Government types are always making grandiose plans for the future. I guess that is why they succeed sometimes. They plan and make goals and work to achieve them.
Meanwhile, the rest of us are just able to get by day to day. That needs to change, so here is my proposal for the New Box Elder County.
The current Box Elder County runs from east of Mantua all the way to Nevada! It is a huge county that is filled with a lot of worthless, salt encrusted, sage brush and rocks. It is too big. While all of the population is concentrated from Tremonton to Willard.
My purpose in proposing this is to decentralize the county and make government move closer to those it is supposed to represent.
When (not if) the checks from Washington no longer come with regularity, or at all, (Remember the $19 trillion federal debt?) that will be a good chance to recoup our liberties that have been vacuumed up by DC.
In that spirit, I propose the following realignment of the county lines:
This way, people in Park Valley will not be paying taxes for the court house in Brigham City, the sheriff, county fairgrounds, etc. And folks in Brigham won't have to see their taxes support deputies patrolling the lonely wasteland between Snowville and Lucin and getting into mischief.
Folks in Park Valley can build a 10,000 square foot marble courthouse if they wish, or they can convene in a tough shed. More and smaller counties mean more representative government, less likely to run amok because they are being observed 24/7 by the neighbors.
Oh, and did I mention my plans for Box Elder School District? Dissolution. The concomitant loss of faith in the promises of Washington when the checks no longer come, will open parents' eyes to the biggest cheerleaders of Washington's follies - public schools.
What will take it's place? - ten thousand private and home schools, individually meeting the education needs of children, as directed by their parents, as it should be.
That's my vision.
