I was in a restaurant over the weekend that had copies of newspaper front pages from the past. Never mind the headline in this photo from the 1967 edition of The Los Angeles Times. Look at the column on the left. A $5.154 a billion record budget?
I sat through 8 years of co-workers bashing President Bush all day long over things like spending, yet in 50 days alone this new administration as doubled his spending and is working on tripling and quadrupling it.
When last calculated, that's over $23,000 of new tax per tax payer! Are you OK with this? When will you say enough is enough?
According to the Small Business Administration, 99.7 of all jobs being created are done by small businesses. Yet, less than 1 percent of this spending bill (aka "The Stimulus Bill") is earmarked for small business.
We're all going about our business as if everything will be OK. We're planning making movies, planning families, planning weddings, planning on buying houses, planning on buying cars, all based on false assumptions that everything will be OK. It won't be unless we all kick everyone out of congress and start over with people that respect our right to keep what we earn and quit bailing out everyone that's been irresponsible.
