Government is a puppet to the military and corporations.
Government needs to control those two entities, not serve them.

if you think your getting your hands on uncle sams oreos your sadly mistaken, it took him along time to condition the people to so easily fork over 1/3 of their income......unless your rich of-course, then you get the greasy wheel break.
shit will never change as long as we are voting this broken 2 party system that just trades out one pretentious douche-bag mouthpiece for another every 4 years that half the people hate. the only difference is you suckers who believe any one man can fix this cl More..

@fern420 Using the cookie chart one can discern that for each dollar the government takes from us, 2.5 cents goes to the areas other than military spending. Personally I want to see more of my money go to ensuring our infrastructure like those shown.
Our tax dollar spent on the military/industrial complex, when compared to Russia (1.75 cents) and China (1.25 cents) just doesn't make sense! It just doesn't add up! Pardon the pun.

Made simple. How don't American's understand this, shouldn't they be asking their goverment to redistribute a few Oreos? (Oreos are made in China now right?)
Though I guess using Oreos to represent their money is accurate, as its China's money theyre spending.

Finally, a presentation the average American (who went to those same under-funded schools that resulted in their lack of discernment skills) can understand (maybe).

I find it funny that Osama said out loud that one of his main goals was to wreck the U.S. economy, and it seems to be working, no?
