Another compassionate conservative here. Is it OK to waste trillions on our foreign policy so that you feel OK that no American is getting anything for free? Good economic sense here. I consider myself a social liberal and a fiscal conservative myself but I see corporate welfare as wasting MUCH MORE of our money just in uncollected taxes. Why should companies be rewarded for offshoring our wealth? Why should companies be given no bid contracts because of connections? Welfare to citizens is chump change in this country as compared to corporate welfare. But they don''''t want you to see that.

I have some compassion. I believe is taking care of the young, the elderly and the infirmed. After that, my compassion ends. If a person is physically able to work, they NEED to work. Too many people have been raised to depend on the public dole. Nixon wanted to introduce a program called workfare, much like the old CCC or WPA from the Depression era. You would still get a government check, but had to work on government and public projects. Guess what, the liberals in congress stopped it. Said it was against the recipients civil rights to force them to work. At one time, during the founding, in America, the idea was; If you don''t work, you don''t eat. Now we feed them.

There was a ban in place but stores got around the issue of toys because they SOLD THEM AS CAKE TOPPERS. Harry Hines has been cleaned up a lot - still has Massage Parlours and Toy Shops - but not as many scary working girls........

Gee,,I hope they didn''t eliminate the Strip Clubs, on good ole Harry Hines. I even helped build a stage, for one of those places, can''t remember the name. It''s been many moons (more than one type) ago. I miss those days. Ka Ching!!

As a security officer, one of my posts back then was on Harry Hines. I definately agree about the scary girls. No wonder they only came out at night. I took the wife and son down to Dallas a couple of years ago. Was going to show them some of the areas I worked, but couldn''t find any of them. All I saw on Harry Hines was hospitals and clinics now.

Gee, I lived in Plano, TX for 6 years and there were 2 "toy" shops there that I shopped at. This is the first I have ever heard of a ban on *** toys there. It definitely was never enforced.

I lived and worked in Dallas in 86-88. All along Harry Hines Blvd, there were prostitutes, girlie clubs, and adult stores. I also never heard of any ban.
