The tax cutters promised balanced budgets but each of them exploded the debt. They did this on purpose. They needed an excuse to get rid of Social Security and Medicare. If only they could bankrupt the country with trillions of dollars of debt maybe Americans would let them do it. They gave us the debt now we wait to see if Americans let them do what they really want and destroy the middle class. Now they gleefully cut taxes and create trillions of dollars or more debt as republican voters sit back and watch them destroy the things that made us great. Their parents and/or grandparents will have to move in with their children and grandchildren. They will go bankrupt paying their medical bills. They won't be able to move when a job forces a move because Mom and Dad and Grandpa and Grandma will be living with them. They want to destroy the middle class by bankrupting it just as they bankrupted the government with their tax cuts.

Homeless Child Apparently Unaware He Lives In Nanny State NEW YORK—Considering how these days the government in this country coddles its citizens from the cradle to the grave, an 11-year-old boy currently homeless on the streets of New York must be unaware he lives in a nanny state, reports confirmed this week. According to sources, the boy, who is visibly malnourished and has been abused by nearly every adult in his life, apparently hasn’t been told that America has become an entitlement society that gives out free health care, housing, food stamps, and God knows what else to anyone who wants it—regardless of whether they’ve actually worked for it. Why anyone would choose to sleep in an alleyway every night when he could instead be taking advantage of the bloated welfare state in a nation that is quickly on its way to full-scale socialism was reportedly beyond the ability of sources to comprehend. Observers eventually concluded that the homeless, hungry child must be so lazy he isn’t even willing to stand in line for big-government handouts like the rest of this nation’s freeloaders.
