I guess I should take comfort in what you are saying, but the federal government confiscates a rather large portion of my personal gross product. I would like to think that I am getting something in return besides waste and inefficiency. At least with the Church, if I send them 10% I get useless promises of blessings after death. Congress can't even give me that!
Amen

Yeah, I know you would. I think the Crominbus spending package disappointed me even more than the amnesty and refusal to enforce the border. I just don't see how the chamber of commerce Republicans are much better for me as a common taxpayer than the moderate Democrats. How would Jeb Bush be a better president for me than Hillary Clinton?

You get far more in return than you could ever pay. You just don't realize it.
