Tea Partiers realize that we have terrible problems. They know that we have borrowed too much money but they don't know why.
They believe what the RepubliCONs have been telling them, that it's all because of liberals, or socialists. That it's because of Social Security (old age insurance) or Medicare.
The fact is that if our government stopped Corporations from taking our tax dollars there would be plenty of money for all our social programs.
For profit "health care companies" are the reason Medicare is in trouble. How much of our Medicare tax dollars end up as profit for these companies? Oh, that's right, the CEO's deserve 100 million dollars in compansation, because, because, um, because they say so!
Tea Partiers think that the budget deficit swelled under President Obama because he is "a socialist, marxist, leftist, communist, etc.". The actual reason is that he put the two unnecessary, un-funded wars ON BUDGET! No more pretending we weren't borrowing and spending the money. Put it on budget and presto-chango we have a 1 1/2 trillion dollar deficit.
You're right TeaPartiers we have serious problems, but PSSST, you're on the wrong side.
So the so called stimulus and the bail out of corporations, which Tea party was against, put them on the wrong side?
The Tea party was created because Americans want to cut the budget drastically. Not everyone in the Tea Party supported the wars.
I think you need to wake up brother. The Tea parties are trying to fix the problem. I would hope that all Democrats and Republicans would likewise be willing to realize we need to start cutting back spending, even if that means making necessary sacrifices. This isn't a right/left problem since
everyone has been spending. Stop trying to blame one side and ignore the issue on your own.
Stop the Unconstitutional Spending and yes cut defense spending too. Let's stop wasting money we don't have. I don't care if you are right or left. As long as we agree to cut the spending, I'm more than willing to support it. Why do you care about it?
