In the last few weeks there has been a miraculous occurrence; democrats and republicans alike have come together in an attempt to save the average tax paying citizen from certain doom. The occurrence I speak of is a 175 billion dollar stimulus package that will no doubt sail through congress in an attempt to help as many as 117 million families in the form of a ‘tax rebate’. This rebate is very similar to a cash advance you might get from your local payday loan store. Interest on this loan will automatically be taken from every paycheck from now on, and you will never, ever pay off the loan. Wake up Americans, take care of yourselves, and stop letting politicians fool you into thinking that they are doing you a favor by loaning you your own money.

"It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force."
