Go read the rest of Wirecutter's rant at Knuckledraggin my life away. He makes a lot of very good points. obama asks, no demands, that we get back on a path that will pay down our debt. This is the same asshole that forced obamacare on us. The single biggest piece of economy killing, job killing legislation ever devised. The same asshole that has increased our debt by 5 TRILLION DOLLARS in half a term as president. The very same asshole that wants to tax the very businesses that employ millions of hard working Americans.
obama would like for you to believe that the Republicans are some how responsible for the mess we are in. That's great, it just isn't true. Before the 2010 elections, the democrats controlled the purse strings for about four years. And let's also remember that democrats controlled the house, the senate and the presidency for the first two years of obama's term.
While all of us out here in the real world have had to tighten our belts, washington has remained on a massive spending spree. They have no regard for the effects their actions have on us, or that our children's children will be paying the price or their recklessness for many years to come.
Keep this in mind when obama talks about Republicans starving Grandma and denying sick children needed care, if entitlement spending isn't brought under control NOW, there will be no money for entitlements for ANYONE in the very near future. We can't continue down this path and obama has no plan except to tax us further and play stupid accounting shadow games. Smoke and mirrors will not fix our economy...

"We have to live within our means, reduce our deficit and get back on a path that will allow us to pay down our debt," the president said in a speech at George Washington University a few blocks from the White House. - barrack hussein obama
Live within our means? What in the FUCK do you know about living within my means? Any means?
Motherfucker, my bills are constantly one month behind and one jump ahead of a final notice. I shop for clothes at a thrift shop. I buy my tires at a used tire shop. I grow food in my backyard and not because I enjoy doing it. I keep the fish I catch to eat and you have no idea how much that hurts me - I can no longer afford to practice catch and release. I clip coupons. My heat in the house is non-existent (thank God I live in a somewhat temperate climate) and I don't even consider AC until it's above 90 degrees inside. Meat on the weekends is a fucking luxury as is dinner most nights, and yes I have had popcorn for dinner, you bastard. My TV service was cancelled by me months ago and I dearly miss it at times. Coyote hunting? Yeah right. Not so far this year.
And I make 23 bucks a fucking hour here in in Kalifornia. Seriously.
Obama, one week of your lifestyle would give me and my garden-sharing neighbors a life of luxury for a fucking year...
