States can govern themselves , they collect their own taxes and so forth , I dont ever see any federal employees fixing the potholes on the roads where I live. The small town that I grew up in still has its own volunteer fire department and so do most of the towns in the township.
Im for less federal government interference and more for letting states govern themselves , as I see it a state should be able to know what its citizens want more than the federal government.

I dont think the state you live in can govern itself.

it's an el nino year. we already had a good winter storm last week.

been more than a decade since i saw that kind of soaking here in early october. on the other hand, it's supposed to be in the 90's tomorrow.

i'll default to my experience based prediction that any major televised event here gets sun. how many rainy rose bowls have you seen?
