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.

Townhall with Klaich

Originally posted in a LVRJ forum

Nobody asks Klaich the obvious questions:
  1. Why do you deserve to be paid >twice what we pay Gibbons?
  2. Why do you pay Division 1 sports coaches as much as their professional league peer group?
  3. What happened to all that trust money (granted in 1868) which was set aside to perpetually fund UNR departments of Mining, Agriculture and Engineeering?
  4. Why do you continue to fund JUNK departments like "University Studies" which only serve to provide academic cover to jocks?
  5. What percentage of your football and basketball players ever graduate? [it's significantly < non-athletes]
  6. How much do your sports marketing partners -- t-shirts, posters, TV, etc -- make off your teams?
  7. Why do you fund a law school? Are there too few laws and lawyers in this state?
  8. Why are so many NSHE buildings named after Senator Raggio?
  9. Why do you pay clinical professors $400K? Do they use our resources to support their private medical practices?
  10. Your course catalogs describe NSHE's mission in very grandiose, pompous terms. Do you even *know* what NSHE's mission is supposed to be?
  11. How many of your employees are related by family or marriage to state legisators?
  12. How much money does NSHE spend on lobbyists?
Tick tick. I'm waiting.
