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.

CSN: Egalitarianism Run Amok

Originally posted in a LVRJ Forum

A CSN degree is *worthless*. The crooked politicians use the "everyone should go to college" mantra as a pretext for paying off their cronies, ie the academic unions, construction contractors, service providers, and so forth.

The Constitution established the original UofNV (now UNR) to provide practical instruction in just three applied science fields (Agriculture, Mining, and Engineering). Maybe only 10% qualify. When 90% of the people are ineligible, they might become resentful and lobby their state legislators to spend the money *elsewhere*. That is why NSHE is eager to operate waste like CSN, Division I sports, etc. It helps broaden the political constituency for higher education.
