I don't even see what they use this extra money on but i'm sure it's a giant waste always is..

I own a small business but i can't afford to hire anyone outside my family because of all the hoops and stuff I have to jump though... not to mention all the extra money i have to put out to try to give someone an 8 dollar an hour job that they are only gonna see 5 an hour of after they get raped by the state and feds..

I am soooooo frustrated with the current state of things.. i fee like our whole country is coming to an end soon..it cant possibly sustain at this rate.. and i barely care if it does have to get flushed..
I don't think it would be such a bad thing for the government to learn to live within its means like the rest of us have to. Let it shut down except for essentials.

This is dated a few years ago, but if anything things have gotten worse....


How many zeros in a billion???

This is too true to be funny...

The next time you hear a politician use the word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of it's releases.

A.. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

B. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

C. A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.

D. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

E. A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the rate our government is spending it. While this thought is still fresh in our brain... let's take a look at New Orleans .... It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division.


Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D) is presently asking Congress for 250 BILLION DOLLARS to rebuild New Orleans .. Interesting number... what does it mean?

A. Well... if you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans (every man, woman, and child) you each get $516,528.


B. Or... if you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.

C.. Or... if you are a family of four... your family gets $2,066,012.

Imagine, now $700 billion bailing out banks in the US . That's enough to fund complete medical care for every man, woman and child currently alive in the US for 11 years!!

50 billion to bail out the auto industry???

Washington , D.C. & Ottawa ON.

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago... and our nation was the most prosperous in the world. We had absolutely no national debt... We had the largest middle class in the world.. and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What happened? Can you spell 'politicians!' And I still have to press '1' for English.

Out here in Kalifornia, there is a push right now to allow every local government to tax your income!!!! Every county and city; even the local community college will have the ability to tax your income if this bill gets passed!!!!!!!
