Hide The Kids...Congress Is In Town!

Congress... Get Your Priorities In Order.

Lets see, wild unemployment...according to www.deptofnumbers.com as of May 2012 unemployment in the US was at 8.2%, another sight  www.photius.com rates the US as 92nd highest out of 262 countries, not bad you would think! However the US has a a deficit we will never dig out of in the next hundred years, according to www.gfmag.com, the US ranks as #2 in the world deficit, only to be outspent by Ireland, but the forcast is for US to be #! by the end of 2012.

 Crime is also wild as ever... according to www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_tot_cri-crime-total-crimes, the US is rated highest in crime worldwide with total # of crimes... we can beat the best of the world.

Stack the stats anyway you want but crime is also here to stay just like the deficit and unemployment.


A little more bad news...

 (Reuters) - "Americans spend twice as much as residents of other developed countries on healthcare, but get lower quality, less efficiency and have the least equitable system, according to a report released on Wednesday."

So what has congress decided to do about all the mayhem... NOTHING, nothing at all, in an effort to prove which party holds the power. Lets face it, they do not give a damn about anything but power...

So what is congress doing to foolishly spend our tax dollars? Apparently going after athletes on steroids seems to be the latest proof of power fad. 

Seriously, what difference does it make to me, or to the US and the world? More government up our ass! Its a game, thats it, its just a game. If all the professional players quit, if sports became outlawed, would the world collapse... NOT. A few thousand people would have to find a real job just like the other 200 million working Americans. Sports are not a necessity, food is a necessity, warmth and shelter is a necessity, clean water, education, clean air, access to health care... all necessities. Baseball, football, basketball, hockey and whatever else is a player sport it NOT a necessity. Now I’m not saying they have no value, they are just not a necessity. Example: you have not had a meal in 5 days, you aimlessly search for food, and then you see it... 2 doors, one marked all the food you can eat and the other all the baseball you could watch (minus the beer and hot dogs)... if you say I pick baseball then I know you have no idea what its like to go hungry, you are as shallow as they can get, an idiot! When all the necessities are within your reach you forget they are necessities. OK another example... you are bleeding from every orifice and again... 2 doors, all the basketball you can watch or the best healthcare you can get. Again, don’t be an ass, sports are not a necessity by any stretch of the imagination. 

So how long before congress puts an 8 year old child on trial for eating too much candy before PLAYING hopscotch? Its just a game, the number of home runs or yards passed won’t benefit the human race in anyway. Keep up the good work congress, keep spending out taxes on useless shit... keep taking food out of the mouths of our hungry children, you got the power! Hide that Hershey bar kid, congress is in town!
