Some had faith in the tea party to put washington on a diet. Some hoped and prayed for default. Some hoped and prayed for more spending so they can sleep at night knowing government will send their checks in the morning. Some just played political games with your lives and future programs in order to make sure the special interests and voting blocks were happy. Government again using smoke and mirrors and fear on actual cuts and spending. While republican leadership and democrats worked deals in backrooms America was sold down the river and blame was put on a "new commission group" to deal with the mess congress and this president created.

A long time ago people found that with power in government you can be the master of money, people and knowledge. People with money and or large sums of it via stealing and or corruption will always abuse it against those they steal it from. The Founding Fathers knew a government can't control the economy without controlling people. And they knew when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose. From theats to old people in social security and to the debt and interest to the federal reserve we use the coercion and fear to give more spending power to the government.

I am a slave to this system and every generation after will continue to be a slave thinking this is how it is, that it can never be changed or it's to big to fail. The media will proudly tell you this lie for their lives and media credit comes from more government. This is what those in power want you to think. I want the liberty to break this chain but instead people vote for more chains with the illusion that it will some how find balance and fairness in giving more power to washington.

NO party will bring you INDIVIDUAL liberty. Socialism nor Capitalism will bring about individual economic liberty while government is powerful enough to control taxes, uncontrolled spending, regulations and promotes dependancy. If you vote for something in return because your a human being and or looking to get by in life on others success washington is the place for you. If you like to tell others how to live, what they can do with their lives, looking to control decide what is best for others washington is for you. If you think stealing other peoples hard work and taking credit for it is the American way and or a right of yours because you live here Washington is for you. If you think people are stupid and can't run their own lives, think spending large amounts of money to change the world and or our country via lies and propoganda washington is for you. If you think the few in washington can provide a safe and confortable life for you as long as the rich and poor are happy to bribe and lobby washington then you will always find no problem in this system.
If you take bribes, think your a moral leader and an example of goodness and viture and will punish those via force and jail for your verison of justice Washington is for you. If you pretend to be for peace and yet look for new ways to support a system built on stealing and killing others in other countires because your religion is the only choice washington is for you. Where food and clothing, education and healthcare are free at the cost of depending on more government and education system that teaches more government as a way of life.

The tea party is full of people like I listed above it has been over run by the typical people found in the republican party with a few acceptions. The republican party, the democrat party and any other so called party who promotes the ideas of control over the masses with the power of government. With the debt ceiling debate I have further convinced myself we the people have no party. We have tried hard over the years to change the parties into something the people can understand and that follows limited government but instead we get more of it. America is full of people who with their own collective ideas via media and other forms of propoganda have decided to give up their freedom, individual choices for the comfort in knowing government will fix and provide the wealth and for the cost of living. While your waiting for the American dream the government will provide retirement, welfare, food and clothing from those who stopped dreaming and are dependant on themselves. The system where the rich are capitalist and the poor are socialist serves nobody but those who have the power to control the money supply. The rich have found a way with the FED and our governmnet to socialise the loss when they should failed. Those ok with this thinking belive the common good to protect peoples bad choices and "401K" wall street investiments out way the american tax payer and debt. This is the problem of government controlling the market, the failures and who fails and who gets the bailouts. It's criminal the core and legal because the government makes it happen.

I have decided I want the option and the freedom to never be apart of the system built with ever dollar out of my paycheck striping me of my purchasing power. This system supports the lairs, the thieves and free loaders while I am stuck working my ass off 40 hours a week just to get by. While prices go up, wars continue with no end and people left with hope that some how the next election things will change in washington!

My own economic and moral choices are my own and I don't need my government with 14 trillion in debt decide tommorrow taxes will be 90%, 100% of my paycheck. I don't want a president and or congress to support more wars, more spending and for them to tell me my labor is now the property of the government. What has government given us?
Did the 14 trillion in debt just show up one day and became a problem? Wasn't this the result of the democrat and republican party way of protecting you and making sure those bailouts and spending make your lives "richer"? Has the government got us into 3 wars, bailed out other world banks, all in the name of FREEDOM and security? Who's freedom who's security, the rich bastards and criminals who gave us this mess? This is careless view of the peoples money and our lives is the result of big government and I would suggest you stop giving them the power to do the things not authorized in the constitution and start rethinking the things you need to do to survive the default that is COMING!!

This has got to be the very best post I've ever seen on this forum. Thank you for taking the time to voice what I feel but am too lazy to type. That's what got us here in the first place...the laziness of people to govern themselves. Much better and easier to pay someone to do that. This is what our Founding Fathers fought the British over, or doesn't anyone see the correlation?
