Allocation of funds, or basically wasteful spending is the key to it all. What I believe the Tea Party movement is addressing is that we no longer want to keep funding that waste in Washington with additional tax dollars at the expense of the people. Only to clarify my point about Ron Paul, and by no means a "dig" towards you or those who supported him. It wasn't the message that made me and others think he was a loon, but the presentation. Perhaps if Obama had not horded all the telepromters, he could have stayed on message a bit better. That was a playful dig directed towards the President, I freely admit that. I disagree with your however on the tax code, it needs to be scrapped after today, and rewritten in a form that does not allow for the need of a lawyer to interpret it. This protest is like any other, people having their voices heard, and wanting politicians to listen, to represent their beliefs and values. 235 years ago, some folks did the same thing, and not a nation, but a world stood up and listened. Perhaps this unified voice will get those in DC of which you speak of, those Central Planner to notice, and then perhaps real CHANGE can take place that all Americans can believe in. I have enjoyed this debate today with you, there is more common ground I believe than what separates, best wishes I agree, again with the root of your point.
