The Abuse of The American Taxpayer

The stimulus package has passed the House and has moved to the Senate for their vote. This package which is over 1000 pages, contains handwritten items, scratched out items and in general looks like something that a 5th grader may have written. Once again, the American Taxpayer is being taken to the cleaners by our so called representatives in Washington.

As average Americans, who work hard for their money, we find it disgusting that our hard earned tax dollars are being given away to corporations, banks and other institutions. Why is it so hard for the Washington Elite to understand that this is not the way to save our country and the economy.

These large corporations have done it to themselves, through their greed and poor business practices. The entire country is living off of borrowed money and borrowed time.

The Federal Government has no business bailing out big business. If anything, they should be bailing out the American People. Stop taking our money and give it back to us, and let us use it to improve our lives and the lives of our children.

Congress doesn't want to listen to what the American People have to say. They consider us too stupid or too uneducated to understand how things work. The truth is, that we understand more then they realize. They don't give a damn about us or this country. They care about themselves and their pocketbook. They live off of us and our blood, sweat and tears.

Instead of giving our tax dollars to large corporations, who have done nothing but abuse taxpayers, invest in small businesses. The mom and pop businesses have always been the backbone of this country. Give the money to the American People to pay down their mortgages, pay down their credit cards. Get the money back into the economy, into the taxpayers hands.

The power brokers in Washington are abusing the American Taypayer and it needs to STOP! We are borrowing this money from foreign governments, such as China, Arab countries, Japan and others. This is disgusting. They are selling us down the river to pay for the mistakes of big business.

Congress needs to cut the fat! Stop the trips on taxpayers dollars. Stop research that doesn't help the American People Now! Invest now in solar, wind and other technology that will create jobs. Start rebuilding our infra structure, the roads and bridges. This will create jobs, just like it did during the Great Depression.

Start listening to the American People. Stop the taxation without representation. Stop selling our country to foreign powers.

We, the American People, need to take back our government. We need to demand that our representative in Congress start working for us and in our best interests, not theirs.
