Oh sure....tax breaks? Ok, I'm a small business owner, and I have 2 kids....after paying all year and now Washington telling me I get extra?.....sure a $300.00 refund? My brother who makes 6 figures......a couple grand. Tax breaks for the little guy? I think not!!! I would love to kick their butt's right about now! More of being over taxed, NO CRAP! Can we say IMPEACH!  Mad, you bet I'm mad. The IRS chooses the little guy to pick on, they can eat my &#@*!

You need to take matters in your hands now, I can see that more clearly with each passing day. Our government has got to cut-off! All these warm fuzzies are just a bunch of bull crap that as always they feed us so they can keep us in the dark......you what they say about mushrooms! That is what honest Americans have become to our government...mushrooms!

Where is my tax credit for small business? Where is my tax credit for dependents? Where is that tax incentive what ever? I'll tell you where it is, it's in the POCKET OF THE MORTGAGE COMPANIES AND BANKS THAT GOT BAILED OUT!

It's not the protester's don't know what they are talking about, as some networks tried to make it seem. It's not about a African American President, nor a big anti-Obama thing......it's a tax thing, a money thing, a wasted spending thing. It crosses political lines and parties, it comes into our lives and wallet's. Our government has over spent (and still is) for many years now. It's NOT just because Obama is in office, it's because the tea kettle has finally boiled over! People can only take so much until......you come to a boil!

 We have had stupid and outlandish spending now for a very long time. For instance, our military spending...way over spending. I used to date a Navy guy, and he and others on the ship would joke that the part they needed, they could get from Radio-Shack for a few bucks, but instead had to order it through the government for hundred's of dollars. We are not as dumb as DC would like to think. They are called very over priced military contracts, in which those companies make nice campaign contributions and other palm greasing. Those companies don't give a big discount because they get the contract...oh to the contrary, they can charge outrageous prices for a piece of wire. Pig poop research also ranked among the more humorous ones I've heard, that was millions.

We can't afford to let big companies like AIG and GM fall? Why the heck not? No, your reason makes no sense. In the corporate world it happens all the time, always has, always will. For every big company that takes dive, another will pop up in it's place....rest assured. If you make horrible business decisions and your company tanks, then IT IS YOUR FAULT, NOT THE TAX PAYERS FAULT. So just HOW did these bail-outs help the common person? You now who I'm talking about, your neighbor who lost his home. Heck, your neighborhood that is now littered with foreclosure signs. NO, the mortgage bail-outs DID NOT TRICKLE DOWN. That is smoke and mirrors or politics as usual. Fair trade? Don't kid yourself. Other countries will only allow us to export a certain amount to their country, while they are allowed to export a whole lot more to us...a whole LOT more. I say fair trade should be just that, fair trade. If you want to export 100 cars to us, than you have to import 100 from us.....what a concept!

 Here's the part where I end up like Jimmy Hoffa. One of the biggest reasons our jobs are going over seas and across the border? The Unions have priced themselves out of a job. NO, if you sweep the floor you do not deserve $20.00 bucks a hour, sorry. You can't very well whine and complain because there is someone else willing to do it for $10.00. BMW went to South Carolina for just that reason, no unions. It started out as a good idea, but like with many good intentions it paved the road to you know where. Yes, it's one big huge mess....but with some pulling back, cleaning up and the general public to stop being sheeps (the sheep will follow) it can be fixed, but DC is going to have to get real.

I always say..."and the sheep will follow"....and it seems even if it's off a cliff! I think the American people (well some of us) don't play the sheep game. Second, we don't like to follow! When it comes to your tax dollar, you need to keep every dime you can keep! Yes, of course I know that we have to keep up roads, and schools etc etc...but the stupid crap like pig poop research needs to go!  We are facing such tuff times right now it would seem to me that the bone heads in DC wold cut those "fat" programs off! Sadly, this is not the case.

It's not a party issue, it's just a issue. With more and more people loosing their homes and jobs...well, let me just add NOT the big companies that bailed out, they have their jobs...some how. It was the people underneath them that got canned. Their is money.....in the fat programs that we don't really need. We aren't talking cancer research here, were talking cow reproduction .....which they have done on their own for centuries now....but we need to spend millions to figure it out.

Enough is enough! Stop spending our money on stupid crap and put it to better use in our schools and our communities, NOT the big huge screwed up companies! No, they did not need a bail out. Why? because for every one company that falls, this is a number two company right behind it to take it's spot. One falls another goes in. It's simple and it has been the way in business for ever. Do they really think a company is big too fail? Come on, we aren't that stupid.
