Well, this stuff irritates me to no end, but really...whose fault is it?

Of course it’s the fault of Government and our loser CongressCritters, and fifty-plus years of Socialism being crammed down our throats, BUT...

...it is ALSO the fault of you, me and every OTHER taxpayer who knowingly GIVES their hard earned dollars to Uncle Sam as an interest-free loan each and every year and then salivates, waiting for their tax refund!! Aarrgghh! It’s YOUR money - quit giving it away!

So, who’s the sucker? Yep. Each and every one of you that doesn’t pay attention to your base tax rates and the taxes you knowingly and unknowingly pay (but can learn about!) day in and day out. (I live in Wisconsin; I know all about high tax rates!)

Government does not produce ONE RED CENT to support itself year in and year out. Those trillions of dollars it’s blowing through? Yep. Yours. All yours!

Stop the cashflow to the Beast that is Big Government, and it will die. My poorly-run state is laying off goobermint workers, not filling vacancies and also furloughing workers! It’s a start! :)

Tax revenue flowing into Government is already DOWN 25% right now JUST due to the 0bamaconomy. If each and every one of you (becasue I already do) would pay a little bit of attention and get your own finances in order, we could have that down/up to 50% in lost revenue to Big Government in a heartbeat! Well, within a year at this rate.

I’m just sayin’...we’re knowingly funding these people and their grifter lifestyles. B*tchin’ about it is just that.

Action is required, Freepers! :)

7/10 black kids are raised without a father. According to this article 25% of children are getting Food Stamp support.

If we don’t stop it now, these demographics will kill us.

You are correct, and I'll go so far as to say we are way overdue for civil rebellion, war if it becomes necessary.
We will have to be the ones to put a stop to it.Does anyone think that the recipients of free living are going to stop taking it voluntarily? Does anyone think that politicians who derive their power from promising free handouts are going to stop providing them? What percentage of the politicians running this country right now care one damn bit about this nation over their own power and position? This so called “healthcare bill” should speak volumes about the real intent of the elitist liberals running this country.
We don't have a lot of time ,either. Slipping into an old Soviet-style government WILL be the result of inaction, and we may never get out from under the oppression that will bring.

Exactly.

Get yourself a copy of Turbo Tax or something and fire up the deductions. Max out your charitable giving - etc. - by the end of the year rather than give it to Uncle Sam!

Starve the beast!

Good observations Diana! I've given up alcohol for the duration of the ObaMao regime. Too much of what I pay for a six-pack feeds the government coffers.

I'm taking every deduction I can find and working hard enough to just get by. I'm tired of seeing my overtime and second jobs just being grabbed by the tax man.

I also claim enough exemptions that my tax refund (interest free loan to fedgov) is a modest $300 or so.
