Why I am a supporter of the Tea Party Movement
A friend and I was talking about the Tea Party’s that were happening on the 15th of April, his impression was that they were of no use. He suggested it would be best if millions of us went to Washington and protested. The problem is that millions of people don’t just wake up one day and get together in the millions to protest. Things like that are built through grassroots movements, where people come together to make their voices heard.I explained to him that the individual is often taken as just another person talking about things, hundreds of people are noticed, and millions can’t be ignored!The one thing I wanted to impress him with was that if the grassroots movement fails then no one will hear it when you have something to say!Another question was what do you do at the rallies? I explained that for me the rallies are a place to join your voice with others. I also look at it as a place to charge the spirit, to help motivate myself in the fight to keep our government true to its Constitutional Representative Republic.The problem is that at the grassroots level it’s hard to find speakers who can motivate the crowd or who can be the leader that each movement needs.But worst yet is if people have the attitude that, what people at the Tea Party are doing doesn’t make a difference then it won’t. So let this be a warning, Go to the Tea Party’s, make your voices heard and prove that the heart of America beats strong and that we will be heard!God Bless America and this fine republic!http://www.resistnet.com/profile/anti_socialism

To much in taxes!

What is the total amount paid in taxes that is ok with the average person. If I earned $60,000 last year and paid $16,000 in payroll, medicare-medicaid, and SSN. Why is it that so much more of it was taken out in fees for my phones, cable, electricity, food, gas and so many other things. Does anyone know the actual amount paid for an average family?
