THE TRUTH ABOUT "GOVERNMENT" IN AMERICA
GOVERNMENTS in America - federal, state and local - are a $ 5,000,000,000,000 (that is FIVE TRILLION) tax-monster and it is eating us alive ! Those zeros are not just zeros, they are real money and let me make it more graphic $ 5,$$$,$$$,$$$,$$$.
What does that mean to you? How does it affect you? Where is that ocean of money going? Do you have to pay? HOW ARE YOU GOING TO PAY ? These are the questions you should be asking yourself, if you pay taxes.
FIRST, LET US REVIEW SOME OF THE WAYS GOVERNMENT SPENDS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR, WHILE YOU ARE STRUGGLING TO MAKE ENDS MEET.
First of all, if you pay income tax, which is the major source of income for government, every time the federal government spends a billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) you have to come up with $ 8.00.
Remember, the top half of almost 135 million federal tax payers, pays 97% of income tax. That is more than 65 million people paying only 3% of taxes.
These 65 million Americans are not only paying very little in taxes, but the government is overtaxing the rest of the people and giving away money to them because they are STATISTICALLY POOR.
Every year the federal government sends thousands of dollars to many "statistically poor" Americans and call it TAX REFUND. How can you get a refund of $1,500 if you paid only $ 762? This is just plain armed robbery!
I think it was Richard Nixon and Daniel P. Moynihan who came up with this scheme to "help the poor." And they called it the fancy name "REVENUE SHARING."
THE PURPOSE OF BIG GOVERNMENT:
So why did the wise guys/gals running the government come up with massive, unjustifiable taxation and spending schemes?
(1) To expand government and create millions of secure, life-time guaranteed, high paying jobs from which labor unions can siphon money.! And Unions work hard to make sure the election of more democrat/socialist candidates to continue the fraud.

(2) For elected politicians, to become popular and assure re-election to give them life-time guaranteed jobs and live like Kings.
(3) It was to break up families, promote illegitimate life-styles and encourage crime so that colleges and universities would have business security turning out social engineers and lawyers.
(4) It was also a plot by organized unions, who were losing private sector jobs, to take over government, where jobs and union dues would be secure.
There are hundreds of reasons why governments continue to grow like cancer. The primary reason for this growth is our corrupt mainstream press which fails to seek and publish the TRUTH about any national issue. They would rather cover topics on sports, soap, sex and jokes which get people's attention, than tell them that their taxes are going to increase three-fold!
The best solution for the problem is requiring a job for every able-bodied resident of America and term-limiting all elected political office to not more than 10 years. When everybody is required to work and pay their "FAIR SHARE" in taxes they will feel the heat. And when politicians have limited time to commit mischief the country will be better off.
