The Proper Role of Government – this isn’t, and why ARE taxpayer monies being used for Turkey cooking?

White meat equals racism
You Jive Turkey!

There must be many in Government that believe we on the outside can’t do anything on our own without them even as there’s still enough of us out here that hold jobs sufficient to pay their salaries.  We have to be told how to do this, do that, issue regulations to “protect ourselves from ourselves” (e.g., how’s that gas looking on the ground that you spill from those absolutely stupid gas cans they have mandated that we must use).  So, they follow up that turkey in trying to tell us how to cook our Thanksgiving Day turkeys?? Seriously, a HOTLINE – is such a hotline going to be ANY better than the good folks at, say, Butterball (a private sector entity depending on consumer, not taxpayer, funding) who need you to be successful with their product in hopes you will be a repeat customer?

Oh, by the way, do you think that you’ll be able to get a live government person on the phone?  On a Federal Holiday?
