taxation without representation

I could go off on a tirade how the national debt threatens the security of our nation but I am sure you have all had many conversations and monologues with similar word combinations leaving your mouths. Let me leave it at I am irate over what Washington is transforming our free, capitalistic society into. Our children have no say in this debt, well, neither do we, but they will be paying for the ill designs and stupidity of the Republicans and Democrats; thus taxation without representation. What are they thinking? What was their purpose of running us into this inconceivable debt? How can we recover from this?
