"For their tax dollars, Europeans get full health care coverage, generous pensions, daycare, long paid vacations, maternity leave, free college, and public transportation that doesn’t smell like pee. Whereas our tax dollars go towards military bases in Germany, subsidies to oil companies, building bridges to nowhere, wars, and putting half of Cheech and Chong in prison." -Bill Maher, "Real Time with Bill Maher".

How about a compromise--I'll pay for my own health care and education if I can quit paying for other people's wars.
I've thought cancelling all our Empire's wars, saving that money and using part of it, anyway, to pay for the schools and infrastructure, then saving the rest would be a magnificent idea, personally.
