[quote=patientlywaiting]We value responsibility and sacrifice, and people are praised for being financially responsible.[/quote]
Clearly you’re still living in the 1950’s. Well, let me be the first to welcome you to the new millennium, and let me bring you up to date. It turns out that in recent years, this has flip flopped, and now we value excessive spending and irresponsibility. Not only in the individual but in the government too. The more you spend, the more benefits society will heap upon you. The more you save, and the more responsible you are, the more of a chump you are, and deserve to have what you have saved taken from you. Once again, welcome to 2008.
