Reality is stranger than parody today. In my browsing around this morning, I ran across this video called "We’re the Government, and You’re Not" on Living the Scientific Life. It’s a parody of the old "citizenship" films that many of us saw when we were young. It encourages Americans to "Get Out And Spend". I thought it was kind of funny, and posted it as a comment on our Crack of Doom this morning. [FYI- I am not in agreement with all the politics here.]
A little more browsing this morning however, brought me to this video from CNN. It basically says the same thing as "We’re the Government", but this time, the video isn’t a parody.
Unbelievable.

I did, however a great deal of my income collectively goes to the banksters (big business), property taxes(counties or local governments), insurance companies(big business again), and/or back to state and federal governments in taxes so don’t expect me to spend much of anything probably ever again.
I would like to paraphrase the message in the video, “You’re already in a death spiral, why not sit back, pop a bottle of bubbly, and enjoy the ride to third world status.”
Parody Fights Back!
