Just a note (more like a dissertation) to my liberal friends:
The founders of the United States knew what would happen if
the “popular” ideas won out. That is the basic premise of the Constitution and
the Bill of Rights. National government in this country was intentionally
hamstrung to prevent majority overbearance. Yet ever since TR, and especially
Wilson, FDR, LBJ, and BHO, the “Progessives” have systematically undermined the
Constitution and every American’s right to self-determination. These are
protected in the 9th and 10th amendments. Yet you conveniently
forget that. The T.E.A. Part that you so
arrogantly call tea baggers and worse is a grass roots upheaval against FEDERAL
overreach. You people think that the Feds should do everything and we believe
that they should only step in when all else fails. HUGE difference.
After Sandy I have
watched the indoctrinated people of the Soviet Socialist State of New York cry,
literally cry, because BIG Government doesn’t help them. Read some history, like the Johnstown flood,
the Dayton flood, and see what everyday people who live there do to help each
other without BIG Government. Actually when BIG Government gets involved what
happens; Katrina, Andrew, Hugo, the ice storm of 2009 in TN and KY BIG
Government fails miserably. As a matter of
fact the Country Music family came to the rescue in 2009 and restored everyone
so much quicker. Leave FEMA out of it, they do so much more harm than good. If
FEMA was disbanded I wouldn’t miss it in the least. Natural disasters are LOCAL
let the LOCALS manage the recovery. Resources from the state and federal
government should be under local control, they know better what needs to go
where.
That doesn’t touch what the Progressives have done to
destroy our individual rights and liberties. Start with the 16th
amendment, and the 17th amendment. With the creation of an income
tax the Federal Government stepped into Totalarianism. It’s only gotten worse
as time has gone on. The 17th amendment ended the United States of
America, since individual states had no more say in the federal government
beyond the Electoral College for Presidential elections. Which BTW Progressives
want to end also. Both need to be repealed as well as overturning the Federal
Reserve Act. I say GO back to a Gold standard. Stop spending more than the
nation can produce. Get real.
The U.S. Dollar is currently the reserve currency for the
rest of the world. We have so abused its value with QE1, QE2, and now QE3, that
the rest of the world wants out. There are some (including Treasury Secretary Geithner)
in this country that would welcome that. Don’t you people realize the unmitigated
disaster that would occur; I hope you have a big enough wheelbarrow to carry
your cash so that you can go shopping for bread? We are talking hyper-inflation
on the levels of the Weimar Republic.
I am near retiring and I have ZERO expectation of seeing any
of the hundreds of thousands that I personally have paid into effen Social
Security. They tell me every three months that I can expect $3000 a month for
the rest of my life. REALLY? REALLY? Get real if I get $300 dollars a month I’ll
be surprised. Besides after what I think will happen if the dollar is disenfranchised
as the reserve currency it won’t matter. So if that happens, every American
over the age of 30 has completely pissed away 15% of your hard earned wages on
a system that is now officially out of money. You can expect nothing. EVER. I
kid you not. What’s worse is that the 401K that I have been pouring money into
is also going to be worthless. Well doesn’t that give you a nice warm fuzzy?
Trust me bedlam will ensue once reality sets in.
We as a people still have the power in our hands to stop the
insanity from happening. My liberal friends are however going to have to admit
that the government can’t do everything. It costs too much; we can’t afford to
impose proper morality on 310 Million people. Less Government in a BIG way is
the only way to save this mess. More Government spending only dooms us all.
