You'll love this one! Walgreen's bought some land to build a store in town--paid over $500,000.

They asked the city to pay $8000 to remove an old gasoline tank from the property.

Bureaucrats love to give tax money so they can brag how many jobs they've brought to town. Without the tax money they have no bragging rights.

What I love is how the government employees (city managers, etc.) love to spend public money.

Man, if you and I got together, we would have a hoot at some of these meetings. I yearn to find just one more like me to go and actually hold these yeh-whos accountable. I guess I am due for a trip to Texas.

BTW, I am part of an orgnaization that seeks to synergize certain, credible, constitutional orgs to move government back within it's constitutional jurisdiction. Three such members are from Texas. As a matter of fact, we started out our org by several of us from all over the states meeting at Lake Whitney. We officially began there on July 4th 1999.

I love Texas, but there is no place like home. Especially the big laugh I get when watching our elected officials trip over their own logic. Would not miss it for the world.

Stay the course Lonestar...
