11. Our legislators would rather do ANYTHING

than serve the common person in this state. You know, creating jobs, funding access to education and health care in severely underserved areas, legalizing cannabis use, repairing infrastructure and the like are HARD WORK. And Jeebus does not want our legislators to work very hard here in TN

They have passed and proposed bills to benefit their cronies; their work is done.

Now, it's pander to the Highly Jeebus Voter - whom they will never help economically as long as the HJV will accept these phony "Merry Christmas" tokens in lieu of actual economic opportunity. These bogus crumbs thrown to the easily appeased masses will continue until the upcoming elections. They love to waste our already squandered state funds here.

It's very sad, but they seem to like it here; who am I to say it's not what Jesus really wants for this state?

It hasn't changed since I moved here, so it works for TN, I suppose.
