re: Oklahoma has it right

Aren’t you unemployed?

Oklahoma as a state has major fiscal problems and infrastructure issues. They also have a crumbling education system.

Maybe youre trying to point out that they have a tight budget as they cant borrow to fund normal operations. They have to balance their budget...which is why they made the cuts in the years you are probably referring to. That's not really a reflection of "fiscal" health though.

On the basis of its solvency in five separate categories, Oklahoma ranks 5th among the US states for fiscal health. Oklahoma has between 2.06 and 2.67 times the cash needed to cover short-term obligations. Revenues only cover 96 percent of expenses, with a worsening net position of –$171 per capita. In the long run, Oklahoma has a net asset ratio of 0.31. Long-term liabilities are lower than the national average, at 11 percent of total assets, or $609 per capita. Total unfunded pension liabilities that are guaranteed to be paid are $63.16 billion, or 35 percent of state personal income. OPEB are $0.01 billion, or less than 1 percent of state personal income.

The Democrat Presidential candidate hasn’t won a county in Oklahoma since the 2000 election. Not one single county in 5 Presidential elections. What a based state.

This is an old chain mail. How do some of you fall for these things?

1. The Ten Commandments were taken down seven years ago.
LINK

2. The Illegal Immigrant stuff - much of which has been repealed since then - was passed 14 years ago. 2/3 of DEMOCRATS voted FOR it and it was signed by a DEMOCRATIC governor.
LINK

3. The DNA samples are to be collected not from any all illegals to "ship them back", it is to mandate DNA collection from all people arrested for any crimes involving violence. This also from 13 years ago. Since then the cops in Oklahoma have flat out refused to do it.

4. The "sovereign state" stuff was a resolution, a statement, not a law and has no legal basis. It has the same legal force as declaring October 1st "National Donut Day" or something like that. Since this resolution was passed (remember this is 2009 we are talking about) Oklahoma has taken no steps to act sovereign. It has no embassies abroad, no borders or passports, still takes in more money from Washington DC than it pays in, still uses things like USA Patent and Copyright laws....and still uses the USA dollar as its legal tender.

5. The gun issue continues (like abortion, the death penalty, etc.) to go on and on and on and on in the US Federal Courts.

6. The Drivers licence thing - about the English?

Ummm....no....not happening

Have a nice evening!

The American education system teaches cancerous and destructive ideas. It’s the root of our societal collapse.

A significant cause our societal collapse is our continuing to fund private schools which have as one of their major objectives to further segregation, instead of putting that money into improving our public schools.
