I would disagree, the federal government can continue to inflate their debt bubble, as they are in fact doing, to increase the size of paychecks "employees" take home. We are merely transferring the debt bubble from the private to the public sector. Is Washington going to end the "tax cuts" just in time for the 2012 election? Is Washington "really" go to cut spending and drive up unemployment, just in time for the 2012 election? How do you tell when a politician is lying? Their lips are moving.

As we can see by the BLS statistics, Washington has already cast aside millions of Americans. If you have no money, how much can you impact American politics, where public perception can be twisted, if you have enough cash. We American's are extremely easy to manipulate, just ask the advertising industry. The tail wags the dog, and the dog can't get enough of it.

Now Washington does provide the "forgotten" with a few table scraps to keep them complaisant, so little niceties like food stamps will continue, least we form food lines and start to form into an organized and visible body of people. They not only want us out of site, but separated into armies of one.

One jet fighter for the defense industry, table scraps for the poor.
