America's Credit Card

Imagine your parents having a horrible spending problem, and they use their credit card to buy everything they want, no matter how absurd or wasteful. Now, you know what they're doing is stupid, and you try to tell them to stop this foolishness, but they do anyway and they don't seem to care.

Then, 20 years later, both your parents die. But instead of inheriting a small amout of money, you inherit their debt of over $100,000, and YOU are required to pay for it.

Sounds absurd, right? Think again. This is happening TODAY! The politicians in Washington are spenindg trillions... that's right, not millions or billions, but TRILLIONS of dollars of on silly programs for our parents and grandparents which are being funded with borrowed money. 

Once we teens enter the workforce, we will immediately be saddled with all this unbelievable debt. We're not just talking about healthcare programs. We're talking about silly programs like Senator Harry Reid's "Cowboy Poetry Festival" in Nevada. We're talking about handing over billions of dollars to other countries for foreign aid. We're giving away billions of dollars each year in agricultural subsidies to big agricultural companies, and spending billions on helping illegal immigrants who are here ILLEGALLY! The list is endless... 

Don't think it's a big deal? You may not think so now... But in less than ten years when we are all working, the government will take up to ONE HALF of our paychecks to pay for all these ridiculous programs. Don't think it will happen? It already is. Top tax rates now are well over 30%, and the government spending is only accelerating. This country is BROKE, and very few people seem to care.

A small rebelious group of Republican politicians called the "TEA Party" were recently elected to office last fall. They are trying to address this unbelievable spending. They may be our last and ONLY hope for OUR future.

Wake up, fellow teens! Talk to your parents about this travesty! We MUST stop our parents from electing the same liberal, wasteful spending politicians, and start supporting TEA Party candidates. Otherwise, we will end up working our entire lives paying off our parent's debt, with no benefit to us whatsoever! It's OUR future! START PAYING ATTENTION!
