   Bingo. Taxpayers are being robbed - and I use the word deliberately -   
   on a daily basis by government officials that assume we are too stupid   
   and indifferent to KNOW we're being robbed.   
      
   What cannot be stolen through taxation will be stolen through   
   inflation.   
      
   Voters should be DEMANDING serious cuts in spending instead of   
   believing that anything ANY government says can be trusted.   
      
   For reasons which should be obvious, politicians never really care   
   about fiscal responsibility - for them, it's all about maintaining   
   their cushy jobs and robbing us blind.   
      
   A pox upon all their houses.
