Where do we draw the line?

Asked and answered multiple times already   

You do realize that i was quoting CU.

[sirs]

You do realize I was answering the question being posed

[BT]

Then perhaps you should have replied to CU instead of me. Usually when you quote someone you are replying to them. Or were you trying to make it appear that that was my question?

[sirs]

Then perhaps you should have replied to CU instead of me.

It was an answer posed to the saloon, on a good question posed.  My apologies if you were confused.

[BT]

Not at all. Which is why i quoted CU when i was replying to him. Not sure why you didn't do the same. It just seems to misrepresent who was asking the question.

[sirs]

Again, my apolgies for the confusion, since the LAST thing I want to do is misrepresent anyone, especially you   

[BT]

So you were against the development of drones for military applications?
How about border patrol?

Problem with that?

Development of drones was constitutional.

That was my point.

Yours was?

[Christians4LessGvt]

So you were against the development of drones for military applications?

No....I never said that.

How about border patrol??Problem with that?

Yes....big problem.
Drones on the border are a giant waste of money.
A band-aid joke....like giving a heart attack victim some vitamin c
by people that want to skirt the issue & pretend they are doing something.
You stop the illegal invasion by requiring citizen ID Cards for any job & any service.
Done, over....the illegals A-holes go home and new ones dont come.

Development of drones was constitutional. That was my point. ?

Great...yea....cheer.....go team!......but nothing to do with my point.

Yours was?

my point is you cheerlead gvt investment touting the one's you seem to like
but you leave off the ridiculous wastes of billions some of them produce
and the ones that now will be flying over your house watching you.
my point was your "it's all good" only showing the good needs a counterpoint
cuzzzz it sho aint "all good"

Green tech research is not a waste of money though. Making a transport that travel long distance with less refueling is a great idea and devices with lower power needs is also a good idea.

We're not talking ultra-advance tech here. Alot of our home device can easily be redesigned to use less power. Example the vcr when turn-off is actually almost using the same amount of power as when it's in use.

Samething with alot of old tv's.

I don't believe i "cheerleaded" any expenditure.

What i did say was that spending taxpayer money for the development of Arpanet and the Manhattan Project were constitutional expenditures. And if the Manhattan Project developed expertise that could be used to commercial ends, like nuclear power plants, then the technology should be licensed to the highest bidder for commercial use and as a means to recoup tax payer monies. 

I have never claimed that Solyndra was a wise use of taxpayer funds. Especially considering the weak prospectus they provided. Solyndra was a prime example of pay to play.
A practice i have never endorsed.

And i don't think a national ID card will do what you say as long as cash is legal currency.
