National defense is good, but why not talk of banks and corporations like GM that now cost taxpayers thousands in future debt! Why not talk about the billions going to Afganistan, a war the politicians don't have the balls to win. Why not talk about the government waste. Pork spending? Corruption? Massive government debt for stuff people will never see the benefit of? Its an Lib-Dim Obamanation.... |

But that repect for others rights doesn't exist in the hearts of lib-dims. Individual liberties are an impediment to good government. You have twisted that. Good government fosters a good environment for people to excel, and that includes the ability to earn and retain the majority of their income. Good government does not tax hard working successful people to bailout corrupt and dysfunctional private companies like GM and the banks. Nor do good governments rack up debt and print/create money so fast no one even knows what it will do to the economy, other than the results will not be good. Japan tried it, recovery took over 10 years. Reagan took less from the middle class and recovery began in a year. Go figure. |
