A nice vacation in the US, a US made car, US made clothes?

Which is exactly what the people the Government employ spend their money on.

Maybe Robbie is like many Americans and their anti taxes stand comes from pre War of Independence. When much of the taxes went to Great Britain.In 2012 it goes to Washington and from there to here.



To keep people working, support the system around you.

Do some just want all that stopped so they can buy more clothes, cars and holidays?

And stop others who benefit from the spending doing the same. They might even stop buying porn memberships.

Yes, examine where the spending is done, yes cut where you can. But that cut will take money out of another persons pocket and he might be buying porn online.

It's 2012 not 1773.
