You are right, lets just give all of our money to the gov. Because they know best, especially considering it is nothing more than an assembly made of us. They are the ones, you have to remember, that have put us more than 11 trillion and debt and they continue to do so. They spend money they don't have and its okay. We can't do the same. It is illegal. When we owe them money they have 6 years to get it, when they owe us money, we have 3 years to get it. But yea, you are right.
I suggest getting an education and a job that puts more that $30K in your pocket each year. Feel what it is like to have to make ends meet for an average person going through a good college. No extra scholarships because we are not a portion of some special interest group. Try doing that while paying a mortgage. Now have some BSing dumb ass come into the office and pass some bogus bills that no one reads, and oh shit, now you have to pay a TON more in taxes. Then maybe you will start to see the light. Until then I suggest you shut your dumb mouth.
Again, some major flaws.
#1 They spend money they don't have? No. The democrats that are running this coutry borrow or well earned money that they created in the first place and are investing.
#2 They spend less money they don't than we as everyday people do. Remember the credit crunch which was major contributing factor in the way our economy is today. Yeah, COMSUMERS spending omney they did not have. Oh yeah.... now I remember.
#3 "they" have put us in 11 trillion dollars in debt. And guess what? Our "great" Republican ex-president that we just kicked out office by majority vote caused more than 1/3 of our current defict. That's got to tell you alot about what MOST Republican presidents do for our country.
#4 Again, remember the times after the 80's recession? Who was in office then? Oh right! The very smart democrats. What did they do for our country? Well let me name a few of the many things.
-Bosltered the economy
-Created a great housing market which remained stable
-Helped keep the land clean or good
-Made car companies produce more efficiant cars
-Not one war
-We stayed out of most people's problems
-Better education
-Better civilian infratructure
-Ect.
And for your information, I am not nearly as well off as you are money and finance wise. My dad makes $90,000 a year. My parents are divorced. This $90,000 dollars is split up between two families, three morgages, and $150,000 in debt. I am a full-time high school junior who has to work 6 hours a day 7 days a week just to pay for my own clothes, car payment (and related), and have enough money to buy my own food. I'm 17 and I have to pay for my own stuff. How pathetic is that? At least you're on your own and are supposed to have to pay for everything yourself. I shouldn't have too.
