    The major difference is that over time the Republicans have allocated more and more funds to the Executive to enable them to build up a persistent “enforcement.”

    In no way shape or form is that a “Republican” problem. Democrats have been happily handing ever more power to the Executive for decades. As I’ve said in other places this is a symptom of Congress members being more worried about re-election and campaign donations than handling the business of the nation.

    I’m beginning to wonder if the education we received was entirely on purpose.

    I graduated in '91 from a town in the MidWest with about 30,000 people. We covered “separate but equal”. I tire of people blaming the education system when in reality most people are ignorant by choice.
