Default If the current congress can find another $100 billion

to help keep the unemployed...gainfully unemployed...the same creativity can be used to finance the Countries Wars....just as they have always done to date.

When all gets said and done...spending is spending...and we are doing yeoman's duty in that regard in the current administration.

Why put such an emphasis on the paltry $30 billion and call it a War Tax....do the dolts in Washington figure we are more amenable to a "war tax" nomenclature than let's say....an "unemployment tax"?

Accounting 101....the source of funds.... revenue....from whence comes the money....does it not all come from the same source? You know the same source that is already inadequate to FUND ALL THE OTHER CURRENT PROGRAMS on the table.

If only we the people could have the same opportunity to spend freely, and completely ignore whether we have the resources to meet the commitment...and completely ignore whether there is enough money to get the next want satisfied. How nice that would be? Yes if it is a stupid concept for us....why is Washington immune from the same disciplines and controls.

Extending unemployment accomplishes two goals. One it buys votes and two it keeps the unemployed.....unemployed. Why go to work when uncle sammie will continue to pay for you to stay home?

Why end the war.....any war....when uncle sammie can just keep printing money and commiting our most precious...irreplaceable commodity...our Americans who serve and protect.

Politicians making decisions for the benefit of politicians.....NO MATTER THE PARTY.

btk

PS maybe uncle sammie should consider some kind of Christmas bonus tax for the unemployed.... to keep them whole....happy ....and voting
