No, local mayors shouldn’t be running the country

Neither should high school students nor billionaires. It is a job delegated by “We The People”

Every city represented by these political hack imbeciles are sh*tholes and mostly Democrat run. They can pretty them up as much as they want (always by Federal money) and hide the ghettos but they will always be the example of political graft, government and societal failure. These people are delusional.

Not to hijack the thread, but maybe it's time FR went to a subscription-based site.

I would gladly pay $9.99/month.

Yes, if just 3,000 people did that, we could make it work!

Or get a bunch of advertisers to pay for it. Nobody pays attention to the ads anyway.

Wait, the same mayors that put their cities a combined trillion dollars plus in unfunded pension liabilities?

The ones most likely to receive bribes, kickbacks and educated looks the other way at crime, malfeasance and corruption?

You mean those mayors?

No thank you.

let’s make a deal with sanctuary cities;

No Federal Agents enforcing Federal Law in your cities

in exchange

No Federal Bailout when you go bankrupt

Anyone ever wondered what the reaction would be if some random mayors started declaring sanctuary cities for all firearms?

I know 2nd amendment and all but just wondering if the shoe were on the other foot I can’t imagine the level of outrage.

The various municipal lobbies are hoping for an Article V convention for the purpose of changing our Bill of Rights and doing just that: running our country with even more discretion on their part. They have quite a bit of influence over our state assemblies.

“I would gladly pay $9.99/month. “


So would I——I’d even spring for $10.00 a month.

Add, that anyone that voted for said mayor and supports the sanctuary policies, isn’t allowed to move out of the city. None of us wants liberal, hipster, d-bags, with the money to move when things get bad, like a swarm of locusts and destroy the next place. Let them live with the consequences of their decisions and wallow in the misery.

Pittsburgh elected this turd mayor Peduto who is so far left that he would feel at home in Moscow. Pittsburgh is a mess more than ever. Roads don’t get plowed in the winter, taxes are high and its more inept at everything else. But at least we have bike lanes everywhere.

I did that, by setting up an autopay on my credit card. :)

These people, or people like them, have been running this country for the last 58 years. That's why the last time the national debt actually decreased was the fiscal year ending December 31, 1960. Ever since then, the national debt has increased.

Spending other people's money is not leadership. Spending money you don't have is not leadership.
