Submit yoru own editorials hereDon't let Beltway carrots tempt you
Tell me, tell me true, what is the carrot at the end of the stick for the politicians in Washington?
Day after day we’re bombarded with new bills that have to be passed right now! We can’t wait one minute to read it, see if we can afford it, will it really improve anything or just make it 10 times worse? Since day one, these bills seem to have appeared out of nowhere, thousands of pages long with no input from the other side or the public in general.
The stimulus bill was supposed to cure the recession, but it’s worse. Cap and trade is supposed to make us love green energy and force it down our throats, even if the technology hasn’t caught up yet, but we can pay for it while it breaks the backs of industry and you with sky high energy costs. Make sure you stock up on woolies because you’ll need them. Our high costs will go through the roof!
The mere thought of them messing with our health care scares me to death. They want to tax your health benefits. This will break the backs of many families who are hanging on by a thread. Tax on heath insurance or food? This will put more people on food stamps, more government in our life and more taxes to cover the food stamps. More, more, more! Nothing is free. You’ll pay through the nose either way.
