it all speaks to what i posted the other day-the wasted money on duplication of tasks. all they've done with creating another agency is spend more money; i doubt in the long run it makes us 'safer'. another thing that boggled my mind after 9/11 and still does-smaller towns going after 'their' money for fighting potential terrorist attacks. yeah, cause hamburg arkansas is high on a list of targets.
it would be nice if people would stop trying to hitch their wagon to the gravy train, as tho it's 'free' money and they need to get their share. ridiculous. again, bloating of the fed, rather than states having the ability to allocate to their areas correctly. but, that's all beating a dead horse, isn't it?
