What are they talking about at your neighborhood tea party meeting?
Listen and you will hear a rejection of the welfare state, or the culture of dependency rampant in Europe.
Michael Barone wrote about this a few days ago:
"But they recognize, correctly, that the Obama Democrats are trying to permanently enlarge government and increase citizens' dependence on it.
And, invoking the language of the Founding Fathers, they believe that this will destroy the culture of independence which has enabled Americans over the past two centuries to make this the most productive and prosperous -- and the most charitably generous -- nation in the world."
That's exactly right!
The tea party movement is about rejecting the uncontrolled expansion of government.
We learned this week that the Obama administration is looking at controlling how much salt we eat!
They want to control the financial sector, the insurance industry and manufacturing through something called "cap and trade".
How much is enough? The Dems are trying to turn the US into a Euro-welfare state.
Lots of lots of Americans don't want that! Read The Democrats' Big Disconnect By William Murchison!
That's what the tea parties are all about! Again, listen to what the tea parties are saying!
