Government cannot give anything to anyone unless it first takes it away from someone else. Now guess who that unlucky someone will be.
Be it free health care, money to rebuild Iraq or Georgia you will have to pay for it. Now is the time to say "NO!."
People need to be responsible for their own health care; Iraq needs to pay for it's own rebuilding, they have enough oil wealth to do it.
And as for Georgia, we did not break it, so why should we pay for it.
Our country is on the edge of national bankruptcy. The extent of our national debt is staggering. Also, the amount of personal debt is overwhelming.
In the past, government would adopt the "soak the rich" tax programs, but unfortunately, the rich all live in the middle east or China now. They are beyond our taxing authority.
Just say "NO!" to government give aways and special interest projects.
