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. But to pamper ourselves at lavish conferences, give bonuses to IRS executives who harass conservatives, and pay
for the president's vacations, we must have more. More - always more.
Government programs rarely deliver what we promised, cost more than we said,
you whine? So what? You better think
carefully before you complain about how we do things. 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. But since that little jerk Snowden has let the cat out of the
bag, we want you to know we do it only for your protection. Read more for free...
