[quote=Anonymous]Folks you have to consider whether Romney will institute any policies different from Bush II's, which simply did not create jobs in the private sector (the losses under Bush have been mitigated under Obama).

I will say that Keystone could at least be routed to avoid major aquifers, or have some sort of triple secret protection in those areas. Fracking/nuclear/offshore drilling -- as long as some of the $$$  goes to mitigate the ill effects on locals (e.g. the burning water faucets) and to fund research on non-carbon based/renewable energy.

Fire and education are local things; so a New England town that is over-staffed with both won't really affect a Mississippi town which could desperately use both. Both anecdotes may be correct.

I would like to know however whether the 22% increase from 97-07 includes special education staffers, where there's been a number of mandates in the past few decades. Also does overall population growth reflect student body growth? If a large part of population growth is the under-18 crowd, then the 22% jump is not unreasonable. [/quote]
