Here's a lesson in communism. The government which is comprised of non elected officials tells you exactly what to do, when to do it and how to do it. And if you dont like it, well then that's too bad, because there are no free elections in communism.
Just look at chinese gymnasts who are chosen at 3 years old to train all their lives for the olympics. That sounds like a country I want to live in.
You need to look at the macro level of things and not just nit pick because you had to pay an excise tax on your buell.
Your fore fathers came here for a reason, because this country is free and offers the possibilty of a better lifesytle. You have no perspective because you were born into this and raised here.
Just because you were born here doesn't mean you are owed anything. Look at all the republican candidates for president. All of them except for Romney grew up poor or at most lower middle class. You have to fight for the things you want in life.
It's this attitude that you are owed something that pisses me off. What have you ever done in your life that's so great? Exactly, nothing!
