Ok folks, better sit down. You've heard me say before how out of touch with reality our Washington politicians are. Like they live on a different planet, maybe even different universe. Here's the latest proof. This is Harry Reid during a TV interview:
“Listen, we’re willing — the president has stuck his neck way out. He’s willing to do a lot of stuff with spending, but there has to be some reciprocity here. Once Republicans decide that they’re going to let — keep in mind, also, that the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. The rich know that. The rich are willing to pay more. They’re not the ones out here saying, ‘please don’t tax me.’
“The only people who feel there shouldn’t be more coming in to the federal government from rich people are the Republicans in the Congress. Everybody else, including rich people, are willing to pay more. They want to pay more. So, yeah, but we’re going to have to have mainstream Republicans step up again.”
If you don't believe this is true, watch for yourself : http://www.inquisitr.com/1006383/harry-reid-everyone-wants-to-pay-more-taxes-gop-wont-let-them-listen/
That's not all, he also says "We don't have a spending problem, we don't have a debt problem, we have a funding problem". Yep, that's right, let's just take 100% of everyone's income and we'll decide how we'll dole it out.
I've said before, "we the people" are the problem. The close to half of us who are receiving some kind of government assistance will continue to vote for those who give it, and half of the other half are either to apathetic to vote, or just won't take the time. Are YOU willing to put forth the effort to encourage everyone you know to get registered, and then keep on them to actually go to the polls come election time?
If you are not part of the solution, then you are part of the problem.
