Great video. The republican mantra is to starve the beast by excessive military spending, tax cuts and low or no taxes for the rich, scream about deficit reduction, and then cut social programs claiming we are broke.

The Democrats led by Clinton and Obama sneakily appear to yell against the republicans but secretly set us up for deficit commissions created by democrats. Don't be surprised if at the end Obama ends up with $100 million dollars by selling us out. He will then be on par with Clinton and Romney and then he'll start some phoney "global initiative".

All because you silly people are so carried away with their "oratoracle mastery" that you don't care what these phoney politicians are doing.

Thank you for the video Nancy. It explains with humour in clear simple terms just how our hard earned tax money seems to be squandered by some politicians to benefit their few wealthy friends rather than benefiting the poorer tax paying public majority who voted them into power. When I had a job I used to wonder also just where my tax money was going, and why I was being forced to work harder for little, if any, benefit. With machines now doing a lot of the work that used to be done manually I would have thought that the pace of life would become easier, not harder, and with a lot more leisure time for all.

It is infuriating to hear the stories of government agencies "finding" millions of dollars in their accounts...
