Happy Cost of Government Day
According to Americans for Tax Reform, today is Cost of Government Day. Today the average American worker will have made enough money to cover the cost of taxes and regulations for the year. The rest of the year, we can actually work for ourselves and our families, instead of for the vampire horde that constitutes our federal, state, and local governments.
But don't think Cost of Government Day will always come so soon after the middle of the year. Bush's tax cuts will expire in 2010 unless Congress extends them, which won't happen if Democrats have anything to say about it. Government spending continues to feed on itself, entitlement programs are metastasizing like terminal cancer, and the useless parasitical dolts running the bureaucracy still won't close the border, which will result in a massive explosion of welfare roles when the offspring of illegal aliens realize you can make more by being a victim of capitalism than you can by picking lettuce.

That's the diffrence between a capitalist system and a communist system.
In a capitalist system, you work for your old age, for your child's college fund, or that two week trip to Hawaii.
In a communist system, you work for the government and the "world revolution" to spread communism.
"Progressives" should take a hard look at history before recreating Stalin's "five year plan".

No program is an "entitlement." No one is entitled to the effort of another person. The moonbats always focus on the recipient, never the forgotten man: the taxpayer. Sure I'd love to help someone else, but I wouldn't rob Peter to give to Paul.
