Thank Reagan for the endless begging.

Remember, "Government is the problem"?

He was responsible for dramatically reducing funding for PBS, NPR and
the arts.

Net result:

Endless begging.

Uh, Lew. If these things were of value to the mainstream citizens,
they would easily be funded -without- endless begging. Blame the
content, not the lack of a gov't tit to suck on, for the problem.

The arts? Like Meg Belichick's "Mud Flap", the guy handing out fivers
on NYC streets, and the guy ****ting everywhere as 'art'? They can
fund themselves without taxpayer dollars, please. Feh!
