Arf was obviously educated in government schools. Listen up Arf! All money earned by individual Americans belongs to them, not the government. Our Founding Fathers must be spinning in their graves when they see how politicians have used the treasury of America to redistribute wealth to people like Arf to buy their votes. If we are going to have a federal tax system, then all Americans should pay the same percentage rate. The fairest way to raise money for the government is through a retail sales tax. That would eliminate the hated IRS, and those who buy the most would pay the most. In other words, if Arf buys a Kia for $25,000 and I buy a Corvette for $54,000, I would pay more tax to the government because my car costs more. Got it Arf?
Concerning the bailout. We should not be bailing out either the banks who made these "Ninja Loans", nor those who took them out. To do so is pure socialism! Of course, under-achievers like Arf never see themselves attaining wealth, because they are too busy playing video games. Therefore, he thinks taking money from those who have gone to medical school, or perhaps started their own small business, and giving it to sloths like him is just dandy. This bailout and the election of Obama will prove to be the downfall of this republic and plunge us into the failing European model of socialism.
Where will you get your money Arf after you have killed the goose that was laying the golden eggs? Jobs in the private sector will plummet under Obama and the government will be left to employ the masses. No one will want to go to medical school to earn the same wage as Arf who will be at home picking his nose and living on government allowances complete with free medical benefits (if only you could find a doctor to see).
Unfortunately, Arf and his buddies are the majority in America now. I encourage everyone who has a job and a brain to begin to liquidate everything you can to get out of debt and into a solid cash situation with at least 6 months of living expenses - you are going to need it. Then concentrate on your survival plan going forward. As for myself, I am moving to Thailand where the U.S. dollar goes a long way and the cost of living is cheap. The people are terrific and so is the weather. I will watch from the beach with interest as Arf and his buddies run this country into the ground and attacks from foreign despots grows because guys like Arf are to cowardly to join the military and protect the USA. Adios MF's!
