Is it their intent to drive the standard of living in this county downward until it equals that of a third world country? Why did they exempt 85% of the carbon tax penalty's for industry, this puts almost the entire burden on the back of working families. This is not the same country that I grew up where people were free start a new business and become successful. Now government at all levels do their best to drive you out of business by adding fees and raising taxes on a yearly basis.
When will government take a real look and start cutting some of the unnecessary costs such as multimillion dollar contracts to campaign supporters. These type of actions do nothing to promote the stability and growth of this nation and the citizens that live within it borders.
“How can anyone with a conscience...” You hit the nail on the head. They don’t have a conscience. This is all about power over the American people. The dimrats ran this country through the house of reps for 40 years. They lost the house due to Newt Gingrich in 94 and just really got it back in 06. I think that this time, they are going for broke to make sure they never lose the house again. Every liberal wacko idea they have ever had is being implemented becuase they have a senate and a phony president that agrees with them. They see this as a unique opportunity in time to shove through huge power grabs all at once. That is why they are running at hyper speed to get all this stuff done. Take over key industries, take over banks, take over the medical industry, take over the census, cap and tax, card check and who knows what else they have in store for us. And since the media has been paid off, there will be no objective reporting of what they are up to. I am afraid that by they time we figure out what thay have done, it will be so entrenched that it would be next to impossible to get rid of. What country did I wake up in this morning?
