GOP Congressman: 'It Is Not Your Money'

worldnetdaily.com

Cavuto asked Knollenberg: "When the housing industry CEOs come to you and say, 'You know, [if] we go under and all the ancillary businesses – the dishwasher manufacturers, the washer-and-dryer manufacturers, the Lowe's and the Home Depots that vastly depend on our being alive and vibrant – if we go under, there's hell to pay. And then the textile manufacturer comes to you and says, 'If we go down, there's hell to pay.' And on and on and on we go. Where do you draw the line with our money?"

"It is not your money," said Knollenberg.

Cavuto screamed back, "It is! It is taxpayers money!"

I know it's from WND, but I'll post the video, it was said on Fox news!

Is this how MOST of our politicians feel about this bailout money?

This is totally ridiculous what he said!

Where does he think this money comes from, trees?

He was also arguing that the auto industry can't sell cars because nobody can get a loan to buy one of their cars, so they should be bailed out so they will be around when people finally are able to get loans!

Know there's another ridiculous statement he made in this interview!

Or and i know this is crazy, make a car that does not require a god damn loan, what a concept. Take the hit and deal with it like all businesses here have to , nobody came and bailed me out when my home business was suffering. I hate these big companies trying to dip in, and I hate more that gov made this so easy, a company should hate and I mean hate to go the gov for aid, as in the past that meant loosing profit, loosing share of the business, some sort of reparation for having to be bailed out, now there in line like its a great thing, which tells me we the people are getting screwed hard. Sorry I just get so pissed at this.

This just goes to show, in better detail, the mindset of the politician. At first they throw the idea around that they don't want a bailout package because it is going to come from the taxpayer. This guy was one of them (mainly from the GOP side is where this resistence came from). Only for them, once it was passed as they knew it would be after their initial sign of feigned resistence, to begin thinking of the money as THEIRS to use as they see fit and NOT OURS! What an f'ing joke!

The government knows its not our money. This Congressman just got backed into a corner and accidentally let the truth slip out.

The whole idea of the free market is a lie. All the money goes up to a few bank accounts, and spread just enough of it out there to keep everyone in debt to them. The average American is none the wiser and happily slaves away for his debt masters, each year anticipating his fleeting retirement so he can lay back and die, passing the burden of sustaining the super-wealthy to the next generation. So it was and so it will be until America is nothing but a shadow of what it used to be. God knows the people are kept too deaf and dumb for any sort of uprising.

That arrogant self centered pr*ck! It's not OUR money? Really? I should consider NOT filing taxes next year or ANY year after that then, if this is the attitude they're going to have.

I remember when I was young being told that the reason we paid taxes, was to pay for things like roads, police etc. I truly honestly believed that. But after I started learning the truth behind it, I got madder and madder. I knew it was corruption, but never, NEVER did I ever think, until this very moment, think that these a** holes thought that OUR taxpayer money was their "entitlement" and if that's the way they think, then perhaps we need some civilian vigilantes to start goin en masse getting rid of these people. I don't care if it's citizens arrest or what have you, as long as they're removed and made an example of for any other arrogant politician who thinks this way.
