Small Minds Run Small Government

(I know that it's been awhile since I've last posted, and I apologize to my faithful readers.  This is just a small blip of a blog today, but I hoping to add to it as soon as possible.  Afterall, Rick Scott is governor...there's so much to say.)

In his infinite wisdom, Governor Rick Scott has decided to help out taxpayers by eliminating two of the four tires on every postal vehicle.  He feels that if two tires are good enough for bicycles, it should be good enough for cars as well.  In addition to the tire cutback, he has added twenty-five additional routes for every postal worker, which was fine by them since they were simply happy to still have jobs after the reduction in workforce the Governor thought was necessary to help out the taxpayers.  Sure, it might take several months now for mail to actually arrive, but less government is better government.  Of course, make sure that any bills that you owe to big corporations get paid on time…we can’t have private businesses losing money—it’s bad for the economy in the state.  But on the bright side, Governor Scott declared that he will be sending the taxpayers a refund for all that money that they have been paying for nuisances like education, healthcare, the interstate highway system, libraries, police and fire departments, and of course, postal service.  He’s sending the checks out this week in the mail and they should be arriving sometime in 2014…
