How about the govt.? I suppose the idea you present here is that people are supposed to provide you with goods and services out of the goodness of their hearts, as determined by you, while you get paid for what you do! I can go out and spend say $500.00 on a guitar and maybe feel I got ripped off a bit...I am required to pay tens of thousands of dollars to the federal govt...and get exactly what in return?

All the ones you mention are ultimately accountable to the consumer. You have the choice whether you want to do business with them. Do you have that choice with your taxes? Who is government accountable to? If you think the voters, then consider why the government is growing 5% while business and personal revenues are stagnant or shrinking. -Greg

If I can smell them from across the waiting room then they are clearly different from me. If they want to lay around all day and be losers, that's great. I don't care. But I shouldn't have to get stuck paying for them. That is exactly what is happening in this broken system. Don't you think it's wrong? |
