Mark Steyn rips media dishonesty of 'parties working together' meme

Please consider. Republicans hate the 1099 reporting requirements and allegedly, so do the democrats. Business owners hate it and so do the accountants who'll profit from it.

Yet, despite all this opposition. The law still exists.

This is a great example of the bigger problem. Take the government as a whole. It's enormous. Around $4 trillion. Then take the parts of the government that the parties disagree on. Maybe $40 billion which is the current difference in the budget battle. That's 1%!

The parties are getting their respective bases of American citizens up in a lather about 1% of the spending. One party says the other is hate filled because they want to spend 1% more. The other claims the opposition is Hitler because they want to spend 1% less. The other 99% of spending? Oh that's fucking gone. No debate. It's spent. It's untouchable. Good bye.

Who pays that bill? No worries. They have no voice. They aren't even born yet. Fuck 'em.
