If You, Uncle Sam, Won't Pay Up, We, the People, Will

  Now, what if these Americans were soooo responsible that they said, "Listen, Congress, regardless how much you spend we, the citizens, are going to pay up. We may not like all the spending you do -- we don't -- but we, the citizens, have been taught that you pay your bills. So we're going to see that they get paid."
   Then, the Americans went out en mass and placed checks in the mail to the federal government.
   We're talking a form of protest here. We're talking people rising up in protest, saying, "No, this not paying of our bills isn't right. They are going to get paid whether you balance your budget or not. We're the people, and we're responsible. If you won't do it, we will. We might not be able to keep you from spending, but we do have the power to pay the bills -- and we're going to."
