Economically literate people understand that government spending is really taxpayer spending. Therefore taxpayers should be the ones who decide how to spend the money, if at all. As a result voting should be restricted to those who pay taxes.

Non-taxpayers will ALWAYS vote for the politician who offer the most hand-outs...won't they?

Non-taxpayers have no skin in the game...do they?

Non-taxpayers will NEVER vote for policies which help fix America's problems, if it means less to them...will they?

Economically illerate people understand that taxes reduce the available pool of (1) savings and (2) investment capital. A country with "savers" is and indication of a stable country, as opposed to an unstable country. And investment capital is what allows businesses to open or expand. Samll businesses account for about 95% of the jobs in America. And why is it when a city, state, or even the Federal Government wants to stimulate jobs the first thing they offer is tax breaks ? (BTW it can't work BOTH ways).

And while I'm at it, why have we allowed politicians to pass laws to which THEY are NOT subject to ????? Or is it that: "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others".

 More Doublespeak = Government spending means taxpayer spending

Department of War means Defense Department

Evil Capitalists means small business owners who provide jobs

 OK kiddies - time to wake up, this is going on all around you,  but many either ignore it, or even worse, support it.
