Well said, Great post spot on, Yes so much could be done and you have only scratched the surface ,your first few examples of a simple fix are exactly Right .
Now you have an issue, what you said makes complete sense of the politicians just used common sense !
Which then can only lead me to the following two possibilities 1- either they lack absolute common sense and are completely incompetent, or 2- they know exactly what they are doing and are systematically destroying our country?
