OK, now they are trying to implement a health care plan, this after the stimulus  package and trying to tax us on our carbon footprint so special ones can make millions for nothing. How about a real energy policy?

It always comes down to who is going to pay for this, and any of the boondoggles they will think of next. The first thing they need to do is eliminate the IRS and its Gestapo tactics and implement the Fair Tax program so that everybody will pay taxes not just us in the middle class.

Who do you think is going to pay? We are. Not the rich, not the poor. At least the Fair Tax would even the playing field to everyone. The rich, the poor and we would all pay the same amount of tax. What an idea.

I just don’t hear anyone in office trying to get this enacted. Where are our representatives and are they representing our interests or just lining their own pocket books? Vote them out and get new people in office that will respect the will of the citizens.  Let’s get lower taxes and less government in our lives, not more of the same. Write your elected officials today and tell them. I do.
