10. This is precisely why I quit the Republican party.
I got sick of meme of "There won't be any Social Security when you retire", but we have trillions to fund "wars" that are nothing but giant welfare projects for the military industrial complex and Iraqis.

We have trillions of dollars for banks so they can keep their bonus payouts higher than annual profits, but there is no money for the actual homeowners being foreclosed on.

There seems to always be plenty of money to line the pockets of corporations who make campaign contributions but nothing for your average voter.

Fuck that noise. If we are going to spend trillions upon trillions of dollars, it's time to spend it on something ALL Americans can benefit from.

Give me Single-Payer health care, and give me my retirement. Gimme Gimme Gimme, or I'm going to votee votee vottee you assie assie assies out of office.
