True, that

Words of wisdom....

“The more government takes in taxes, the less incentive people have to work. What coal miner or assembly-line worker jumps at the offer of overtime when he knows Uncle Sam is going to take sixty percent or more of his extra pay? Any system that penalizes success and accomplishment is wrong. Any system that discourages work, discourages productivity, discourages economic progress, is wrong.” – Ronald Reagan

Election Day 2012

NO MORE YEARS


so anyway, I had a rude awakening this morning at the polling place.  Usually, I get to the polls around 6:55 AM, grab my ballot, vote, and am back in the car by 7:05 AM.

Not today.

I arrived at the polling place at 6:50 AM, and took my place at the end of the line, I figured I was 200 or so back (turns out I was 183rd in line).  For a small (but tiny!) semi-rural suburb of The Peoples' Republik of AnnArbor, the turn-out was HUGE!

At one point, one of the election workers apologized for how slow the line was moving.  I replied "That's OK, I've been waiting for four years already, another hour isn't a big deal"

Go VOTE!!!!
