Being a member of the Boomer generation who protested just about everything in the late 60's and early 70's, I have been watching the Tea Parties with interest.  I wonder how long it will be before all of the taxpayers in the country revolt and refuse to work and pay taxes.  After all, most of our taxes are going to pay for a group of people who contribute nothing to this country but crime, murder and fostering generations of "you owe me" children.  On the opposite end, we have presidents, officials and senators who break the law whenever they feel, spend their salaries on things that the average taxpayer will never have.  Now, we have a President who went to Harvard, spends is time choosing which private school his daughters should attend, and choosing the proper pet.  Meanwhile, people who have worked all their lives and paid taxes are losing their homes, their retirement income and their faith in this country.  What has happened to the values that used to keep this country strong?  Girls pose naked for their teenage boyfriends, teen sex is rampant in all levels of society, women have one baby after another without the benefit of marriage, knowing that neither they nor the father will be able to give that child a proper home, meals, education or moral values.  This is such a repeat of what happened to the great civilizations of Rome and France.  Maybe people have forgotten how Marie Antoinette responded when she was told that there was no bread to feed the people.  She said, "let them eat cake."  I hate to see what used to a great country fall into disrepair.  But I hope that someone takes the reins and tells the taxpayers to stop paying taxes until we get heard!!!  Hey, government, you can't fly fancy airplanes or go to great resorts or live in million dollar mansions or send your kids to fancy private schools if we don't foot the bill.  So, maybe you better start listening to the people who are paying your salary and stop giving money to the people who have no intention of ever contributing anything!!!
