This is Canada's Top Ten List of America's Stupidity
Of course we look like idiots .... because we are!
Number 10) Only in America... could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 per plate campaign fund-raising event.
Number 9) Only
in America ...could people claim that the government still
discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President,
a black Attorney General and roughly 20% of the federal workforce is
black while only 14% of the population is black 40+% of all federal
entitlements goes to black Americans - 3X the rate that go to whites,
5X the rate that go to Hispanics!
Number 8) Only
in America... could they have had the two people most responsible for
our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury Department)
and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means Committee), BOTH
turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.
Number 7) Only
in America... can they have terrorists kill people in the name of
Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might
be harmed by the backlash.
Number 6) Only
in America... would they make people who want to legally become
American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay
thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss letting
anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically' become
American citizens (probably should be number one).
Number 5) Only
in America... could the people who believe in balancing the budget and
sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as "extremists."
Number 4) Only in America... could you need to present a driver's license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote!
Number 3) Only
in America... could people demand the government investigate whether
oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up
when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. Oil company(Marathon
Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).
Number 2) Only
in America... could the government collect more tax dollars from the
people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion
dollars more than it has per year - for total spending of $7-Million
PER MINUTE, and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.
