The states have big problems. New York, California, and all but one state are in the red. The U.K. is deeply in the red, as are most nations around the world, with Japan being the worst. Last Saturday, riots broke out in London, as the conservative government brought forth plans to economize and cut off the fat in the welfare state, plus layoffs of tens of thousands of government employees. We know what happened in Wisconsin when their new Republican governor decided to balance his budget in the most logical way he could think of, and that was to cut off union freebies. The states cannot print money to pay their bills, and neither can you nor I. The D.C. Gang can, and that ’privilege’ began with the founding of the Federal Reserve.
The states’ out of balance budgets, are traceable to the same source as the federal budget being out of balance. (There is no budget in D.C. as of now, but the debts continue). It’s the politicians, in 100% of the cases. Politicians love to spend, whether there is any money in the till or not. Spend, spend, spend, and elect, elect, elect. The vicious circle of spending and electing is all too familiar. So familiar, that the average citizen thinks getting a federal or state grant, is free money. It’s not. Every printing press, unbacked, dollar put into circulation, without tax receipts to cover them, are decreasing their value, just as sure as the sun will rise tomorrow. When a state foolishly spends more than it takes in, it has to cut back and balance its budget, or go bankrupt. It a state actually went bankrupt, the consequences would be so severe, that even politicians realize it is unthinkable. Balance they must, and it will cause riots when the plans are announced, just as has happened in Wisconsin and England.
The states’ plight, is the result of decades of governmental and political stupidity. The same is true with the D.C. deficit and huge debt. The Congress consists of 435 imbeciles, the Senate 100 morons, and the White House one subversive, who is ineligible to be there. Of late, close to a hundred have been replaced by Tea Party Congressmen and women, and a few in the Senate, who are going to change things as best they can until next year, when we hope things will radically change. Can the debt ever be repaid, other than with printing press money? No, because it’s too big. It’s so big, that the amount is incomprehensible…to anyone…literally. Close to $200 TRILLION dollars in already promised benefits and handouts. There isn’t a dime in the Social Security fund. Only worthless promises from government. The dollar is being printed by the billions, and grows weaker by the day. Still, there is hope. A small glimmer of possibility, depending on the outcome of the next election. The next election, is probably the most important one in American history.
The next election, will determine if the American dollar can maintain its status as the world’s reserve currency, which, believe me, is of the utmost importance. The next election, will determine if we as a nation can survive. Survive without endless wars which accomplish nothing, and have bankrupted us. The next election, could trim the welfare rolls, get rid of czars, worthless bureaucracies, and tens of thousands of worthless bureaucrats who feed off of us. The next election, could totally reverse the course of America, which has veered and strayed left for the past 78 years. It’s time to stop all this, and bring American jobs back, reduce taxes, balance the budget, bring the troops home, defeat Obamacare, and eventually get rid of all the nonsense which has polluted the American mind and politic for so long.
Government has no Constitutional authority to subsidize anyone or anything, nor is there any Constitutional authority for Social Security, Medicare, endless bureaucracy, and wars entered into without Congressional approval. It’s got to stop, or we are assured of becoming a third world nation. To help, the best way I can think of, is to go to www.teapartypatriots.org, and send them some money. I have, several times.
P.S. Is there such a thing as a Caucasian Muslim? If not, why are undergoing frisking at the hands of the TSA when we want to fly? My best friend’s 82 year old mother was strip searched, which is totally outrageous and revolting.
