Statement of Principles


Nevada government keeps getting bigger and BIGGER. We deserve minimum, strictly limited, constitutional government in this State.

Forget all this blather about a $3B "shortfall". The budget for the '12/'13 biennium should be no more than $200M.

CCSD Throws TD Passes To Football. Crumbs To Academics.

Rulffes said "We have librarians, P.E. (physical education) aides, computer specialists, counselors. We have arts and music. We only have minimal impact on sports. I believe, for the funding, the public is getting a good bang for its buck."

Why does CCSD need librarians? The kids can't read. PE? The kids are sugar-filled marshmallows. The kids don't need Computer Specialists to help them play video games. Those pathetic counselors are the ones responsible for this mania about passing flunkards in order to guard their self-esteem.

What is this emphasis on sports? If boys want to play football, they can join Pop Warner. School is supposed to be about the 3R's, not PP&K. Of course, CCSD is all about *politics*, so that means maintaining popular support for itself through any means necessary, especially football. And you can hire a good piano teacher to come to your house for only ~$25/hr.

If Rulffes thinks we're getting good bang for the buck, then I wonder what he considers a *bad* deal.
