Do they ever stop? Trying to take our money, that is.

Being a denizen of the Blogosphere is both exciting and depressing. On the one hand, to have a world of news, knowledge and thought bouncing about the entire country and globe between all men & women great and small brings a new perspective on events to the common folks. The downside, however, is that you find out that there is even more bad news out there than you had ever imagined. We know with even more clarity the extent to which our elected politicians, on BOTH sides of the aisle, are sticking it to us.

At every turn, their actions and moves seemingly take aim at anybody that becomes successful or productive in some profitable endeavour here in modern America. There is no end to the growing amount of money (tax dollars) needed to fund socialism here in America. And no end to the creative ways politicians will find to get it.

 

 

 

Not much here is surprising given the 2006 election results, given that much of their rhetoric and motivation appears to be to screw it to large companies that, you know, hire people and power our economy.

But what’s really galling is that (again) some Republicans appear to be joining their crusade, most likely because they think it plays well back home, even though the bill would hurt the overall economy.
