Decision 2012 - The road to "SSDD" - Vote anyhow!

A friend of mine sent an email joke forward today.  Like you, I have friends who vary in their political beliefs.  Political affiliation or opinion does not determine my friendship with them.  Sometimes I reply with a basic, "LOL" or, I ignore and delete because it's easier.  Sometimes I will 'feedback' to the Sender.  And my friends still remain my friends.    

Here's what I got from my friend:  Tax Return Returned - I was trying to get a jump on doing my taxes this year, however, the IRS sent my Tax Return back!!  I guess it was because of my response to the line, which said:  List All Dependents.  I replied, 12 million illegal immigrants, 3 million crack heads, 42 million people on food stamps, 2 million people in over 243 prisons, and 535 fools in the U.S. House and Senate.  Apparently, this was NOT an acceptable answer.  So I sent it back with a question "Did I forget someone?"  

I enjoyed that politicians were lumped into the joke.  Today I elected to "feed back":

As an Independent, I am rather tired of ALL of the behaviors called "leadership" at any level.  All they do once elected is spend time blocking each other to cancel any repairs or progress for those who elected them. They blame each other instead of apologizing for not being accountable about their behavior or inability to serve their purpose.  I am tired of this election campaign that is no where near over, and began 14 months ahead of Voting Day. 

These political people can raise billions of dollars to run for office.  Each 'winner' can't do any work because they have to start running for office again, right away.  They are elected for their own growth to enter into political life so they can platform into books, speaking and media coverage.  

  

All their raised money for attacking each other could be better used if put towards growing the economy, fixing roads and bridges, lowering the deficit, meaningfully change or refurbish policy, help our vets, create global good will, etc.  They blame each other for problems that existed before, during and after their term instead of paying attention to what is best for SERVING America.What I need is Bi-Partisan FOCUS on getting their WORK DONE without party or lobby, Super Pac, and news media abuse.  

Ability to act with one's own personal intellect is no longer allowed. 

Allegedly these politicians have brains that got them through other aspects of their lives, but cannot act independently once elected.  They are minnows that move as one body no matter how the water ripples.  If one strays, the others consider them bait to protect the rest of the group.

Politicians work to make changes for those that they owe for financially backing them to get elected.

The only unlimited fuel resource in America is:  Political hot air and flatulence polluting the atmosphere.

You want your tax dollar to work for you?  

Do you pay income tax, or, do you get refunds, or do you have social program assistances?  

Or some of each?

You can owe income tax, but pay less because you are careful about deductions to lower your tax bill, and you can be a Social Security recipient at the same time.  

Are you a bad citizen?

Why are you are accused of NOT paying taxes to support your country when you EARN a Tax Refund?  

They count people who get tax refunds into their statistics as if you are the same as those who do use social programs. 

Your taxes are taken from your paycheck to pay into Social Security, you also appear to suck 

the life out of your country when you earn the right to start receiving your checks, get refunds and no longer receive a paycheck. 

Depending on who's mouth is flapping from their political party - you are the problem for not being in their party.  They can't help you if you don't help them. 

  

But I'll still vote anyhow because it's my duty to do so.  :P
