Tax Day Tea Party

Yes, I'm attending one in Midland, MI. I've never been involved in a demonstration before. Need to be busy during the day making my banners!

Earlier today, my wife and I wasted a whole bunch of money as we kissed the envelopes containing our State and Federal tax return envelopes! I've been upset for weeks since my tax accountant told me the bad news.

Tax Day Tea Party

I estimated that there were about 750-1000 people at the tea party I attended in Midland, MI. The local news said there were 450 people there. The main theme was not against a specific political party but the corruption and uncontrolled spending by both. There wasn't a person of color to be seen anywhere in the crowd. Many emphazised what is going to happen to our next generation. I saw all age groups but the majority were middle aged and older.

I felt good for attending but see the need to keep focused on these issues and make my thoughts known to others in the future and keep the pressure on so they hear us!

Liberals feel that we are cry-babies for losing the election. I see it that we, the working minority, are going to be forced to pay by taxation for the life styles of others that were foolish in there expenditures or for those that are not willing to work but want the same things as me.

I don't feel sorry for those that have balloon mortgages or those that over bought homes with no money down. With the most recent banking changes, I understand we are back to 100% mortages again. The liberal news media is saying that the economy is coming back as evidenced by a spike in home purchases. Most didn't learn from recent mortgage mistakes and are tempted into making the same mistakes again.

I'm concerned what events will be triggered when/if GM and Chrysler file bankruptcy. It could cause a major upset with the supplier network that will migrate across the entire nation into a domino effect.
