I think we should be very concerned with how our 'representatives' in Washington are making a farce of this very important issue with their political game-playing. But that's just me?

  I received a phone call from an aquaintance that seemed scared at first, and then annoyed and apparently they felt they had the right to call me up and go ballistic on me about it.  People are not going to be in a good mood from now until Aug 2, I don't think...

It really is quite simple. Washington needs to stop spending money they do not have and then expect us tocome up with it. ALL taxes flow down to the consumer.
