In the interest of keeping you informed, here are some quotes from sitting politicians and former politicians. I think you should be aware and talk about these with everyone you know.
"I cannot undertake to lay my finger
on that article of the Constitution
which granted a right to Congress of expending,
on the objects of benevolence,
the money of their constituents."
: James Madison
(1751-1836), Father of the Constitution for the USA, 4th US President. Spoken in 1792, in disapproval of Congress appropriating $15,000 to assist some French refugees
"We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt.
We must make our election between economy and liberty
or profusion and servitude.
If we run into such debt, as that we must be taxed in our meat and
in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and
our amusements, for our calling and our creeds...
[we will] have no time to think,
no means of calling our miss-managers to account
but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves
to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow-sufferers...
And this is the tendency of all human governments.
A departure from principle in one instance
becomes a precedent for [another ]...
till the bulk of society is reduced to be mere automatons of misery...
And the fore-horse of this frightful team is public debt.
Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression."
Thomas Jefferson
(1743-1826), US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President

"The welfare of the people in particular has always been
the alibi of tyrants, and it provides the further advantage
of giving the servants of tyranny a good conscience."
Quote by: Albert Camus
"I think when you spread the wealth around it's good for everybody."
President Barack Obama, speaking as someone who has the power to spread the weath via mandate.
"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK. That's not leadership. That's not going to happen."
Barack Obama
"I’m in this race not just to hold an office, but to gather with you to transform a nation."
President Barack obama February 10, 2007 Presidential announcement.
