#86 Baby Got Back

Sir Mix A-Lot says he likes big butts and he can not lie.  McDonald's says super size me.  Walmart has become the Superstore.  And although it is not new, government seems to be following the same pattern.  Republicans and Democrats alike have become so faraway from being in touch with the people they have no clue what the solutions to our problems are anymore.  Big government...baby got back!  Look at some of the things that we are being fed, by the feds (and states)

• California governor Jerry Brown (D) and Texas governor Rick Perry (R)- HPV vaccinations for 12 year olds.  Perry has come under fire in the debates because of his bill that he signed to make mandatory vaccinations to young girls.  Brown has always been under fire because he is an idiot to begin with, but now as of 10/9/2011 has not vetoed a bill that would allow 12 year old girls to get vaccinations without parents consent.  Both are wrong to do what they did and/or are doing.  They are taking away parental guidance.  They are taking away the power of the parent to make decisions.  Both sides say that have to do this because parents aren't taking the responsibility to do anything about this problem.  That may be true, but who gives the right to the government then?
• Ohio governor John Kasich (R)- Ohio Senate Bill #5.  This bill takes away power of public employees to fight for their jobs.  He is claiming it will help balance the budget.  He is claiming public employees do not share in the responsibility in paying their fair share of pensions and health care.  He is claiming public employees are not working as hard as they can.  It started off as a way to control unions, but in the end it will not hurt unions.  It will hurt those who work hard.  It cuts public employees pay.  This point alone will cause many who have worked to a certain level of income to not be able to pay for their homes.  Many will fall into foreclosure and then send the housing market spiraling downward all over again in Ohio.
• Barack Obama- Jobs Bill.  Most of the jobs that would be created are government jobs.  Who pays for government jobs?  Taxpayers.  And the second largest group that would benefit from these are those that build infrastructure.  How does that help the economy?  Sure, good highway and communication systems help businesses but they aren't the ones picking up the bill to pay for it.  Governments DO NOT create jobs.  Individuals do.  Creating government jobs do not help the economy.
• Barack Obama- Recovery Act.  Millions of dollars given to "fix" infrastructure.  This is one of the largest waste of money ever done by any government in the history of mankind.  Look at how some of the money ($12 million in this case)  is being used.  http://www.fairfield-city.org/bypass4/intersections.cfm.  In case you can't see what is going on, to go straight from the sides streets, you have to turn right then go 500 yards and turn left, then come back to the same spot 500 yards back and then turn right.  To get onto the side streets from the main street, you have to go 500 yards past the street you want, turn left, then come back 500 yards to the same spot you were in before and turn right.  This is just one of the many projects that this money was given for.  Who pays for it?  Taxpayers and drivers trying to turn left.
• Democratic controlled Congress, 2008- Health Care Bill.  Enough said already on this?

They keep shoving things down our throats.  It's time to shove it back somewhere else on them.  Vote them all out in 2012!
