From Missouri: Change I can believe in...

Here's an interesting bit of common sense from Missouri, courtesy of the Kansas City Star:

Republican House budget leaders are proposing to cut spending for social services rather than use federal economic stimulus dollars.

Okay, the GOP suggestion may sound cruel, but governments, just like working families, should look at ways to tighten their belts.

There's nothing cruel about it. Social programs and services cost money. There is surely someone else out there who could provide these programs and services better than government could. Who says government has to be the only provider? Who says that this has to be paid by the taxpayer?
