Children and the U.S. Goverment
I am a 23 year old single white male who is also a college student who got back a tax return that was less than I thought was fair. Because I do not have any kids and pay for my own tuition. Right now I take nothing from government other than national security (HA HA HA) so why do I pay so much in taxes when I take nothing from this wonderful government. When I look at the kids my age that have kids of their own I see that they get money back even though their tuition is being paid for by the government, and their kids are going to go to school which is paid for by my tax dollars. This is just not people that are in college that pay less in taxes but all people that have kids get tax breaks for the kids that are using so much money in the public school system. Don't get me wrong my dad is a school teacher and I understand where some of the money that I pay in taxes go towards, however it does not make sense that all of the people that have kids in the public school system get money back even though they are taking more money out of the system. You think that the government would see the flaw in the system and take action. But every year the government keeps giving out the money but why you might ask? I think that I have an answer it might be a little strange but I think it is true. One thing that the government can not buy is baby's that will grow up to become military personnel. Because more baby's make more people that can fight for a given country that make it easier for a country to control the world and keep their people safe. So you see the pattern when you get the tax credit for having kids and then these kids grow up that means a bigger pool that the government can choose from if a draft is ever needed but lets hope that this never happens and we all can live in peace.

Watchmen


Just saw the movie that was based on the book Watchmen. WOW what a wonderful movie. Although if you have not Read the Graphic Novel that was written by the genius/crackpot Alan Moore you might not like the movie and probably will not understand what is going on. There is little back story and somethings are just left out. So sorry people you need to read something that is a comic book but the movie is worth the read I promise and the millions of other people who have read it will tell you the same thing. Please read and please see the movie but be warned it is violent, bloody and does have some scenes of people making love.
Now to change to another topic I read comic books and I am 23 almost 24 years old. Yes this is a kid thing I know, that is what you all keep telling me. First if you have not picked up a comic book in your life time you should because they are good and if you have just not read one since you were a kid I suggest you start looking back into it.
Back to Watchmen. If another person says that they do not want to watch another superhero movie let me remind you that if you have not read Watchmen first please do not judge and second Watchmen is about vigulanties not about superheros other than Dr. Manhattan there is not one person in the book that even has super powers. They are people like Batman, Punisher, and Ironman. Superheros are like Superman, Spiderman, and the Fantastic Four.
Thanks for taking the time to read and here is a quote for your time

Please stop with the Obama emails


Well there are a lot of things that I could start with but lets start when I got up this morning I Thought to myself it is nice that I am able to get an hour more sleep on a school day which was nice.
But that is where all of this blogging stuff begins. I was burning a DVD of This Divided State for a friend and I remember hearing some Sean Hannity where he was talking about Barack Obama and the way that he is running the country. although it is only his first couple of months in office Sean Hannity said that he is trying to change things to fast and that he is running the country into the ground. When i think of This Divided State I remember all of the republicans saying that any person that says anything bad against the president should be held for treason. But now these same people are saying things about President Obama that by their standards during the Bush Era would be an act of treason. Also it is not just the national leaders that are guilty of this please all of the people that think it is cool to send emails about the president that are not appropriate just because you are a republican. President Obama has done nothing that should offend you so far other than being "Black" or a Democrat so lay off the man and remember when you told me I was anti American for voting for Obama, and not caring for the policies that Former President Bush put into place that you are now doing the same thing.
Thank you for your time and hope you read again.
