saving uncle sam

The super-rich may be hiding 20 Trillion dollars in offshore accounts. I don't think they're using that money for the common good. Some of them may even be domestic enemies of the USA.

 It's important to acknowledge that there are people working to undermine and destroy the USA. Liberals tend to focus on foriegn enemies and often underplay these threats. Conservatives  more commonly focus rhetoric on what they claim are threats to our country and way of life. Liberals rarely if ever point to domestic enemies of the state while conservatives are quick to villify anyone and everyone who hold views different than their own. The right-wing takes this to extremes and even claim that the President of these united states is a socialist. It is time to correct this imbalance. 

An easily identifiable domestic enemy of the state is Grover Norquist who famously stated that he, "I don't want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub".

The villification of government is a poison in the body politic. It must end. Countless patriots have fought and died in many wars to ensure that our government survives. The government of the USA is the collective expression of the citizenry. It was the first modern democracy that inspired and changed the world. Every patriot that died in war, died for our government. A true patriot fights to make our government functional for We The People. A false patriot works to undermine a government designed to be Of, By and For The People. Anyone who works to "drown government in the bathtub" is obviously an enemy of the state.

It is time for good and true patriots to rally around the flag of liberty, identify the domestic enemies of our way of life and save Uncle Sam.

No one really likes to pay taxes. No one really likes to part with their hard earned money knowing that part of those funds will go for things that they don't want to support, but paying taxes is part of our civic responsibility. President Kennedy urged us to "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." Paying one's fair share of taxes is a minimum of what a citizen does for their country. Voodoo economics is a treasonous policy rejected former President George H. Bush and promoted shamelessly by today's Republican Party.

Uncle Sam needs your help. Save Uncle Sam from the domestic enemies who have poisoned the body politic.
