I take exception to the comment that education is free from K-12. While there may not be tuition to government schools, they are far from free. Take a closer look at your tax bill next time.

The quote from the constitution is very accurate and true, but as I said, where do you draw the line? Some where some how someone has to have the balls to say NO MORE. When you mention the Euro countries and Cuba as examples, please be honest and accurate enough to tell us how much (as a percentage) they are paying in taxes as compared to us. Cuba, a strict Marxist, Communist state has all it can do to keep its people there..... Why are so many willing to risk their lives to get to the USA if is is so great there and sucks so bad there?

When I was on patrol on the Iron Curtain, I had more than one occasion to see qnd talk to people who risked electric fencing, dogs, armed guards, minefields and untold atrocities (If caught.... these atrocities would make waterboarding look like a weekend at Dismey) just to have a CHANCE to get to the USA. Ever wonder why that was, and still is, as witnessed by over 12 million ILLEGAL aliens not to mention countless LEGAL immigrants come here?

I guess they all want crappy health care and lower taxes........
