Government is bleeding us dry? Last I checked we haven't had any brutal tax increases in awhile. Actually most are still getting those tax returns. The whole idea that the government is bleeding us dry of money is media bullshit. We are bleeding ourselves dry is the truth. Our awful spending on credit and debt is what ruined us. If you want something blame... blame yourselves and your private sector. Government didn't do anything... they only reacted when you started complaining. Mainly when towards the businesses because of coruse the fault can never be ours. Drive of course by fear. The same fear that led the people giving up something more precious than money, liberties, after 9/11.
You can point the finger at whoever you want but you make sure it's always directed back right at the people that allow it to happen... the people. To live in such a fortunate country where it never has to get to such pathetic displays of hypocritical self interest as these "tea parties". The government is simply trying to alleviate the problem right now... the one we caused. Or if you want some structure to blame... blame the one that has complete control over your money, the Federal Reserve System. Government is just putting your money back into the economy while they make it more worthless everyday. Blame the corporations who's credit lines were bad from the beginning and "created money" to further loans( against the law by the way) and devalue the dollar. And most of all blame the people who were too damn ignorant and who get their biased opinions from CNN or Fox News or even CBS instead of actually breaking down the facts. The same people who spent on credit and eventually debt and out of fear started the government intervention. There's where your blame should be.
