police officers and against body armor for them. No, she is
against having the federal government pay for these things.
When the federal government pays, then our taxes rise and we go
even deeper into debt. Love knows that if we keep more of our
money locally, and pay for things as states and communities,
then we get more bang for our buck and have a lot more control.
Jim Matheson, on the other hand, is a big-spending, big-
government politician whose approach only perpetuates a
monstrous, out-of-control federal government. Love's wise
approach would reverse this destructive trend.  Gerald Larsen
