The U.S. deficit just passed $12 TRILLION. It hit $11 Trillion just 8months ago. Based on the latest census numbers, every man, women, and child in the US owes $39,500 for their share of the national debt. Each individual’s share has increase by $3300 in the last 8 months.

I heard this question posed and thought it was pretty interesting. If both Democrats & Republicans are against deficits and high taxes, why do we have deficits and high taxes? Our current problems are not caused by Democrats or Republicans, they are caused by politicians. It does not matter the party affiliation. Every Politian wants to increase government take more of your money.

The deficit is at a level that the probability of the country going bankrupt is greater then the probability of paying off the debt. It is sad to think that we have burdened many future generations with this debt.

If we want to fix this problem we need to replace every politician in Washington and start fresh with people who more closely resemble the average American. In the American population less then 1% of the population is composed of millionaires. In Washington 54% of congressmen are millionaires and 40% of senators are millionaires. Do you think they really represent you?

How much tax is enough to pay for health care

Do you know the Senate health care bill is proposing to raise your taxes? They want to increase the rate of medicare tax on your payroll. While cost estimates are not out on the Senate bill yet, you can bet it will be far more expensive then the costs to the American people today. The government just keeps spending money it does not have and can not possibly get. Estimates of the House bill are at about a TRILLION dollars. How in the world will the government get that money? Do you realize if the government took 100% of all the profits of the 100 largest companies from the Fortune 500, excluding those that lost money and took bailout funds, that would only cover half. The top 100 companies had $450 billion in profits last year. That means you the individual have to pay.

The new preamble of the Constitution

We the government of the United States, in order to form a more controlling government, establish mediocrity, insure domestic oppression, provide for the common defense of man made disasters, promote general health care, and remove the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ignore and reject the Constitution of the United States of America.

Wake up and read the Constitution!

wake up and read the Constitution! The government is a servant of the people - NOT the other way around.
