Just how did you feel when the words promised are hollow? Not good be my guess. I was taught one of a measure of a man was his word. So can that be also said for a society? Another is how they treat others. With compassion or contempt.

There are no free rides, all of us here have benefited to some degree from the tax dollars paid in over the years by others. Some apparent other are so subtle. You drive on public roads, benefit from clean drinking water an educated populace. All of these and many other services we take for granted are for the greater good of our society. They are public because those in the past realized private sector only wanted profits over service. Something we have forgotten now.

So I for one feel that it is pure chicken $hit to go back on ones word for no other reason then to cut taxes for the rich. For they are the very ones who benefited the most from the system setup years ago. They just are too cheap and greedy in wanting others to pay their way.
