Add that to the horrific bullshit spending on everything from Planned Parenthood, gun control to tunnel projects to keep Chuck Schumer's Union thugs busy with work for more campaign donations - and the evidence is right there in your face that THIS GOVERNMENT - BOTH PARTIES, are an ENEMY and Clear and Present Danger to what remains of your wealth, property, Rights and liberties.

We might as well have had the Soviets invade and take over for where we now find ourselves.

Same damn difference.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775
