Santelli, “STOP THE SPENDING”
From Beautiful Homer Glen, I am sickened by the thought of a compromise that raises the debt ceiling even 1 cent. My Property taxes in Homer Glen keep going up because I need to pay more to the local taxing bodies. These elected board members forget where they came from. They think they need to give me something with my own money while taking a cut for their governmental entity. Instead of trying to cut back or keep things the same they expand government. People right here in Homer Glen, are losing income, jobs, and homes. The cry from the people is STOP THE SPENDING!
The Congress was sent to Washington to de-fund Health Care, balance the budget, “How” STOP THE SPENDING!!!!!!! http://www.examiner.com/will-county-libertarian-in-chicago/don-t-laugh-at-sentelli
Basic economics for elected officials
Understanding that spending causes Debt, and the Elected officials need to stop using our money to buy our votes with doing things for us. Remember the only money government has comes from the taxpayer.
Joe Walsh has a sense of purpose
From Beautiful Homer Glen, I am sick of the never ending story of the government needing more money to fund new and increased programs. Homer Glen Taxes and water bills only go up. There is a terrible economic climate. Yet government on all levels spend taxpayer money like it grows on the money tree in your back yard. The problem is the tree stopped producing money a long time ago. Rep. Joe Walsh Congressman, (R-Ill.) said we have the opportunity of a lifetime before us now. “Cut, Cap, and Balance” is the single most significant reform package that’s come through Congress in decades. America is on an unsustainable path that requires a drastic change of course in the way Washington spends hard-earned taxpayer dollars. http://www.examiner.com/will-county-libertarian-in-chicago/joe-walsh-s-sense-of-purpose
Jobs! Jobs! Jobs!
From beautiful Homer Glen, listening to the radio, I hear the jobless rate is now 9.1%. That high number helps me understand why there are so many homes abandoned and why foreclosures are rising. Business is struggling because people have less disposable income. The 9.1% number does not include people who ran out of unemployment, and those that just gave up looking for work. The actual unemployment rate is ? In any event there is a big problem.

Stop Foreign Aid
From Beautiful Homer Glen, I have been trying for over 2 hours to find the total amount of foreign aid we will be paying to countries this year. I can’t find the actual dollar amount, but after reading numerous articles, my guess is APX. 1% of the budget. I am thinking of these payments going from our bankrupt country to countries that aren’t even on our side. My taxes in Homer Glen are high enough. The State of Illinois loves the money tree growing in the citizen’s backyard. The Federal Government just spends on everything even if it is Unconstitutional. I am sick of paying the fruits of my labor to corrupt, bloated, wasteful, governments. This includes all countries getting foreign aid, Illinois, and the U.S. Federal Government.
