Some Michigan counties have turned a few once-paved rural roads back to gravel to save money.

More than 20 of the state's 83 counties have reverted deteriorating paved roads to gravel in the last few years, according to the County Road Association of Michigan. The counties are struggling with their budgets because tax revenues have declined in the lingering recession.

Montcalm County converted nearly 10 miles of primary road to gravel this spring.

The county estimates it takes about $10,000 to grind up a mile of pavement and put down gravel. It takes more than $100,000 to repave a mile of road.

It says there in your quote that it has been going on for a few years. Why blame it on Obama then?

ETA: Please ignore. I mistook your signature for a comment.

Rhetorical comment, since Demorats and Republicons are the tag team of the NWO.

Lemme correct this...

The counties are struggling with their budgets because the officials are corrupt, greedy scum.

Remember, that's coming from a guy who managed to REDUCE taxes, still pay for everything, have a budget surplus, and lock in a bid that did, eventually, get the main drag repaved for less than one TWENTIETH of what the original crooked council wanted to bill the taxpayers for it.
Oh yes, and laid in a sufficient stock of salt for bargain basement pricing, allowing the town to salt the roads that winter without having to pay extortion prices, AND had enough in reserve for starting next years stockpile.

WITH a tax reduction, mind you.

So it sure as shit ain't a lack of income - it's a lack of moral decency and basic honesty, that is the primary problem.

This is another mafia extortion racket via govt contract fraud.

It's of course cheaper to fill potholes than to plow up a paved road and turn it into gravel.

But filling potholes is only 1% as profitable to a contractor as plowing a road into gravel.

No-bid cost-plus blank-check govt contracts are the textbook definition of fascism.

The private "Federal" Reserve Bank works exactly the same way, with zero audit allowed, in total violation of the The Law.

You make it sound as though the "Fed" turned outlaw on Jan. 20, 2009.

How long has the NWO been in operation?

Just curious!

Shit, SGG, the "Fed" has been illegal since it's inception, it's just that no one seems to care - but in all seriousness you'll find no connotation or distortion of the law beyond completely ignoring it, that offers it any legitimacy whatsoever.

Of course, there's a lotta agencies like that in the Gov...

As for the NWO ?

Well, discounting european royalty, I would say May 25th 1787, quite specifically in the personages of Hamilton, Madison, Jay and Adams, the latter two who did not attend, but were completely "in the loop" for the fully intentional subversion of the intent and spirit of the Constitution when it became clear they wouldn't be setting themselves up as the new american monarchy.

If you'd like, I can trace the line all the way down to the modern Neo-Cons for you, but that'd be a waste of effort when I can point you to a couple modern bastions of the same bullshit.

Now, if you read through that and really THINK about what they're saying...
And then compare both what they do, and crossref the political connections, that ought to concern you some.

Even scarier is these guys.

These ain't some chump old-boys-club like skull n bones, they're international political powerhouses and powerbrokers, and ever since Adams tipped their hand too early (thus *seriously* pissing off Hamilton) with the Alien and Sedition Acts, their agenda has been all too clear, and hasn't changed a bit - them in charge of everything they can reach.

Most of the world will never truly realize the tremendous favor Aaron Burr did us with a single well placed shot.

One of the more absurd things in the so-called stimulus pkg. is $ 3.5 million for a small tunnel under a road for turtles and alligators in Florida. Now they have to cross the road like we humans do, but thanks to Nancy Pelosi our reptile friends will cross safely underneath. It's only $ 3.5 million after all, and it will create a few jobs for a few weeks. Part 2 of the plan calls for a racquetball court and juice bar for iguanas.

Thanks Fremmy, for the info.

In my travels I have come across some bits and pieces of an NWOish nature regarding "our founding fathers" that I found to be rather interesting.

It goes something like they felt that much more enlightened than the "huddle masses," much like the way in which "we" treated the Native Americans. You have to wonder about a govt that breaks some 200-plus treaties and the raping of an entire peoples. Revisionist history anyone?

I will double click on your links, but make no mistake I am aware of the historic feudal posture of the "gentlemen" in power.

Thanks again.

Yeah, the private "Federal" Reserve Bank has been illegal and treasonous since its inception in 1913. The jewish ADL of B'Nai B'Rith Luciferian Freemasonry was invented that same year to pass defend the "fed" and bribe/extort Hate Speech laws that allege criticism of the "Fed" is "anti-Semitic". Those bills are now in Congress, and may become unconstitutional "law" this year. Both main parties (i.e. the NWO Party) support the "Fed".

But that's changing with Dr Ron Paul's Audit The Fed Bill, with over 220 co-sponsors. Most Congresscritters didn't even know or admit the "Fed" is a private corporation, until 2009.
