[QUOTE="BIG_MIKE2005, post: 2122322, member: 3309"] This is what really gets under my skin honestly. They sit & tell us (American citizens) they have to raise taxes to cover all the current programs in place then turn around & give billions away each year to other countries. This makes absolutely no sense to me. Maybe I miss the importance of giving our money away while we are in a really bad economic position. But the simple answer to their budget problem is them. Stop giving away money to countries who hate us, stop sending jobs overseas, stop cutting programs for education/ elderly & other medical applications. Start cutting out multi-million dollar vacations & multi-thousand dollar lunches for congress. There is so much fat to be trimmed in Washington it's flat out sickening & they refuse to admit or acknowledge it. They just expect to keep raising taxes & force us to pay for it while they give up nothing to help save this country. It's far past time for people to start throwing this in their faces every single time they even think about raising taxes. I don't know about you guys but I'm tired of getting taxed out rear while Washington give up nothing. [/QUOTE]
