I wish writers/reporters would replace the word “federal government” with “taxpayers”.

It’s as if the “federal government” has some kind of money tree and we have nothing to do with it.

So just like the bank bailouts, we again have companies that are too big to fail that taxpayers have to prop up.

We don't as far as most politicians and govt workers are concerned. I tell my sons that pols and govt workers work from the premise that all monies, do in fact, belong to the govt and they graciously allow us to keep some.

I really believe they think this way. Just talk to any fireman or cop or any other govt worker. Getting paid by the govt has become an entitlement.

It*s up to us. The Democrat media sure as hell won*t.

And BTW, I recommend *Democrat media* over *lamestream* or *leftist.* It makes the issue understandable to the lofos, and there is no rhetorical comeback.
