Obama tells asthmatic kids to take one for the economy

[Danzig]

i have been studying us history a lot lately, my current focus is the civil war era. however, i have also done a lot of reading about this countrys founding. the fed was never meant to be the bloated thing it has become, a collector and redistributor of tax money. local pols trumpeting their success at getting 'federal funds' while everyone ignores how the fed got those funds to begin with. i get your point tho about pols decrying taking money and then touting that receipt of funds. but the issue should really be the system itself. it makes no sense.
matter of fact, as far as money redistribution goes, and how it makes NO sense...look at homeland security. when they started parceling that money out, you had communities screaming for their fair share, when in fact many of those communities arent any target at all..so then legit targets dont get enough to cover their needs. its a joke.
