This money is what the government is using right now to bail out our financial companies and all the other things that they need the money for. They are using it to fund the war that is going on right now. These extractions have been going on since our government started taking taxes out of our pay. You would think that since we pay the government to do our bidding that they would listen to us about things, but as you can see they don't.

Our taxes go to repair our roads, build bridges, and to pay for our city and local governments. Do you really think that your local government is there for you? No, I don't either. They will talk big before we put them into office, and then they seem to forget who put them in that office. They want all this money from us to finance their games, but when we ask for more money to live on they might give us only .25 cents an hour more in our pay. Then they will tell us that we will be getting this amount every year until we get to a certain amount of pay. They tell us that we can't be giving anymore than that.

When our government officials do something wrong, like they did a couple of years ago when they bankrupted their own bank, these men only got a slap on the hand, so to speak. If we did this, we would be before a judge and jury and then put in the jail.

I don't think that our government should have this much power over our money. All of these people that we have put in these offices should be made to answer to us instead of only one person. We should have a bigger say as to where our money is going instead of this one that thinks he knows what is better for this country. As you can see, he hasn't got a clue. Of course if we had any sense, we would have gotten him out sooner. We have given him every chance to redeem himself, and all he done is made things worse.
