Another outrage..........

For those who think this is "Tea-Party-far right wing garbage" I respectfully remind them that the data for this was supplied NOT by "right-wing-nut conservatives", but by the LA Times, which is certainly NOT conservative politically...in any way.
Just yet another example....
We are sooooo going down the hot horn shitter!!!

Completely sickening.  But not unexpected.  Nothing seems to surprise me anymore.  And of course, California seems to be the epicenter of stupidity.

Thank you for posting that.

I am going to send this out to a BUNCH of people.

Then there was that video of the woman complaining because her heat subsidy from the gummint had been reduced. As she stood there in her living room, flailing around the last 2 bills showing the drop, one could not help but notice the 60" flat screen in the background.

You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
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 the beginning of the end of any nation.
You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

The gov't doesn't care about "pennies" because it costs them 'dollars" to audit (due to the poor system).  So do NOT expect this to change.

The tax payers deserve this. They allowed it to get to this point.
Reagan said it 30 years ago,"You can't fix cancer with a band aide" Every one said "Damned right " and then screamed like little girls when THEY were expected to give up something.
I've lived in a tent before and if that's what the future holds for me again so be it. The rest of you will continue to be slaves until you quit being owned by your possessions.

What kills me is the first place they look to "cut" is S.S. and Medicare. We PAID into that. If they would have kept their little money grubbing hands off of it to begin with, instead of placing it into the General Fund and pissing it away on every expenditure known to man, S.S. would be so fat right now they'd be lowering the retirement age, not raising it!

Just imagine what you could save the taxpayer if either bunch of these a$$holes REALLY wanted to "cut spending".

1.) Abolish 80% of the IRS in favor of a simple flat income tax. The remaining 20% of the agency would be used strictly to chase down tax cheats who legally owe, but won't pay.

2.) Abolish the "Dept. Of Homeland Security". It never should have been started in the first place. That is why we have and pay a military. Besides Napolitano could stand to lose a few..................hundred pounds.

3.) Abolish Welfare. State at 12:00 Midnight 1/1/12 all Welfare checks will STOP! Watch how fast these people get jobs.

4.) Get out of, and stop funding the United Nations IMMEADEATELY! That organization is the most inept, worthless, and corrupt bunch of total idiots on Earth.

5.) Abolish "farm subsidies". If you want to get paid to be a "farmer", then grow something and sell it for a profit.

6.) Hire that guy with all the question marks all over his suit coat, to go through and abolish all of the programs in the book he tries to sell you, with all of these stupid government programs in it that will pay you $35,000.00 to open up a coffee shop, or $1,200.00 to dye your hair green. Make the late William Proxmire's "Golden Fleece Award" a permanent paid government job. It was one of the few worthy of a salary. We don't need to pay the University Of Calcutta $250,000.00 a year to study Polish bisexual frogs, when our bridges and roads are falling apart all over the country.

7.) Abolish "FEMA". The way they handled New Orleans after Katrina, they should pay us money.

8.) Abolish ANY AND ALL "FOREIGN AID"! From this point on our wealth remains here, not to be given to some stink hole nation that hates our guts in the first place.

9.) Abolish the ATF. We didn't "need" it before, we don't now. Frankly, I can think of worse things than legal machine guns in hardware stores. Especially if they "create jobs".

You could easily get rid of over $4 TRILLION without even blinking an eye, and not a soul would miss it except the lazy, stupid asses getting bed sores on their butts, sitting around collecting a government check. This is totally ridiculous. We're $14 TRILLION IN DEBT and these piss pots are bitching about cutting $30 BILLION? Are they nuts?  Bill T.
