Here’s the full video of Sean Hannity’s special report “Boomtown” – with Stephen Bannon and Peter Schweizer, exposing how the politicians in Washington, DC use our money to enrich themselves as well as lobbyists, government contractors and other special interests. Seven of the top ten counties in the United States are in the DC area, even though the city doesn’t produce anything. It’s horrible, the business model there is government and extracting money from the taxpayers.
If you don’t have 40 minutes to watch the whole thing, check out the write-ups of the special at American Thinker and Big Government.

Update: Linked by The Other McCain – thanks!
If the states were smart they would get together and pass an amendment limiting the the taxes paid by individuals and companies to the federal government.
The conservative states would probably keep their taxes low to keep jobs coming to their states and the liberal states would keep increasing spending as usual. Less money to DC forces the power to move from DC to the state capitals.
Less power in DC is a good thing.

Just caught it on FNC tonight. Maddening can’t even come close to describing the feelings I had when watching this. Most all going on using borrowed monies, both major political Parties are at fault. It’s a systemic problem that stems from symbiotic relationships with a measure of nepotism thrown in. Definitely worth the time to watch, especially if you’re an OWSer.

Government rich is an industry. The permanent political class is using taxpayers to network their cronyism domestically and abroad. BOOMTOWN is very informative, and I hope many younger people see the largess and aristocracy of government subversion. Baseline budgeting, also, must be halted immediately. That $1.3 Trillion of Stimulus-TARP money laundering added into the budget 4/2009 and every year after, needs to be extracted NOW. Crony-capitalism and excessive regulation destroys. Capitalism prospers in a society when allowed to function.

All Americans need to wake up — big government is ONLY good for a few — those in DC that live high on the hog from taxpayers — your money and mine — ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
THANKS FOX and HANNITY for showing us the truth that no other news media wants us to know because they too benefit from big government
The American people need to rise up and make necessary changes now — we cannot afford to create debts for our children so the DCers can enjoy the fine life
We need to stop listening to politicians because all they want is to continue their lifestyle and their families in DC
I am literally sick to my stomach — this video needs to get out to the public who does not want to listen to FOX and HANNITY

DC is a parasite, a cancer on the body (America) that contributes little as it consumes the life out of the country. A follow-up is needed that names names of lobbyists and elected officials in the act. The more this is done, the more that will be afraid of being outed. Cockroaches scatter for cover when the light goes on. Otherwise, we are witnessing the slow death of the greatest nation on earth. The thought of it: Washington being an imperial city turns the stomach of anyone who knows what are forefathers fought to resist and what they designed for us in the Constitution. Is this what we have become? No! Just ask middle American taxpayers. They always know what’s right. The question becomes, how do we get rid of the cancer consuming us?
