Why does the world work this way. Scratch that, why does OUR free nation work this way? I mean seriously. Our country is set up for the poor or the rich, and noone in between. I'm going through doing my taxes and I have to fork over the government what I consider to be BIG money. I can barely pay my bills as it is and now they are taking over a months rent from me! Seriously, no offense intended, because I know some people who NEED welfare, and thats all well and good for them but there are those that ABUSE the system. People who could have a better job and choose not to because then they wouldnt have free insurance for thier children through the state, these same people manage to not have to pay any taxes and get a huge refund because they have children and are under the tax break mark, they get child care credits, and credits for going to school to get a degree (which they refuse to use), they live off of the money I and millions of other Americans fork over. Money we could use for our own families. What kind of country is this, where I have to help others when I can't even help myself. Don't get me wrong, I'd be the first to give to a charity when I am able, to help feed the homeless, and to help victims of a hurricain. Since I can't do that all the time, I help in other ways, I babysit for free for someone who can't afford child care, I help out friends who are in dire need, even though I myself am in need. Its hard to be forced to give money to a government run by people I don't even BELIEVE in, that just angers me. These people make sure the rich get richer, they use my money to fight a war that I don't support, to send more troops to a place they no longer belong. They use my money to make laws that hurt our children (No Child Left Behind---my ass!). But not to take care of Americans with things like Health Care or Education. And yet come April 15th, I have to write out that check and send it to them. The federal government will let Bush spend it in some obsene way and the state will use it to help people abuse our generousity. What a life we live.
