As a Paranormal Group I say yes, they should. It is so hard to fund ourselves, as we don't take money for our investigations into peoples homes and work. And the equipment isn't the cheapest to buy

I would like to be surprised more often rather than see a continuum of voter ignorance (often deliberate and somewhat rational, given the inputs of effort and energy required to stay abreast of news and politics) and irrationality (often much worse than mere ignorance of events) on the part of the average citizen.

So I am looking for any average citizen's outlook because it gives me a better idea of what our politics will actually look like rather than the world I live in.

I see at least four or five other commentators saying more or less the same things as I do with some regularity. My voice is hardly necessary.

You know Sun Tzu, I really have missed your input on this site for the past few months or so.

I don't need to have any legislative powers to be assured that this topic is idiotic or to make that decision and assert it as the standard position.

It is incumbent upon people who want to have the public's treasury opened to them to make the case that provisioning them with funds will provide us with some greater benefit or protect us against some negative cost and they should make this case to the public first so as to assure that there will be legislatures with sympathetic views, selected by that public, in order to carry out the proposal.

You haven't made your case by worrying about my legislative abilities.

Ad hominem attacks will not explain why this would be at all a good use of taxpayer's time and money even to be worth debating and considering through a legislative body, much less to be implemented and funded by that body.

Oh yea? Who are you, Barack Obama? Do you have any legislative power to make a decision like that? No. That's what I thought.
