I started to make mention the schools would close, but this ignorant bunch you are talking about, probably just as soon their kids didn't have to go to school anyway so they would wind up being as dumb or dumber than their parents.

Typical left wing response -- there must be all or nothing. Either, the smothering state, or anarchy -- no Golden Mean of a smaller federal government.
Plus, seeweed, didn't read the poll results or he would have known it was the federal government that was identified as the problem, not local and state/
Therefore, his rant, "if their garbage didn't get picked up, or the police didn't respond to a urgent request for help, or the fire truck didn't show up if their house caught on fire, their Social Security check didn't show up., or they didnt have Medicare to depend on when they went to the doctor, or , at least for this area, if their power went off." is way off base. Garbage pickup, fire fighting, and police are functions of local government. Power production (except, for a few areas like TVA) is a private and/or local function.
Lefties don't like the present population of voters and are doing their best to replace them by importing such.
