Re: Texas Confederate opposed to slavery?

Doyle, you have made eloquent comments and agood analysis. One thing we all need to remember, before it gets to the boiling point, is that governments have no money; before they can give one group something, they must take the resources (tax dollars) from another group to pay for it. A wiser man that I pointed out that the power to tax is the power to destroy. Small example; an IRS audit!

Another wise man said that when the populace finds out they can vote themselves benefits, look out! Or words to that effect. Stan
