They're really harping on the federal workers not getting paid.

Not trying to be obtuse at all.

From the USMS website:

The offices of U.S. Marshals and Deputy Marshal were created by the first Congress in the Judiciary Act of 1789, the same legislation that established the Federal judicial system. The Marshals were given extensive authority to support the federal courts within their judicial districts and to carry out all lawful orders issued by judges.

In this context, "congress", counts as government. The "judiciary act", counts, as having been established by "government".

Unless im missing something. What am i missing?

Besides, using the strictest definition of a government:

gov·ern·ment
/ˈɡəvər(n)mənt/Submit
noun
1.
the governing body of a nation, state, or community.

[guhv-ern-muh nt, ‐er-muh nt]
ExamplesWord Origin
See more synonyms for government on Thesaurus.com
noun
the political direction and control exercised over the actions of the members, citizens, or inhabitants of communities, societies, and states; direction of the affairs of a state, community, etc.; political administration:


If the people of a community, forming a group, with the purpose of establishing a way to project force, and compel others to follow rules, is the definition of government law enforcement, then government law enforcement is thousands of years old.

Cavemen formed government, and policed.

The Marshals service is primarily responsible for the transport of federal prisoners, serving federal warrants, recovering federal fugitives.

The Texas Rangers were established in 1835

The official, as in estblished by the city government, New York City Police Department was established in 1845.

There are too many for me to reasonable look up.

But, i get the point you guys are making. Its rediculously out of control. There are thousands of law enforcemt agencies, overly redundant and the cost is a massive economic drain.
 
Honest question
Do you farm or work in agriculture?

Honest answer. My family farmed for well over a century and I've done my share. I've also worked in the ag chemical field off and on over the last 35 years.

you probably believe everything those same "scientists" say about man made global warming. Er I mean climate change

My comments on climate change research have been posted on the Hide a few times. I have done research in atmospheric chemistry that was funded by climate change money. I flew out of Veracruz during MIRAGE and was blown away by so many of the researchers talking about climate change research as a field that looked to be drying up. IIRC, there were 153 researchers on MIRAGE and I only heard one of them (a university prof from Mexico) preaching about global warming. Every conversation I had with PIs revolved around the need - literally - for about a million times higher data density in order to make a correlation. I realize this is heresy from the science side, because if you say that we don't have direct evidence, it might lead to cuts in funding.

The finger is NEVER pointed at non farm sources.

Sure it is. Some of the links I posted talk about various contributing sources. The problem is that as municipalities have been working to clean up their shit, the farms have been using much more fertilizer.

If you do come from a farm background you are either stupid or just being a troll

The Google search "sewage spill" tells you all you need to know about the sewage treatment plants that you say "are cleaning up their act". 100 gallons of cow manure runs over a manure pit and it's a disaster with massive clean up and fines. 10 million gallons of raw human manure goes right into a river and it's a minor blip on the news and that's it.

Farmers are using using less fertilizer and less tillage. Fertilizer applications are split and precisely applied. The fertilizer grows a crop that is harvested. All those yards and golf courses aren't harvesting anything.

If you're that dense that you don't think the overpopulated wildlife contribute to the pollution, I can see why you are no longer farming. Even your environmentalist buddies talk about it. Il detract that earlier "never" and replace it wait a "rarely"

I'm 5th generation and put in 30 years.
I am in a fairly high competition area of the farming community.
Making a general statement about over fertilization isn't resonable.
NH3 is expensive enough that over application is more than rare in this locale.
For reference not uncommon to hear of 300 bu/acre corn and 100 bu/acre beans.
With the cash rent prices pissing away fert/inputs will not pencil around here.
It has been more than popular to point the finger at the most productive/efficient farmers in the world.
Nitrates in watersheds surrounded by expensive housing has many origins.

Let's see your raw sewage and human livestock charts from 1900 to now.

And more fertilizer use does not equal more n runoff.

Should read:
"...consolidated and expanded as an industry while using less fertilizers and pesticides."

Interestingly, there are some surprising studies done on the effect of the human population's sewage containing active elements of prescription medications. I recall reading not too long ago that all the fish in the Shenandoah were on Prozac and it was effecting population numbers. I ain't been able to eat a thing out of that water for the last 20 years anyway.

You need a graph that shows yeild to NH# application rates...
Over the last 40 years should do.

BTW- Who do you work for?

Doesn't matter. All that extra fertilizer ends up in the gulf
None of it is in the grain or fodder

this stuff is like global warming. The Mississippi was muddy way before America was settled. There is natural fertilizer mineralization and erosion. But it's all farmers fault. They are stupid and just dump fertilizer on the fields.

If that's what you need to get your warm and fuzzy, go for it. That does not change the fertilizer runoff total load on the rivers. I said above that I understand the history of improving yields. I said also that American farmers are feeding more than their share and that there are other sources of N other than fertilizer. Deersniper's rant that started this off-topic sub-thread was not accurate regarding CSO's, so keep on ignoring the truth.

You are assuming everyone affected has been on the job long enough to build up a proper savings. Did you get issued a savings account when you started a job? How long did it take you to build one up? How long could you go without a paycheck? How long till they repossess the single wide?

I can go for at least a year, maybe more. If you are making $80k-$100k+ a year and you have no savings then something is wrong. I don’t even make that and like I said I coukd go a year. Three weeks shouldn’t be an issue, really. The dems are making this out to be way worse than it is.

They don’t want to pay for a wall, fine, I don’t want to pay for all the shit I pay for either. Sadly, I don’t get much of a choice do I?
 
I am just trolling you a bit, I dont care how much of this shit they dump on the fields I just want a corn muffin...

I will say this though if we would stop sending our excess food outside the country we wouldn't have so many fucking people in the world and so many illegals coming here, We are interfering with Darwin.

Quit whining.

Golf course over-fertilization is a similar problem to crop over-fertilization - both are done to make money. Now go find the numbers - tons of fertilizer put on golf courses and compare that to crop fertilizer tonnage. Put that in perspective.

I don't even slightly discount dumping raw sewage. But I also know there have been well-funded programs across the US to reduce municipal raw sewage dumping. For decades... And it is working. LOL.

I'm not going to criticize the wildlife for shitting in the woods. I see lots of wildlife feces on dry ground, so that's not the same as shitting in the water directly.

My original reply on this topic was in response to your comment:

"Stop blaming farmers for water quality issues when from coast to coast, raw sewage is dumped in the tributaries every time there is a half inch or more of rain."

The tag to rain implies CSO and related raw sewage dumps along with old systems with leaks that leak more during hard rain. The point you seem to be missing is that farm over-fertilization is usually mentioned in civil-engineering publications as a primary source of N & P leading to hypoxia. All of these sources are real and contribute to the problem but it's not like we need to point the finger at CSOs and ignore the fertilizer.
Ok not 99%. Well call that the vast majority instead. Because farms are the only thing you lay much blame to. Everything else is inconsequential or "being well funded "

well I think any data on nitrogen from 1880 is kind of a guess at best or an outright lie, ala Greenpeace al gore style.

You think the new data is bogus? Because that's where the problem is at - not back in 1880. If you think the new data is bogus, show me more accurate data or don't bother with your Al Gore bullshit. I detest that fucker.

Sure, starve them out - sounds like a solid plan for the American farmer. I do like the radical population reduction plan though.
 
Oh so you are retarded or was that somebody bullying you and being a meanie?

Just because you put up a power point chart by the bank of the globalists does not mean it is correct or even close to correct, you are the one making assertions that they could measure fertilizer usage back to 1880, that should be a sign to anyone who is a thinking person.

Your data set is convoluted to say the least.
As you haven't understood my previous post I'll FIFY.
Show a NH3 input pounds actual per bushels raised per acre.
I'll bet there is a version from the USDA.
You have been more than a little shy about your current vocation.
Quoting World Bank info has been fun and all but when did they become the "Authority" on agribusiness?
My thoughts are it meets your specific ideas.

Not sure how we got so off thread. So I will comment.
The reason the Dems and Media are harping on workers not getting paid is because it is the ONLY negative to the shut down.
Everything else is a positive. Like most hard working Americans I have not noticed anything different in my life.
The longer it goes it hurts the dems more I think, could be wrong on that but oh well.
 
A fucktard. Is that like a cross between a fuck and a tard? Who also happens to be liberal?

Duh. What leftist fucktard is not arrogant and feels superior in their own ignorance?

I’m glad you feel superior though, because you would probably kill yourself if you stared reality in the face.


With such a logical and well thought out position, im obviously way out of my league here, arguing with you guys ;)

I'm going to confess something though. I cheated. ?

I resorted to -looking things up-, and verifying that the information was correct, --before--, posting.

I know, i know. Dick move!

In 1900 the US population was appx 60'000,000. 60 percent of which lived in rural communities.

Currently, the population is 325,000,000, and 80% are urban city dwellers.

Any guess as to the percentages of the population gainfully employed in 1900 vs 2018? How about the percentage on welfare then vs now? The percentage of children raised in a single parent household?

So, you guys are saying that the same law enforcement methods employed in 1900 would be effective now?

Why would i ever question your logic, its so, well, logical! ?

The trend im seeing here, is that if one uses data, from sources, (obviously faked data, cause it disagrees with the opinion of, some guy), then that person is a retard, oe perhaps a fucktard. If they get all sciencey, throwing out math n shit, well, then they are the worst thing of all, a retarded liberal fucktard!

Shocked! Shocked i tell you! That the liberals like to talk down to our side, with the amount of thought that goes into your opinions! Thinking they are so superior! The gall!

You guys are awesome!
