Well, I can agree with you part way. Washington is not listening to the people. Near as I can tell, the Independent voters behind all this are upset about deficits. Yeah, yeah, that's an oversimplification. But that's kind of what it boils down to, isn't it?
I can get behind that. Pelosi and Reid- guilty as anyone I suppose. But really, look what's happened over the last decade. It's not like the other side was anything but worse.
It kind of sucks. Republicans gain power and they get to have their useless wars and get to fuck the rest of us while they let Wall Street make trillions. Democrats come in and want to give everyone Health Care. Then all of a sudden everyone says "how we gonna pay for it?"
So we have all the money in the world when it's for Halliburton but can't afford to give people benefits that virtually every major country on earth has.
