Robo-Squirrel and our Government! A true match!

Watching our government operate these days will either make you laugh or cry. Sometimes I do both simultaneously! Whether it’s the squandering of $325,000 to build a robotic squirrel or another one billion to deploy additional missile interceptors in a knee-jerk response to North Korea’s nuclear efforts, you just can’t help but feel sorry for the American taxpayer. After all, they’re the ones footing the bill for such foolishness.

The sad truth is that almost half the population pays no income tax (they’re all on entitlements) and fairly soon the nation’s corporations will be plundered into bankruptcy. That will leave just a small core of the working middle class left to foot the bills for everything! Watch for new and ever more clever ways to tax people without always calling it a tax, i.e. a surcharge on ammunition to the tune of 50% of its cost! WTF?

At some point, this country will grind to a halt when all the money gobbled up by this left leaning monster we call Capitol Hill. Then, in four more years, the Democrats will all scamper back under the carpet (or wherever it is they hide), while the newly elected Republican majority in both the House and Senate attempt to put everything back together. That’s how its gone before and that’s how it will go again.
