Soooooo, if everything’s changing & being left up “to the states” why do we need to pay federal taxes? And federal employees located in Washington even. These idiots in Congress going along with their fearless leaders dumb ideas are going to slowly put themselves out of a job.

They keep saying send everything to the states but yet they mandate what the states have to do. That is the government mandating rules.

Yup, so now the states will have to do their own inspections. They will also start inspecting food coming in from other states. You’ll end up with more people doing inspectings than now.

I meant the actually useless federal employees like the ones in the house & senate. The ones getting free lifetime healthcare on our dime.

Everyone in your country should have access to healthcare without cost. The US is (well was) the wealthiest country on the planet, yet not everyone has access to universal healthcare. 😳😳😳😳

*sigh* Yes. A friend lives in Australia & a few yrs ago a newscaster referred 2 the US as a “third world country in a Gucci belt” & I havent forgotten that line. Free healthcare most likely will not happen here in my lifetime (Im only 46) I’d like r kids 2 at least not get shot in school anymore.😢

My husband is American. When he first got his temporary residency here, I booked him in to the doctor. Before he was leaving, he asked me how much the copay was. I asked what he was talking about. He was stunned that we pay nothing when getting healthcare.

Soooo many countries are exactly like that & it is completely do’able here too. *sigh* Maybe one day our masses will see the light.

if it's all down to the States why do you even need a presidency. They are ridiculously expensive & you could save some $$$
