They\u2019re being paid in toto a record amount this year. I got no grief for it. It doesn\u2019t matter to me. I don\u2019t care. Washington, too, Washington\u2019s making out like bandits in this year. It doesn\u2019t matter to me. All I\u2019m telling you is those of you out there who were told that your only source of happiness was having the rich have it stuck to \u2019em, well, the rich aren\u2019t having it stuck to \u2019em. You once again are having it stuck to you. While you\u2019re at 12%, 15% unemployment, the evil Wall Street guys are paying themselves record amounts of money, and, despite all this, it\u2019s only Big Government that can save you from Big Business, right? Only Big Government. Well, you be the judge. <\/p>\n<p>Big Tobacco makes you smoke in restaurants. Not exactly, Big Government forbids it. Big Government forbids you smoking most everywhere. Big Automobile forces you to wear seat belts when you drive. Big Auto forces you to not use your cell phone. Uh, no, Big Government is doing that. Big H&amp;amp;R Block, they insist that you fill out tax forms you can\u2019t even understand. Uh, sorry, that\u2019s not Big H&amp;amp;R Block. That\u2019s Big IRS. Big Pharmaceutical, Big HMOs, they\u2019re creating rules and regulations that are spiraling health care costs outta sight. Those evil insurance companies and hospitals and doctors are costing you an arm and a leg instead of fixing it. Uh, wrong. Big Government is causing all these regulations and price increases. Big Bicycle is forcing your kids to wear plastic helmets, knee pads, and elbow pads as they sell you their bikes. No, Big Government is forcing all of that on you. So while they warn you about the power of Big Business and all the stuff they\u2019re making you do, you really live under the rule of Big Government. That\u2019s where you\u2019re losing your freedom; that\u2019s who\u2019s ripping you off; that\u2019s who is screwing you, not Big Business. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Big Government is constantly warning us about the power of Big Business.
