What Americans Really Want of their Government
In these challenging financial times, ask yourself would you rather have Congress commit to:
- End wasteful government spending
- No new taxes
- Balance the budget
- Protect the value of home ownership
- Put a freeze on Government spending
- Cut 5% of government agencies and spending
In focus groups throughout the fall presidential elections and into 2009 after the elections, the toughest hardest hit communities all had the same question, “when will it end?” Americans knew the CEO’s made mistakes that created crisis were being rewarded. They knew Wall Street guys were still collecting or trying to collect their multi-million dollar bonuses. They knew corporate leaders were still attending lavish retreats as though nothing happened. And it was –and is all bought and paid for by the US tax payers.
With taxpayer dollars in their pockets big corporations are still moving ahead with their frivolity of putting their tainted names in big bold letters on athletic stadiums.
- Citibank is paying the NY Mets $400 million dollars of tax payers money over the next two decades to name their new stadium Citi Field.
- AIG, beneficiary of more then two bailouts is paying $125 million to Manchester United to put their corporate logo on the soccer team’s jerseys.
- Bank of America has cut a deal for $140 million with Carolina Panthers to put its name on the team’s football arena.
America do you think this is a good way to spend American tax payer dollars? In a free enterprise or a system practicing capitalism do you think you should be pressing the congress and executive branch of government to account for and make public every dollar that was spent on these corporations? Beyond a doubt Barrack Obama and George W. Bush has accomplished what Ronald Reagan, Newt Gingrich, and two generations of Republicans failed to do: They have proven beyond a doubt that Washington doesn’t work.
