Exactly.  The government contractors, the ultra wealthy, the corporations 
(pharma, ADM, Exxon, etc. etc.) are now the receivers of taxpayers' money.  The 
rest of us not only work for a living, but it's our taxes that they're 
spending, while the people's SS benefits (among other things) get cut because, 
you see, SS is such a huge share of government spending...  The government 
doesn't exist for the people; the people exist for the government.  That's the 
mentality that lost Iraq, our disdain for people.  Imagine if we went in there 
putting the people first, securing their water instead of their oil?  Who 
wouldn't have supported us?  Instead, we headed straight for the oil that very 
first day, and the Iraqis noticed.  It's said (Galbraith) that we lost the war 
the day we invaded exactly for that reason.
