" 2. Only in America .... Could the government collect more tax dollars from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7 Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money. " And now the people are strapped with a new tax); Obamacare..

But they won't even allow us to require ID to prove you're an American citizen or count how many times you vote. This isn't just corruption. This is evil at work.

Only in America do they pass Bills into law, that they didn't even read.

Do they not understand what generous, means, 86%. I'll bet the illegals understand quite well, each month.

"1. Only in America .... Could the rich people - who pay 86% of all income taxes - be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any income taxes at all." Our trolls know this very well. But they'll lie and deny it. As is their nature.<br

10. Only in America .... Could politicians talk about the greed of the

rich at a $35,000.00 a plate campaign fund-raising event.

9. Only in America .... Could people claim that the government still

discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President,

a black Attorney General and roughly 39% of the federal workforce is

black while only 14% of the population is black. 45+% of all federal

entitlements goes to black Americans 3X the rate that go to whites, 5X

the rate that go to Hispanics!

8. Only in America .... Could they have had the two people most

responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury

Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means

Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher

taxes.

7. Only in America .... Can they have terrorists kill people in the name

of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims

might be harmed by the backlash.

6. Only in America .... Would they make people who want to legally

become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay

tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss

letting anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically'

become American citizens.

5. Only in America .... Could the people who believe in balancing the

budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as

extremists.

4. Only in America .... Could you need to present a driver's license to

cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.

3. Only in America .... Could people demand the government investigate

whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas

went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. Oil company

(Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes

(Nike).

2. Only in America .... Could the government collect more tax dollars

from the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a

Trillion dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7

Million PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough

money.

1. Only in America .... Could the rich people - who pay 86% of all

income taxes - be accused of not paying their fair share by people who

don't pay any income taxes at all.

If you put the federal government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in

five years there would be a shortage of sand.

(Nobel prize-winning economist Milton Friedman [1912-2006])

The United States is a joke for the whole world. Not just Canada. This

great country of ours, as we know it, is disappearing ... So wake up

America!
