I just found this funny commercial about the US budget. LOL 

 

 

 

The other two regard the budget.

When they're out there giving tax cuts left and right to people and corporations that make billions every year, yeah, that screws up a country.  Heck, some corporations have a NEGATIVE tax rate now because there's so many loopholes.  On top of this banks continue to be deregulated which was part of the reason why the economy crashed in the first place and the same things are happening again and again.  

 

For example, Time Warner Cable has been able to get away with a 3.9% tax rate.  That's just crazy considering they make billions in profit.

 

Politicians don't care about you (the lower/middle class), they only care about the corporations and people that pay them millions a year so they can get tax breaks.  I feel bad for the people that can't afford an education, veterans that can't afford health care and people that are suffering because of it.  It's just bonkers.  So they will keep cutting taxes for billion dollar corporations (increasing the deficit) and cutting programs for the middle class and lower class which also increases the deficit because they have less money to spend on goods and services, lowering the amount of tax revenue overall.
