Politics and government have always been about using violence to force people to do things they don’t want to do (how many people want to pay taxes?). Up until recently, the government was somewhat successful at keeping that fact from the sleeping masses. However, with the “bailouts,” “healthcare,” global warming hoax, et. al., more people are waking up. Let’s hope that enough get so enraged that they stop complying with the government’s dictates (“laws”) in such large numbers that the government is not able to enforce them.
And, no, “electing different people” will do nothing to solve the problem.
We are at a period in our history in which the American Public has almost completely lost confidence in both Government and Big Business. This is due to a large degree to the improvements in communication that point out the crookedness of each both graphically and dramatically. Now we have an enormous and deliberate misreprestation to the American Public and to the stockholders of AIG that is originated by Government Agencies with the aid and cooperation of Big Business. We’d better do something about it. The “Throw the bums out Tea Party” mentality of today is prevolent because one can’t tell the “good guys” from the “crooks”. The situation is not helped by the “good old boy” network that insures exorbitant salaries for incompentent executives. Just think about how these compensation amounts have been set. There is a lot of room today for real honest reformers. Are the President and the Congress listening?
I am so sick of watching this great nation that I love and would give my life to protect destroyed by this administration and congress. When did we fall in love with socialism? I dont remember this being discussed during last years campaign. I do remember Obama telling us that the healthcare debate would be on CSPAN!
Why can’t we know where our tax money went? Someone please give me a good answer.
I am sure Geitner got a pocketful and he couldn’t even pay his taxes!
Sadly this article has 99% trueth to it. Most of the bail out money taht went to AIG was passed through to save the banks.
If America was told where most of the AIG bailout money wound up I think many of us would start claiming 99 dependents and pay no taxes.
Sad isn’t it.
