or they need a cop not to use a GASP socialist system like Fire and Police. Tell them to call a CEO for help.

In many or most cities your tax $$$ go to maintain public golf courses. If you don't golf you still PAY. How many of those Republican asshats that hate Guberment and socialism hit the links when the weather is nice. The alternative is a TRUMP Country club that 99% of his bone head voters could NEVER afford. So they use socialism to golf.
