Yes, although Camp and the greediest and least patriotic among us get to celebrate their millions of dollars in tax cuts that is not enough. It is not enough to freeze the wages of average Americans while they rape and crash the economy. You see, while they freeze OUR wages while their skyrocket their solution is not that they pay more and sacrifice for crashing our economy, no to idiots like Camp, we should pay more of our disappearing wages for them to put in their pockets:

Many conservatives, including Camp, believe that although most Americans should be paying lower taxes, more Americans should be paying taxes. The fact that 46.7 million earners pay no income tax creates moral hazard — incentives for perverse behavior: Free-riding people have scant incentive to restrain the growth of government they are not paying for with income taxes.

"I believe," Camp says, "you've got to have some responsibility for the government you have." People have co-payments under Medicare, and everyone should similarly have some "skin in the game" under the income tax system.

In addition to the one-third of the 143 million tax returns filed by individual earners for 2007 that showed no tax liability, additional millions of households have incomes low enough to exempt them from filing tax returns. The bottom two quintiles of earners have negative income tax liabilities — they receive cash payments from the government via refundable tax credits.

Yes, and this attitude shows all that is wrong with much of America. As in the healthcare debate when millions who had insurance protested that others would be able to get it Camp shows the greed and idiocy that has crippled our country.

It is not the fact that greedy, rich business owners refuse to pay an American wage and indeed if they must just outsource our jobs. It is not the fact that more Americans are working harder for less money. It is not the fact that with the paltry slave wages that businesses pay many Americans do not even qualify to pay taxes.

No, the problem is us. We are working harder for less and must depend on the government for more. Somehow, that is not the problem. We should get off our lazy asses and work 100 hours a week so we can give greedy, un-American hypocrites more of our money. They are not the problem with their greed and self-serving idiocy it is us.

And so the theme of Two Americas rises up once more. Their are two Americas, one for men like Camp who take more and more and give less and less. Their excuse, if we just got off our asses and worked harder like the slaves in China do everything will fix itself. Anyone, but the greedy assholes that rule Corporate America and the Republican Party as always are the real problem.

No wonder our government is so dysfunctional and broken when we continue to send greedy, self-serving, hypocrites like Camp to Washington. Men who want to use Christianity for their own twisted needs while ignoring everything Christ said if it means giving up their greed. One thing we can all look forward to is what Christ said about Camp and his ilk. "It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to go to heaven".

That gives all of us who work harder for less and somehow get blamed by lazy, greedy hypocrites for all our problems something to look forward to if we believe in a different Christ. Men like Camp may have a free pass in this world but they will pay with an eternity in hell.

It is definately deserved.
