Jack Kelly, Wednesday, 19 June 2013

Hello. We're from the government. You think we're here to help you? Ha-ha, very funny.  We're here to take lots of your money -- about twice as much as we took in 1985 -- and to boss you around. We say you can't build on your own property without our permission. You must buy health insurance if we tell you to.  Federal spending has risen 23 percent since the recession began, median household income has fallen. We're richer. You're poorer.

Each day we collect 1.7 billion electronic records on you and other Americans. We could be reading your emails, monitoring your telephone calls and tracking your credit card purchases.  We didn't want you to find out about this.
