We campaigned and spent millions and millions of dollars for ads that weren’t worth a dime just to get back in power. The Plantation party voted for “freebies” and the Republican Party voted for “life.” We are back where we were before the election – the country is split. So where do we go from here – 47% want to keep getting the “freebies” and the other half wants to reign in the spending. The 47 percenters voted to continue to free load – so what do we do?
We have two choices: First, just let us go over the cliff and see who survives. Everything is in such a mess – we have got to start over and take our lumps. Or, the two parties can compromise: we can drop all of the personal and business tax deductions, make the welfare recipients pay at least $1.00 in taxes (so everyone will be on the tax rolls), do not give any foreign country ANY money until we have a balanced budget, and reduce the government rolls by attrition.
