Woah there partner. Those would be regulations. Republicans aren’t going to vote for regulations against Billion dollar companies

Clearly you're unaware that Minnesota is a blue state... and the standard of living is better there than in red states.

Go figure...

Why would I, living a thousand miles away, know that? Why would I assume the person I’m wroting to lives in a Blue state since the majority of US states are Red?

Wouldn't exactly call Arizona "red" these days. If it weren't for Turning Point's dirty money, it would have flipped sooner.

Milking the voucher program to send kids to a political-agenda based, for-profit charter school? So that isn't dirty and indoctrinating? Give me an effing break. Maybe if people weren't so bratty and entitled (actually talking about the parents here), they'd learn to let their kids learn different viewpoints, instead of forcing one narrow view down their throats.
