Very agrreable Cockerel1 but that rant should have been screamed about years ago.

First of all who gave the U.S. government the right to steal all the social security money they now have to pay themselves? Secondly who gave them the right to take the medicare money that every American payed out on a weekly basis to pay themselves?And third why did everyone sit back and let them do it.

We have been giving out billions of dollars to other countries and terrorist for decades now. But they want the people to pay them back? You really want to see real change? Well let's start proposals that make sense.

How about attacking the wall street gangsters real taxes not lobbyist bull. How much do you think it cost for 1 aspirin in a hospital, nursing home, or doctors office. Just add up all the costs alone in just those little things in those places and you might cut out 25% of the budget. The little sticks they put under your tongue. The plastic bags that hold in your drugs and IVs . That cost alone is astronomical.

Then you have police and state officers on every road project making 3 times the pay, government officials making trips on our expense, insurance companies that make billions on your money while fighting with you over the care you paid for 10 to 20 years, and outright transparent manipulation of our real assets.

Lets put some of that up to our lawmakers. They already have a paid job waiting for them, and if they are in service for our country for just a few years they get benefits for the rest of there time in life? What about the people who actually served our country. What do they get for willing to die unjust wars to justify big business and control of others assets? I could go on and on but untill the people stand up to government,[And not with a cup of tea] we will get the same results and worse.

This is a country built by Americans not lawmakers and we are the ones suffering the consequences as is every other government that is enslaved by petty crooks. They let every crook from the Bush administration of the hook for lying to not only Americans but the rest of the world. And what are they doing now. Laughing in our face while eating the fruits of our labor. Every state should be standing up in every city asking each and everyone of them to step down now and leave our country just like they do to all the leaders of the global world.

Until that day comes we will not change anything.
