Hawt Ireland to impose 90% tax on banker bonuses

Everyone wants to cut spending, but when it comes down to it no one really wants to cut spending.

Good luck convincing farmers to go without agricultural subsidies, or poor people to go without welfare or whatever other fat you would trim.

So you might as well toss that argument into the sh*tter.

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed.

Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food. But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue.

Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table...everywhere.

Then some of the birds turned mean: They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.

And others birds were boisterous and loud: They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn't even sit on my own back porch anymore.

I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone.

I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio.

Soon, the back yard was like it used to be......quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.
 
god forbid we do something for own citizens

this is a neverending government controlled democrat spending spree.


god forbid you let the citizens take care of each other w/o the expense of the government bureaucracy.

You'd rather the government hijack 'these people' for 'those people' so the government can say 'lookit what I did for you.'

I had dog on an indian reservation when I was a kid. I don't remember it being very good... There a reason humans made them pets, because they aren't good for much else.
