The City of Atlanta recently announced that the United States Department of Transportation would provide a grant of $47.6 million to partially fund a $72 million streetcar project that will stretch from Centennial Olympic Park to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center.
Members of the Atlanta City Council, Rep. John Lewis and some local business owners are hailing it as an "innovative" project that will reduce gridlock and create jobs. But if history is any guide, those hopes will fade much like the streetcars that ran in the city until 1949. Common sense will tell you the same thing.
The idea that this project is going to reduce gridlock is laughable. This streetcar will service a relatively short stretch, a little over a mile, in an area designed to attract tourists; the Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola and the CNN Center will be among the stops. But while this streetcar is running in this small section of the city, hundreds of drivers each day will still be sitting in traffic elsewhere. As is often the case when cities waste taxpayer funds on "smart growth" strategies and transit projects, rather than focusing on projects that move people from where they are to where they want to go, this project will become a fiscal drag on a city already badly in debt.
Businesses along the line will assist with capital and operating costs, and the city will contribute $15.6 million to help kick off construction. While riding on a streetcar may have a certain nostalgic appeal to some, it is hard to do anything but question the wisdom of city leaders for committing to fund this pork project when they are staring down a severe pension crisis; Atlanta faces an unfunded liability of $1.5 billion in employee pensions and unemployment remains in double digits.
Leaders of the city may have a romantic view of the streetcar; but in reality, it is a luxury item that Atlanta cannot afford now or in the future.

Why should the city of Atlanta pay to fix the metro areas traffic problems? The worst traffic is outside 285 or through Downtown on 75/85 because suburban folks are just passing through. Maybe if the METRO AREA had it's act together (the suburban counties) we could ALL work together to solve our traffic problems. In the meantime, the city of Atlanta should do what it needs to do to make itself a better place to live, work, and visit.

The AJC and Barr continue to prove they are deserving of the Creative Loafing headline Dunwoody Constitution.
The streetcar (at this phase) is NOT meant to ease traffic. However, the fully built-out streetcar will ease traffic as a part of the whole comprehensive transit masterplan for the city and the region. The phase being funded by the TIGER II funds is meant to be a stake-in-the-ground for our larger transit plans. In order to have a fully functioning regional system, we have to start somewhere and this is a small step in the right direction.
The streetcar is not some pet project supported by "John Lewis and some local business leaders". It is part of the City's Connect Atlanta Transportation Master Plan and part of the Atlanta Regional Commissions Concept 3 plan. The rail laid by this round of funding will transport light rail vehicles from the BeltLine to the Service Station (funded by this round of funding) and carry passengers to the MultiModal station.
The streetcar will NOT be a financial boondoggle. Ask experts in Charlotte, Dallas, Portland and Houston about the ridership and funding prospects at the start of their projects. Ask them what kind of success they have seen. In EVERY case, ridership projections were crushed, income has been higher than expected and economic development (taxbase and jobs) projections have also been blown away.
The only semblance of a point the AJC has is that the City is facing extremely difficult financial decisions.
But the City cannot afford to not build the streetcar. The City is spending $10 million of its own money to get a $72 million project. Even if you skew the numbers (like the AJC) they are spending $15 million. HB277 is the only prospect for transit funding on the horizon and it will many years before we see the $. Atlanta won't see another federal grant without local matching funds and those funds are years away. This was our one chance and our only shovel ready project. We had to take it.

I can't help but feel that the companies involved in building this streetcar are being very um, "nice", to all the Atlanta board members pushing for this thing.
Are the leaders really this foolish with the tax money or are they taking kickbacks from the streetcar builders ? Who knows.

For a couple million you could buy a fleet of double decker city buses, as they cost around $300K each.
A double decker bus, like the ones they use in Vegas or New York, would be just as neat as a StreetCar without the obvious issues of startup costs, construction costs, and obviously with a bus you don't need to lay railroad track for new routes

Too many ignorant comments about Atlanta to address here, starting with Mr. Barr's, but fortunately the Obama administration understands that there's more to addressing transportation problems than highways. More than ten percent of the 5 million plus people living in metropolitan Atlanta live inside I-285. We have transportation issues, too, but the solutions don't involve additional highways here in town. Long-term solutions to our problems are not premised on making life more convenient for those who choose a lifestyle that depends on driving a car everywhere they go.

Attempted to post what I felt was a thoughtful, positive, piece about this earlier today, but because I also took Mr. Barr to task for his continued knee-jerk criticism of Atlanta, it never made the cut. Of course I also had mentioned a 'take' from jdI2 above who reminded 'Bob' why they live in Cobb County – obviously it had something to do with the fact that the streetcar would promote moving African American visitors back and forth between the MLK Historic Site and Centennial Park – and, of course, we all know why Cobb voted down MARTA back in the 60's…because jd just reminded us.
Now let's see if the so-in-so's will post this one.

The comments from the super conservative suburbanites, including Bob Barr, are typical and classic. Slam any idea that doesn't involve adding five more lanes to existing highways, and deride any transit-involved transportation solution as a waste of money, socialist, Marxist, etc. Of course, any expensive road-widening project in the suburbs that does little to reduce congestion is a good use of taxpayer money, because it's spent in places where the people that matter live.

This is another one of those "Politically Correct" things built by blacks for blacks. The money could be better used by the APS…..if the problems with the schools don't get corrected, there's not gonna be anyone in the city except blacks and, as has been shown by the money pit known as Underground Atlanta, will be a losing proposition. C'mon folks, use some sense. Thanks Bob Barr, a great American for keeping this boondoggle in the news.
November 20th, 2010
2:52 pm
Bob, I usually agree with half the stuff you put out, and most of the stuff with which I disagree is tolerable, and a good read – but your comments here can be summed into one big pile of excrement.
What's your solution, more roads? That'll help! If you are going to have streetcars and light rail transit to ultimately cut down traffic, you've got to start somewhere! (The interstate system wasn't built overnight, remember???)
One of Atlanta's main revenue sources is tourism – so why not use a tourist based system to get started with a streetcars? If the 'forward looking' post WWII politicians had not been wooed by the auto industry in the early 1950's, the 'trackless trolley" system (electric buses) would not have replaced the streetcars, and we would have rail transit stretching way beyond I285…. like it used to be.
I guess that if you had it your way, we'd just pave our way out of congestion (Apparently you've never checked with a traffic planner on that one, huh?) Got your road construction buds out there drooling at the prospect of removing more private Atlanta property from the tax rolls? Thanks!
The city (the REAL city) is working on changing itself. We're going to succeed. We don't need the outside sniping of all the sprawl freaks that really enjoy spending most of their life behind the wheel.

What else would expect???
Can anyone name one U.S. city in the past 30 years, that has been run by blacks, whose public school system is not in the toilet? That isn't bankrupt? Whose corrupt leaders are continuously sent to prison? Whose crime rate is not out of control? Who keep electing the F-ing people, because they know in the end it will be the white man that bails them out through taxes?
The answer is "NO". Just look at ATL.,D.C., N.O., Detroit, Baltimore, Philadelphia, L.A. (hispanic), etc.

6:17 pm
When I see comments like this will increase tourism and if Atlanta hadn't got the grant it would be spent somewhere else, I want to scream. A streetcar is not going to increase tourism. The attractions do. How many people out there do you think are saying to themselves, "the Aquarium, Coke Museum, and Centennial Park sound nice. Too bad they don't have a streetcar for us to get around. Let's just go to Disneyworld instead."
Keep in mind, the Federal money is OUR money also. I keep trying to figure out why we keep getting Federal money. Perhaps we should lower the Federal taxes significantly offset by an increase in state taxes where we have more of a say in what OUR money is being used for.
November 20th, 2010

The streetcar is not about reducing traffic, Mr Barr. In fact, it is about making the city of Atlanta more livable and walkable both for tourists and residents alike.
Your "common sense" argument about the previous streetcar system fails to acknowledge the many factors that led to the demise of a past system (White flight, Auto Companies buying streetcar companies to turn these into bus routes, the rise of the car-centric suburb, etc) .
The argument that projects should favor a Point A to Point B approach are typically those that lead to widening roads as a way to reduce traffic. Has this approach EVER worked for Atlanta? the connector is already one of the widest stretches of interstate in the US. And where has that gotten us? MORE traffic. Widening roads just allows for more cars. investing in public transit allows for businesses to flourish, for tourists to visit more comfortably, and for some of us who enjoy to live intown and actually get out of our cars to BE in the city in a more humane way.
You should perhaps look into your arguments more in-depth and then really think about what they mean. Perhaps you are not familiar with Atlanta? When was the last time you experienced it without the barrier of your car? Cities are for living, not for commuting. In that respect, the streetcar get it right. What it doesn't get right, is only the fact that it is not big enough to really make an impact. This is where the Beltline falls into place.
November 20th, 2010

Those of you saying that this isn't about reducing traffic congestion should read the news release by the City of Atlanta, which said that one of the reasons for this project was "reducing gridlock."
November 20th, 2010
9:02 pm
Probably one of the top 5 stupidest ideas for the City of Atlanta. The cost is over the top for something that will fail from lack of use. If you want to build a streetcar line, run it north/south from Arts Center Marta station to 5 Points Marta. At least then it will connect to rail lines and have destinations along the route.

You in town living people enjoy being harassed by the thugs and panhandlers? The streetcar will become another venue for the lowlifes can prowl upon. I think the designated money should go the APD so they can focus on getting the gangs, thugs, and drug trafficking folks apprehended and prosecuted. Then, downtown might be an area where nice restaurants, street cars, and public venues would be viable for locals as well as tourists. Until then, no thanks. I have a dream that the downtown area will again be safe so that our fine college students can once again walk the streets around campus and not be accosted, killed, or robbed by the local thugs. Also, ask any of the merchants whose stores have been impacted by the smash and grab thieves how they think this money should be spent.

Well, those street cars are going to be as cute as a button. The Japanese will put lotsa gold and lanterns and tassels on them. Tourists will bow saying "Ah so Atlanta! Chop Suey & teriyaki too." ! Terrific!!
But more is needed. There must be Japanese bumper cars in City Hall for politicians. No more back stabbing behind closed doors. Anybody taking more than their share of the loot will get the BIG bump! The mayor gets gold plates on his car (a gift from the Japanese)..
And MORE! We must have golf carts (cute Jap models) on 285, 85 and 75. They will be a great help to State Patrol and gas economy. Just think! How many cities have golf carts to guide tourists into town? There. I told you so. Not a one of those slow thinkers..
Yes, sir, Mr. Barr. You need to spend more time at the bar. Brings up great ideas. That's how we got trolley cars.

I can propose an VERY viable alternative to wasting $72 million building a mile or two of streetcar track on a bus route that's already failed… DON'T! The Feds don't have the money, the city doesn't have the money and there's no demonstrable demand for it… stop looking for ways to throw money (we don't have) down a hole. It's a crazy idea, but it just might work…

Will not relieve gridlock – that is not an issue on that corridor. Buses can do the job just as easily. The streetcar WILL NOT be using dedicated lanes so they are at the whim of infamous Atlanta drivers who stop "just to quickly run in" to a business. The frequency of the streetcars has not been determined (again, why not a bus.) If tourist wanted to really go to the King Center, they would be going – this is nothing more than a "free" (to the King Center) way of getting tourists there. Will not create jobs – if businesses wanted to be on that corridor, they would already be there. Money could of been better spent on the Beltline,
As a cyclists in the city, there are other alternative transit plans that could better use the funds. Nuff said.

Article states, "which is forecasted to have 2,600 boardings per day.' Say at $3 per fare that is $7,800 per day in fare revenue? That is just under $3 million a year. I am sure the upkeep costs for this are more than $3 million a year. Is that figure of boardings correct?

Wow. The level of ignorance in here is astounding.
You all realize Atanta is the most visited city in the Southeast right? Bringing in almost 40 million people a year. That's billions of dollars in revenue directly into the local economy.

To the JBs, the Rons and the rest of you that are 'still' complaining about, whatever name you wish to call them, the folks that ride MARTA, visit Underground and Atlantic Station, and tell them to stay outa' Cobb…how's that effort to 'beat back Evolution' going for you. Fact is I grew up in Cobb, raised my kids in Cobb, but gotta tell you when you and your mega-churses (most of 'em Babtist) decided to have all the science text books labeled as 'anti-evolution', I decided it was time to engage in a little 'natural selection' of my own, and get the hell out of Cobb the first chance I got.
By the way, 'architect' is right. People that don't get that just don't want to 'get it' and only wish to perpetuate stereotypes and prejudice.,,good luck with that out in JB Stonerville.

What is needed is a full system, not a small one. But, hey Americans are more about building bombs. There is a reason America has continued to ffall in living standard. This same thing is being played out all over. We can not even manage to build a full street car system.
This country is all about excuses.

Yeah, opportunity cost is a very basic economic concept. But then again, how many kids still in high school (or younger) play this game? How many of them actually understand what economics are?
How many of them actually care, if they play like me they just want to clear there bags and make a fast few G's then they will undercut everyone regardless. I don't really need gold in this game, as i am mostly a PvPer i rarely repair and most other things i can buy from honor, other than those few enchants each season
The worst is when people don't understand that price wars are bad for the sellers for "high level" recipes. The easiest to see are the engineering ammo since he price to create to so small, but the recipe is hard ish to get. There are about 4-5 people on my server that sell Iceblade arrows on my server and the price is just lowering and lowering....It sucks. Raiders need these arrows, they buy 5-7 stacks at a time. Huge demand!
Bah, I may just try to control the market for a few days in order to bump up the cost. Or just send a letter saying "hey bro lets be friends! It isn't illegal in WoW to collude prices"
@tim- in the case of the new arrows I'm actually a fan of the low cost because, frankly, they don't take a lot of mats and you could still make a mint selling them for cheap prices. AND as a hunter I like being able to buy pretty cheap ammo now that I don't have a friendly engineer who makes things if I provide the mats.
Your strategy doesn't work because smart traders would rather be the one who's selling 100% of the arrow purchases on their server/faction for 2g per stack than 25% of the arrow purchases for 6g per stack. Collusion simply means that you're dividing up your potential market share because you're too chicken to handle actual competition.
Without brand equity or varying product quality, premium pricing is impossible for all but a handful of items. And, obviously, competitive pricing challenges vendors who want to make as much profit as possible (who wouldn't, but for reality?) or whose cost structures are sloppy. Nobody's happy when costs that are mostly beyond our control make an item unprofitable, but when that occurs, it's time to find another market.
Braundo, you're failing to see the sky high demand for the engineering ammo. Since most ammo sells if it's not above the average market price, selling 100% of your ammo for 6g isn't that far fetched, if only the market stays stable around that price... When the price of the ammo goes down to 2g people don't want to spend more than that, even though if the price would have stayed at 6g they would have spent it without a second thought.
Sure there may be flaws in my argument, but your argument is that bulletproof either...
"Without brand equity or varying product quality, premium pricing is impossible for all but a handful of items."
There is ZERO PURPOSE to undercutting someone by more than a single copper. You are selling the exact same item. Nothing differentiates your product from anyone else's. In the real world, quality differentials can explain dramatically lower prices, but in the WOW economy, undercutting someone by 15% on teh same item is like having two Gap stores across the street from each other, one selling a shirt for $50 and the other selling the exact same brand of shirt for $32.50. It just doesn't make sense. the only distinguishing factor on the auction house is whose name comes first, and that is accomplished with one copper as well as it is with 100 gold. You're only hurting yourself.

But, where does "we will not be undersold" enter the game? Theoretical example: three people are selling Grimoire of the Frostbitten Kingdom (whatever). Buyout prices are as follows: 200G, 180G, 175G. Item is considered a niche market, appealing specifically to lv. 79 twinks. However, the prices currently listed are seen as excessive in all three situations, the auctions run out and the sellers lose their deposit, then have to relist the item yet again. Knowing that, I auction my own Grimoire of the Frostbitten Kingdom at 150G for buyout, and it finds a buyer right away due to 150G being the maximum price that potential buyers deem acceptable at that point in time. And then there's the factor of relisting high-level items being a drain on your pocket, do you slash prices to sell the bloody thing faster, or do you stick to your guns and maintain the original price? In any case, potential savings of larger sums of gold will attract people faster, which might not have been guaranteed if I'd have auctioned the item for 174G, 50S, 50C. :/
About collusion and oligopoly:
During BC, there were about five tailors on my server making netherweave bags in bulk on the AH. They netted me about 3 or 4 gold per bag and about ten a day nearly always sold in one posting. The gold paid for my repairs in PvP and over the course of a few months, my spellfire set (I kind of miss having it take weeks to get an item upgrade, but then again, I don't...). I bought the cloth off the AH instead of farming it (although I would also incidentally get a bunch of cloth because I was grinding Scryer rep), so my cash profits were easy to calculate. I would not buy cloth over a certain price because I knew that I would not profit from it (unless there were no bags posted at all and I could price a little higher that day).
Well, one day I got undercut by a single player, so I undercut him. And he undercut me. And so on. It got to where I was making a little less than 1 g per bag.
So what I did was I put him in my friends list and waited until we were both on. I whispered him with something like, "hey, we are in a price war, it's getting crazy." He immediately recognized my name and wrote back, "yeah..." I asked him if he wanted to fix prices and trade days on the AH and he went for it. It only lasted about two or three weeks or so, but we ended up keeping prices higher for a while. We agreed that if a person posted lower than us, we'd both flood the market for a day with low-profit sales, or if they were low enough, we'd buy all the bags on the AH. Overall, it was interesting because I think we probably ended up not making much more money on the higher sales, but it was certainly fun to have our little two man "cartel."
I did something similar to this during Vanilla WoW. I had an Herb/Alch and someone in my guild would routinely help me out by farming up herbs and sending them to me. I noticed that the prices on the highest health pot at the time were a little low, and I had a massive supply of herbs. I asked the guy sending me herbs to only farm the herbs for that pot.
I then had a huge supply of the health pot mats and would post health pots at a higher price. I'd also bid on everyone else's auctions so that they would cost more than mine. If I won the auction, I'd have more supply, if I lost, then someone reinforced the higher price. This was when average prices calculated by auctioneer-like add-ons were followed religiously. For about a month and a half or so I completely monopolized the Superior health pot market. I started moving down into the Major health pot market and inflating those prices as well as the price of herbs for the potions, since I had a massive supply from bidding up other auctions. I was making on average about 2 gold a day, although that would spike to a 40 gold minimum during the weekend and Thurs/Fri as the raiders came on. This was back when the max level was 60 though, and a lot of people were still saving up the 90g for their mount well up to level 50.
The best part was there was no heavy lifting. Sure there were better ways to make gold, but all I had to do was collect cash from the mail, collect herbs/pots from the mail, possibly make some pots, and then post them.
After a while a bunch of people banded together and starting flooding the market with cheap potions. It wasn't feasible for me to buy them all, and everyone else would just snap them up. They were selling for close to, or less than, the cost of the phials to make them. So I just let all my auctions expire, banked my pots, waited for the market to crash - which it did, rather spectacularly, and then started posting again while the price was up and still climbing.

I'm with you. These are achievements, not gimmes.
Wow... So the 200 tickets I used during Brewfest are essentially wasted. I bought the Brew of the Year membership simply because I wanted the proto within a year of Wrath launch.
Apparently I should have used the tickets to buy the brewfest clothes and dance drunk in Dalaran. The constant nerfing of the Long Strnage Trip achievement is going to make the Violet Proto common on every server. Why not just bump base epic flying to 310 if Blizz is going to make it so easy to get one!
This is not a welcome change. Blizzard is constantly bending over to QQing and bitching on their forums. Next change is going to be all new toons start at level 40. -_-
Yes, because checking your mail once a month for 12 months is so much more achievement-worthy.
Get over it. This was a stupid achievement and it needed to go. It didn't reward effort, persistence, or skill. It rewarded nothing more than just standing around for a year, essentially. Don't sit there and pretend like you're more hardcore than somebody else because you managed to check your mailbox 12 times.
"These are achievements, not gimmes."
Um, "Shave and a Haircut"? "Can I Keep Him?"? "Duel-licious"?
Sorry. Some of them ARE gimmes. The holidays are meant to be fun, entertaining, and have achievements that have range from easy to tough.
How come no one was complaining about Perma-Peddle or Lovely Luck is on Your Side being removed? I had PP a year ago. I wasn't pissed off they removed it, even though I had it.
It's a HOLIDAY ACHIEVEMENT. You want to look impressive to your friends, go grab The Undying. No one's going to say, "Ooh, do me, sexy Brewmaster!" after seeing your title.
Well, okay. Some people might.
@Putts - not sure where the hostility is coming from, but i assure you i am not elite by any standard. and by the way, there was quite a bit more to it than checking your mail. you had to earn enough tickets to get the membership to start with. i personally did the achievement, but not for the drake, everything that i do in this game is for me, not anyone else. i don't do things so i can stand around somewhere and get oohs and ahhs... nor do i stroke a virtual epeen. i just think its sad when things are changed after the fact. granted, circumstances cause changes to be made, but i didn't see where this was a necessary change.
I can't agree with you more. I'm disgusted by all the QQing about the achievements that seemed to be ratcheted up around Valentine's Day.
I'm even more disgusted by the fact that WoW Insider has been one of the most vocal QQers about these things (look up any article surrounding the candies on this site and you'll see what I mean).
It's random. It's not meant for everbody to achieve. It's meant to take time, effort and work to get each of these achievements.
I can't wait to see dozens of protodrakes covering the summoning stone at Nax next October. Sigh.
Bob Dewane said...
Good Freaking God! It's not like this is a 280% mount here. This is the Cadillac 310% one. It SHOULD NOT go to everybody. It SHOULD go to the ones who busted their humps gathering the crazy amount of tokens it took to get Brew of the Month or who logged in evey hour on the hour in pursuit of their bags of candy. I mean even a mount whore like me realized this was too much work given my limited play time.
If this change is fair then so is this one:
I stopped going for the Brewmaster achievement and the Fool for Love achievement when I realized that I jsut wasn't going to have the time to finsih the Brew of the Month and Bag of Candy ones, respectively. Given that, I basically stopped working towards these achievements without finishing other easier parts of the meta achievement. HOWEVER, if I had know that they would be TAKING OUT these two parts of the associated meta achievements, then I would have certainly finished the other, easier ones. SO WHEN TAKING THESE OUT, CAN BLIZZ PLEASE ADJUST MY META ACHIEVEMENTS AND GIVE ME CREDIT FOR THE ONES I DIDN'T DO BUT WOULD HAVE?
I mean, come on! When will it end?
I guess when the Ashes of A'Lar is made a 100% drop from Kael. That's GOTTA be coming, right?
"and by the way, there was quite a bit more to it than checking your mail. you had to earn enough tickets to get the membership to start with."
And Blizzard is going to reward precisely that. But checking your mail once per month for a whole year is plain stupid as an achievement requirement.
rosencratz said...
@Jorge - Agreed. This is not a nerf at all. You still need to farm the same tokens and be a member of the club.... the only difference is now you can take a month or two off between now and next october. It's a bit dodgy of Blizzard to create an achievement that requires you to be logged in for at least 12 consecutive months...
The article is misleading by saying teha chievement is being removed when it's really being changed.

Make a scrolling sign, or a small video display with this 8x8 gridded LED matrix.
Only 1.2"" on a side, it is quite visible but not so large it wont plug into a breadboard. 64 green 250mcd LEDs are contained inside the plastic body, in an 8x8 matrix. There are 16 pins on the side, 8 on each, with 0.1"" spacing so you can easily plug it into a breadboard with one row on each side for wiring it up.Since the display is in a grid, you'll need to 1:8 multiplex control it. We suggest either using a 74HC595 and TPIC6B595 (using the 74HC' to control the 8 anodes at once and then using the TPIC' to drive one cathode at a time) or just using a single MAX7219 which will do the multiplexing work for you.

Good drawing, but sound quality could be better. I had to turn up my speakers to hear it. Subtitles would be helpful. A little short and confusing, but seems cliched.

That was...
Great job! That was awesome, i really have not seen any more of your animations, but definately will now.
Critique: You oculd have made the animation smoother.
But apart from that, great job! It did get me a little confused, but thats probably because i havent seen any more of your work.
Awesome, keep it up.

Over Taxed, TX
November 9, 2011 8:42am
"Its not the veterans that have us in debt, its the rest of the freeloaders we are paying for. "
Well, of course it is not entirely the vets that have bankrupted the government. I didn�t say or imply that. But this amendment is just one more example of pandering politicians adding to an already bloated, bankrupt government by playing on our sympathy for disabled Veterans and putting the burden on property tax payers who already are paying too much.
Non-combat service related disabilities are already compensated by the VA, and I feel that is sufficient. If you feel that is not enough, then please suggest where the federal government can cut spending on other programs and special interests groups to pay for higher VA compensation of our vets. I�m sure Congressman Cuelliar will be all ears.
But, if you want to honor those true heroes, the ones actually injured in combat, we must make sure that freeloaders don't take advantage of our local generosity.
"the VA doesnt give it out like candy."
You say the VA doesn't hand out disability ratings easily. I don't know, but I can't help but feel that many non-combat vets are abusing the system. The process is too complex, entirely too subjective, run by bureaucrats and guided by political correctness. I just don�t trust it, and most Vets don't either. And I don�t think we as property tax payers should be subjected to the decisions of yet another inept federal bureaucracy.
