Our elected officials are charged with the duty of representing their constituents, their American citizen constituents, to work for the welfare and in the best interest of this country, for its national security, and prosperity; however, they are doing anything BUT this.
Our Federal Govt is ignoring the Constitution, is refusing to enforce the Rule of Law, is advocating and working on behalf of illegal who have no respect for this country or our laws, are bringing in and protecting these illegals and thousands of Muslim 'refugees' who are potential terrorists at worst and people who do not share our values and ideals at best, who will work to undermine our government and way of life to impose their own (such as Sharia law).
Our government seeks bring into the United States, to feed, to clothe, to shelter, to fund, to provide jobs for, and to provide benefits for millions of illegals / foreigners when it can not / WILL not address and provide for the needs of it's own American citizens!
Our representatives, our President, are also supposed to be 'good stewards' of our collected tax revenue, to use that money efficiently, effectively, and in the best interest and for the prosperity of this nation and its citizens....but in truth what they are actually doing is beyond irresponsible and amounts in many cases to criminal fiscal mismanagement!
Considering all the needs first listed above, considering veterans not receiving the health care they need, considering our ignored decaying infrastructure, WHILE our politicians insist we are not paying enough in tax revenue - that this is the ONLY way for us to fund and address all of our needs, both they and the media continue to ignore such monumental fraud, waste, abuse, and crime perpetrated by those same politicians.
In the last few years, considering what our politicians COULD have spent our money on and who they could have helped, BOTH parties, instead, spent our precious, hard-earned, easily-taken tax dollars on the following:
$1.2 million that went toward the National Science Foundation for teaching robots how to select outfit combinations and dress children and the elderly
$250 million that trained only 60 Syrian rebels to fight the Islamic State (ISIL) – that’s $4 million per rebel
$65,000+ to study what happens to bugs when someone turns on a light in a dark area
$1 million for a granite sculpture
$20,000 for books as Christmas gifts
$1.5 million in furniture
$26,315 for North Face parkas
$5 million for custom handcrafted stemware
$104.4 million went to families that didn’t qualify for subsidized public housing
$8 million on solar panels - two years later, the facility tore down the never-used panels
$1.67 billion spent to maintain approximately “77,700 unused or underutilized federally owned properties
The Internal Revenue Service spent $17.7 billion in improper tax credits (** See ‘Charlie Rangel’ and ‘Al Sharpton’)
$43 million was spent on a gas station in Afghanistan
$36 million for an empty “unused and obviously unnecessary” 64,000 square-foot building at Camp Leatherneck in the Helmand Province of Afghanistan.
The Gorimor Industrial Park which cost $7.7 million was turned over to the Afghanistan Investment Support Agency to create more than 900 local jobs, but six years later there are only two businesses with 22 individuals that work at the site.
$335 million in wasted power was spent at the Tarakhil Power Plant, “a diesel-fueled power plant constructed outside of Kabul, Afghanistan” that was deemed “severely underutilized” after a federal audit
Last year the President signed 224 bills into law but published 3,554 final rules. This means that for every law passed by Congress, the federal government created 16 new rules. These 3,554 regulations impose significant costs on the American economy. The National Association of Manufacturers calculated the total cost of federal regulations in 2012 to be a staggering $2.028 trillion (11 percent of the U.S. gross domestic product). If our $2 trillion federal regulatory cost were a country, it would be the ninth-largest in the world.
In 2014 the Government Accountability Office found that five federal agencies spent $3.1 billion on government workers who were put on paid administrative leave during 2011 to 2013. Roughly $775 million went to salaries of 57,000 government employees that were not working for a month or longer. “This is money paid from taxpayers who actually work hard to earn their salaries.
This does not include the hundreds of billions of dollars we charitably give out to other nations and groups around the world, to include terrorist organizations and to nations that do not have our best interests in mind.

THIS is not even any where near the complete list but is only a SAMPLING...yet our politicians DEMAND we give them more to insatiably SPEND. Where is the outrage? Where is the accountability? Why do the 'sheep' continue to roll over and allow themselves to be sheared? Why do we not DEMAND that Americans take care of their own before doling out our life-blood and future on the rest of the world, especially to those who only see us as their 'sugar daddy' or 'enemy'?
Government does not NEED any more money. Before any politician insists they need / want to raise taxes, demand they show you how they will end this senseless waste. Tell them to get their money from existing fiscally criminal spending already going on.
Wake up, America...
