Residing in the wrong state

Oh boy, heard the details today from Baucus' Senate conceptualization for socialized medicine. I'm living in the wrong state.

It seems that the conceptualization includes some kind of equalizer-multiplier-doomsday machine mathematical function that determines who gets stuck carrying most of the burden for this vile socialist program. If a state's unemployment rate is astronomically high, it doesn't have to pay the 49% in income tax. This means: Nevada, Michigan, and Rhode Island.

If the unemployment rate in your state is only moderately devastating, you get to pay Nevada, Michgan, and Rhode Island's share. The states who will be crushed under this miserable and unfair scheme are: Illinois, California, and Florida.

Please.... California looks healthy to the buttheads in the Senate? Good grief, what end of the telescope are they looking out of, exactly? What idiots. And Illinois is something like $540 million in the red. Pretty damn pathetic if that makes Illinois a real high-performer economically.

I live in Illinois, but as I noted a couple days ago, I'm looking forward to abandoning my home for lack of funds and moving into the back seat of my car in coming months. I did have a question about where to park the car. Now I know: Nevada. It's warm there during the day, and at night I can shuffle from one casino to another begging for change, drinking abandoned cocktails, and looking pathetic -- maybe some jackpot winner will take pity and toss me a few bucks for dinner from time to time.

My only real question is: Isn't this equalizer thing unconstitutional? Isn't there a clause in there somewhere that says if the feds plan to drive one citizen into poverty, they have to drive ALL citizens into poverty equally? I thought the only other option was to introduce a "special bill," one that gives only a crony or two special favors and largesse from the feds. Like every line item in the Stimulus package or the Pork Bill that followed it.

'Course, I could be wrong. And what the hell, the 111th Congress has entirely anihilated the Constitution already. Why pretend it still has any relevance whatsover, if it gets in the way of the takeover bids of these power-mad freaks?

I mean, do you seriously believe that individual citizens count for anything anymore? Except as sources of revenue for these stupid bastards in Washington.

I mean, really. And guess what? I'm tapped out and thanks to way these geniuses in DC have handled the economy, I don't have any real prospects.

I did write Senator Dick(head) Durbin about this. Like that matters. I'll get back some silly crap about how we all need to kill ourselves working to keep little fishes alive and sacrifice our entire hope for any sort of future in the name of keeping this son of a bitch in office.

Can you tell I'm really getting sick of all this bullshit? It's not even funny anymore.
