Yeah, I really enjoy their "Social Engineering Ahead" billboard.  I always
wonder why the accompanying photo doesn't show a kid with his or her hand
over her heart, saying the Pledge of Allegiance.

Is there anything as much fun as idealogues with more dollars than sense?

Subject: [Mpls] New Taxpayers League Billboards


I've seen the billboard from the Taxpayers League "Light Rail Brought to you
by Big Government" which I found highly amusing.  It left me wondering who
built the roads...

The latest one, which I haven't seen (I'm told it's in Blaine) is shaped
like a ballot box.  It has four "candidates" that you can "vote" for:

Roads  (Republican)
Rail (Democrats)
Don't Know (Independence)
Bikes (Green)

There's a big check mark by "Roads".  Again I'm left wondering.  Isn't the
Taxpayers' League primarily opposed to government spending?  Wouldn't the
cheapest answer be "Bikes"?
