Default Your debt could be worse

While many here work hard to be responsible and get out of debt. Your government is working hard to destroy you and your childrens futures. It has plundered the shire and convinced us peasants that we are entitled to something that does not exist.

For your children and grandchildrens freedoms and prosperity, you need to make up, get educated and get involved. At the very least, plan for self-provisions in the next ten years, your government will not be able to save you.

I still wonder how much of this could have been avoided if the USA had someone more responsible than George Bush in office for those 8 years. Either that or he had made more intelligent decisions. I still put the blame mostly on him that it is as bad as it is right now for the debt and deficit. It will take many years to reduce or erase the $1T deficit he left the current government with. I still question if the high cost of the wars could have been reduced or avoided and most importantly, the Iraq war really was just about securing the oil, and not about W.M.Ds or about terrorists. Afganistan sure, but not Iraq.

I remember Obama saying that every family had the right to home ownership. Sure, and I have the right for the government to provide everything I request, as well.

With all these rights that everyone is supposed to have, where are the responsibilities, and just as importantly, where is the money?

And if you live in Ohio, your cellphone bill will now include a charge to help pay for free cellphones for welfare recipients.

Check your cell phone bill for charge that funds free cell phones for others
