California Tax Refunds and the US Economy

Well, the dumbasses in Sacramento finally reached accord, and we'll soon be seeing our tax refunds. Oh wait...did I say soon? I note the FTB says it could take 25 business days for a refund to get to those who are owed money. That's another 5 weeks, or about the end of April for most of us as I figure it. Yet in another twist of their crooked tongue, they say the March refunds will be made on time. How in hell do they figure that will happen?

Folks, we're in deep kimche in California and the entire country. The tip of the iceberg has just surfaced and under the current Democratic leadership, we're screwed. Everyone wants a piece of the stimulus package but they have no idea who's paying for it! What a bunch of idiots! Where the hell do they think the money is coming from? I can understand the greedy bastards on Wall Street and the Banks and AIG screwing the taxpayers because that's what they do...but good lord, people, get some sense, and recognize you'll be paying this back for generations to come. Your children, grandchildren and those to follow will suffer for this debacle. IF the country as we know it survives at all.

I believe there will be a revolution between parties, a knock-down, drag-out fight in the halls of the legislatures in states and Washington until this is settled. Let's pray it ends there before it's taken to the streets by people who are out of work and out of hope. As unemployment grows and hope for the future dims, the Washington bureaucrats prattle on about a light at the end of the tunnel. What they don't tell you is that the light is at the head of a runaway locomotive and it's going to run your ass over! And the bureaucrats are riding the pork filled train that follows.

Mr. Obama made some big promises but all he seems to be able to do is piss away more and more money every day.
