Teabaggers don't realize that entitlements include social security benefits for retirees, the blind, the handicapped, government pensions, unemployment benefits and other benefits that we all pay through our taxes and some day may be needed by them. All Americans complain about how high our taxes are, but compared to other developed countries of the world ours is the lowest. These idiots also don't realize that the new congressmen they put into office to end these entitlements are millionaires. According to OpenSecrets.Org "the median net worth of the 94 incoming law makers at the end of 2011 was $1,066,515", while the "median net worth of the average American household is $66,740" according to the US Census. I guess the Teabaggers see this as peer representation in Congress! Or maybe they think these millions will trickle down to them!
I can go on and on about how the wealthy GOP take advantage of the ignorant and uneducated members of the Tea Party, but that would be preaching to the choir.One can only hope that they will come to their senses before their Republican allies destroy them and all other members of the middle class.
Here are a couple amusing things I found on Facebook, thanks to Being Liberal.
