Ah, the amorphous "waste." I know, just cut out the waste and we all get a pony.

Try to keep up.

All of those uses of funds sound like good ideas.
There has never been a tax that you havent liked.. especially proposed by left wing kooks to help pad their agenda thereby giving more money to funnel back into Democratic pockets..

crony capitalism at its finest..

Obama is the one who campaigned on all of the "waste" he was going to cut out.. Still waiting for him to go through the budget line by line..

If it was used to pay off debt I'd be ok with this. Sadly he would **** it away on illegals and Islamic whackos he brings into this country.

That is a great point. I think maybe your right, so I think we should send more money to DC. You really have a great argument. In fact I think I will start sending i little bit more to the fed because of your brilliant point. Thanks for showing me the fallacy in my point of view with your great incite to way our tax dollars are spent.
