[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 1153713, member: 9789"] wkmac, I personally agree with you on post above. But I realize that we part ways on my next statement. Unfortunately, we are affected by what happens in Washington and at the state level. Realistically, it would take a revolution to change things. I am not ready to go down that road. So I feel compelled to "try" and put the representative or state leader in office who agrees most closely with my position. I live in a very liberal area, but the city council makes it work very well because of the "non-partisan" approach to our challenges. There is fiscal restraint and also money for local programs that affect our society. So I believe it can work and support this belief. I also participate in our HOA, and that is as local as you can get. I have always believed that if you don't like what is going on, either get involved or get out. I love where I live now versus where I came from. Fortunately, I could leave. That does not work for everybody. Keep fighting the good fight! [/QUOTE]
