Re：Politics Date Posted：2025-11-03 04:25:30Copy HTML With the harsh winter just around the corner crews have been out all summer repairing the roads. Most of the time it is government employees doing the job, some of the time private companies. It seems like the private companies do the job in less time & with less workers. Now if we expand this example to all types of services the government offers, the question must be asked............Can the private sector do this task, or must government? |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2025-11-03 05:31:41Copy HTML Should they all be prosecuted or none? Can't pick and chose your victims. US law is different from British law. Former Vice President Biden was wrong to leave classified material in an open area, where anyone can see it. I have a couple articles that might help, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classified_information_in_the_United_States |

The state of Tennessee allows state and local (city and county) governments to do contact work. In my opinion, private companies can do contact work for governments. |

I agree, but the question is.............Should government duties like road work be completely taken over by private contractors. The benefits would be no lifelong government pensions, work done faster & cheaper because you can use one contractor against another for better prices. |

Tennessee has TDOT (TN Dept. of Transportation). Each city and county has their own DOT to cover local or county roads. |

N.Y. has state, county, local employees & it depends on which jurisdiction the road comes under. So, it is a patchwork of government agencies. My thought is to privatize the whole thing. Would save $ & confusion as to responsibility. |

Re：Politics Date Posted：2025-11-03 10:54:52Copy HTML Democrats on the House Oversight Committee are demanding that ex Prince Randy Andy testify before their committee on the Epstein files. The thread that could unravel the whole garment. |
