Yeap, it's a pathetic state of government when they can't even get their contractors to pay their dues.
The income tax and corporate tax myth are broken to hell, and we all know it. We need a different business model for funding our government that can't be tinkered or bought like the system we have now.
Our economy is suffering from the weight of income tax, and we're getting bashed in foreign markets by our outrageously unfair export tax scheme. This hurts us everwhere from the gas pump to the job market, and we must fight back if we hope to keep our quality of life.
To quote Megadeth: THE SYSTEM HAS FAILED
We need a value-added tax (good), a flat tax (better), or a fair tax (best), anything but the crap we have now! Americans are innovators, so it's time to do that and stop being bossed around by partisans.
It would also be helpful if we stopped spending money on stupid shit that we don't need, that doesn't work and that ultimately harms the country but enriches the tiny minority of profiteers that sold it to our government in the first place.
The War in Iraq is a fine example.
I've always said, its not how much money you spend, its what you are getting for it. If I spend $10 on a filet mignon in a nice restaurant, I'm getting a hell of a deal. But if I spend that same $10 on a burger at McDogshit's, I got ripped off.
Right now, we are spending for a Cadillac and getting a Yugo.
