obstruction.  The only solution
they have offered so far is more government largess and higher taxes.  Let
me take this opportunity to say we should repeal the 17 amendment and
senators who have become super-congressmen should be elected by the state
legislature as originally intended by the Constitution whereby they would
then look after state interests as originally intended (like the House of
Lords) rather than buy votes, as they now do.  That would also cut down on
unfunded mandates.
