So in times like these we're led to believe by our local, state and nationally elected officials we have only two choices - pay more and/or accept less. Maybe VOIICE will remind us and themof a third ....
So, at what point do the people of Massachusetts (and the U.S. of A) decide that they're tired of being prostitutes for our elected officials/pimps? When do we stop doing our tricks and then handing over all of our very hard-earned money, only to keep on being used and abused (we don't even get good drugs..) Is it a matter of just being so overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of corruption and arrogance that we are paralyzed? When we don't speak up or act, we get to pay for the 2,000 plus new state employees hired by the Patrick administration. We get to pay for out of control and unnecessary growth in entitlement programs. We get politicians stealing our money to support obscene union contracts while we live with pay freezes, pay cuts, and layoffs. And if we finally get a government controlled health care system, we get to "enjoy" full-blown socialism!
Slap yourselves out of it! Join VOIICE, support good opposition candidates, write and call your representatives, show up at tea parties, exercise the fine American tradition of protest!j
The Cap is right. The bastards are all on the take. We need a slate dedicated to two year term limits for everyone Fed, State and local. Eliminate professional politicians and Pensions beyond their two year vestment. Legislation can change legislation, it is that simple. Show me such candidates I will vote for them. The current incumbents have screwed it up so bad no one can trust anyone running for office. That is a problem. One solution to that may be for everyone to totally ignore government all together. Create a new economy within smaller communities. Render to Caesar what belongs to Caesar. Take no government funds, and be free.
