the real underlying problem with our country today is that people have this idea that government is supposed to solve all of our problems... this is not how our fathers intended for it to be..
Woah, wait a second. Where in the constitution does it say we can't explore using tax payers money? My understanding was the entire grow or die portion of manifest destiny required us to explore as a proactive means of providing for the common defense.
