I am really just bitching right now. I just did my taxes I feel like like Philadelphia city tax is to high considering my water main needs replaced and I have to pay for it. Nj it is covered. Nebraska covered and they dont have this city tax. Now the part about the goverment overspending. How cost effective is creating new jobs that dont produce anything. I keep hearing we created 130,000 new jobs this month. The thing about is these jobs dont help our GDP. That is where we make or money other wise we are just robbing the tax payer. This is my theory about our goverment. IRS takes our money they give it to congress use it for a year then they give a refund make you feel better. Then the treasury department says we need more money in circulation. Give the tax payer a break quit printing up more money. I could say alot more I am running out of characters though. Voice your oppion. I would like to hear someone who thinks there not out of control. Vote for a pay as you go congress.

hell yes! but as long as politicians use the treasury to buy votes the deficit will never be fixed. there is no accountability to control spending when you can just legislate a new debt limit and print more money, rather than make the hard decisions that may not be popular

Yes... It is out of control. However, if you are the fortunate people and corporations who are profiting from the occupation (did they say war) then they would argue that it is not out of control.
Don't forget to mention the $2 Billion per week (congressional estimate) that we are spending to sustain the contractors and military personnel in the Middle East.
That's mostly not being paid by taxes right now, but you will pay for it in higher taxes later and/or inflation.

Yes, it is most definately out of control. We need to cut Welfare and all these socialist give-away programs.
