Do you have skin in the game?

Well if you are here reading this I bet you do.

Remember in the campaign when the teleprompter told Obama to say everyone has to have skin in the game? Remember that? (For those you would do not know what that means, it means you have risk and investment in the ’cause’ being it sports, business, or even government. If you have no vested interest then you have no risk, in other words if you pay no taxes then you don’t care how much they are raised.) Well anyway, this was a BS statement because the TOTUS (Teleprompter of the United States) is lying to you. Under Obama about 50% of the people will not have skin in the game, they are in a sense setting on the taxpayer bench and not playing in the game. This has got to stop.

This is Obama and the Democrat’s plan if you have about 50% or more of the tax payers not paying any taxes and receiving refunds up the amount or greater than what they paid in, then not only do the Dem’s have a built in majority in the voter block they will have a voter block with no skin in the game. So the slackers, losers and moochers get their handouts and those that bust their ass making their way in the world get to pay for it … hey leftwing nut job media, yeah I’m talking to you CNN (morons) this is one of the reasons for the TEA Parties, but I said one reason there are a lot of others and I’ll get to those in the future. Now let me be clear and I’ve said this before, but in case you are new here, as I’ve had a surge in traffic in the past few weeks. (Thank you) I believe we need to help those that are truly in need, children, elderly and handicap but those able body slackers you need to go. Now ever time I say that I’m called a racist? Why? Have I ever singled out one group of people over than a collective lazy bum group regardless o race or gender? There are slacker and losers of every walk of life.

Here is the deal; everyone needs to pay taxes no matter how small, every one need to have skin in the game. Even if it’s only a dollar you need to have skin in the game, period. I’m sick of these people at get back more money in taxes than they ever paid in, I’m sick of going to the store and seeing people buy better food than I can afford and pay for it with food stamps, I’m sick of seeing them go outside and get in the Lexus or Hummer and speed away. Many speak of the fair tax; I like this idea and have mentioned it years ago before I ever thought our country to get to the point it is at now. It’s easy, it doesn’t require the IRS and it’s FAIR! If you don’t want to pay any taxes, then don’t buy anything. (Under the fair tax food and medical is not taxed, you can read more about it here at Fair Tax dot org.

If you do not pay taxes then why would you care how it is spent, if you don’t pay taxes then what is to keep you from asking for more and more and more, it’s not your money so why would you care? And that is why the liberals want to have at least 50% of the American people dependant on the government, if you are dependant on the government you have no freedom, you give up your independents, you have to live where they tell you to live, you can’t just do what you want because you might risk loosing your check. I’ve never had my freedom lost; I’ve never had a government check other than a paycheck from military service. My neighbor is NOT my responsibility! Now if my neighbor is being robbed I’ll help, if my neighbor needs help moving something I’ll help, if I need to watch my neighbors house while they are not home I’ll do it, but I’m not going to buy my neighbors food, I’m not going to pay their mortgage, I’m not going to make their car payment, now if my neighbor is a little short one month, I might help them out, but they have to pay it back I’m not giving it to them. It’s not my job to take care of every deadbeat in the country they need to learn how to take care of themselves.
