What the hell is wrong with the people running this country? I mean, really. How on EARTH is it even fair, possible, or fiscally responsible to be giving tax refunds to people who don't even earn enough to PAY taxes? Why should they be getting money for doing nothing? Is this going to be another welfare program? Why should MY tax money go to people who don't pay taxes at all? And if they're going to do that, why SHOULD I be compelled to even pay my taxes?

That being said, how on earth are we going to make things right since we cannot depend on our government to do anything but throw money at problems in order to make them go away? What can we as average citizens do to help out the morons who have spent how many years with the heads stuck up their asses?

Going with Obama's divide, I should think that the people who earn at least $250K have a responsibility to continue to spend money. Those people should be going out to dinner, getting that new computer/phone/game system, splurging on their coffees, their lattes, their magazines...

American is a consumer-based economy; we have to continue to consume. That being said, the people under that divide who don't have enough to spend on frivolous purchases should start saving and paying down their debt. They are the people who need to stop spending money beyong their means. These are the people who bought houses they could barely afford and contributed to the mortgage crisis we are dealing with currently.

Consequently, they're probably the same fuckers who get a tax refund.
