I only repeated your speech back to you, buddy. Keep the lecture for someone else.

I turned my back on Europa long, long ago. I am sorry you don’t understand. No government never “gives back” the money they took (as taxes) from my checks or anyone else’s. It just feels like it when one benefits from a program. Sometimes the money is put to good use; sometimes, more often, it isn’t. The trillions spent here on the War Against Poverty, for example, didn’t come from the poor, who will always be with us because there will always be a bellshaped curve….the Left wants to make it a very narrow spike.

Because when you will be laid off, USA (or government…make up your mind) will be paying you back the money they took from your check.

Not me. Not my position. The MSM. Get it?

I am not compaining about the unemployed, Tatyana. And just becuz the gummint calls it “insurance” does not make it so. It can be called a cabbage instead if you like, but that don’t make it so. It’s still a tax. I paid it my entire working life, never got a ha’penny. So what? It is a tax. Enacted/extended by the Congress, signed by POTUS. Get it? Good.

And the USA pays unemployment ‘benefits’ for twice as long as the Euros do. So be glad you are here instead of Sweden, Tatyana!

Except for a lazy few, terror and hypochondria abound…

A big problem is that these things are not being covered EXCEPT by foreign news sources and blogs.

The Falklands blip, the Taiwan stuff, Iran, India, all of the other countries that are affected by this incompetent President with no history in his head isn’t covered by the domestic legacy drive-by media who spend their time making stuff up about Senator Bunning.

Relax: we don’t live on your money; we live on ours.
