Executives and Politicians who make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year -and have been doing so for many years- can not possibly begin to relate to what you and I are going through.
The politicians who got us into this mess -or sat around collecting a fat paycheck while this whole mess came to be- can not possibly come up with a way out.
This is not a Republican issue. It's not a Democratic issue. It's an issue of greed and stupidity.
Why do a select few get to allocate the hard earned money of millions of hard-working, patriotic people without even consulting with them. Oh yeah... cuz we supposedly elected them to do so. Right.
I'll leave you with the words of Dr. Adrian Rogers, a conservative three-term president of the Southern Baptist Convention:
"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom.
What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."
Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931-2005
