Well it is the onion. And why do you think we are one of the developed
nations these days? We manufacture little, we have a huge welfare roll,
and we have inner-city areas where the violence is on a par with Somalia
and Ruwanda and other 3rd world countries. Our government polo is are
leading us to a 3rd world status, and may already be a 2nd world. Living
on credit does not work forever.

Spending all your resources on war and tax cuts doesn't help.

We are not spend all are resources on war. Spending too much. Tax cuts?
We are still paying some of the highest overall tax rates in our history.
In the 1950's when we built an interstate highway system, and lots of other
infrastructure, we had an overall rate of about 22%. Add up all the taxes
we paid and average family paid 22% of their income. Closer to 46% now.
What are we doing with record spending? Some for war, but more for a huge
dole to non workers. 2 years of unemployment, with no requirement to even
look for a job, or get training. Multigenerational families on welfare.
Want to spend more money on social engineering, when we are not spending
much on keeping the country functionally running. Keep buying votes for
yourself. Huge spending on education, or at least on salaries and
benefits. But little actual education being done. First in spending, 24th
in results per student. Cities that are bankrupt, because they pay both
the highest salaries for jobs, with solid platinum retirement bennies.
Unfunded future liabilities. What are your grand kids going to say, when
they get the bill for our indulgences?

So what... When does being called a racist by a liberal really mean
anything?
