A very rare occurrence in an interview where a Democrat actually eschewed bullshit for a direct, honest statement: to wit, we don’t deserve to keep all of our money.

CHICAGO (WLS) – A lot of reaction Wednesday morning to Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky’s interview with Don Wade and Roma.
Schakowsky said that Americans don’t deserve to keep all of their money because we need taxes to support our society.
“I’ll put it this way. You don’t deserve to keep all of it and it’s not a question of deserving because what government is, is those things that we decide to do together. And there are many things that we decide to do together like have our national security. Like have police and fire. What about the people that work at the National Institute of Health who are looking for a cure for cancer,” Schakowsky said.
This is how these people truly think. Government is the end-all and be-all.
To quote the great Clint Eastwood in Unforgiven, “deserve’s got nothing to do with it.”
The federal govt. doesn’t pay for my police and fire depts.
