The word “AID” always means help of some kind or other. Our church has about 20 missionaries it gives aid to every month, and of course ’First Aid’ is an old expression, dating back to the eleventh century. But I wish to examine the word ’aid’ from a 78 year period, and look at what that word has done to us, and in reality other nations, such as Greece, Portugal, Spain, and Ireland. The aid was given for supposed humanistic reasons, but in the main it was to garner votes from, the recipients.
Old people can’t care for themselves? They need aid. Let’s force them to save with a government program we will call “Social Security.” That was the beginning. It was supposed to put the forced savings into a lockbox, which could never be touched, and dispersed upon the participant’s old age, to help him through his final years. I’m not going to preach to the choir about this Ponzi Scheme, other than to mention that there is no lockbox, all the dollars have been substituted for T-bills, and the whole thing is a gigantic insurance, actuarial impossibility. Old people had cared for themselves for thousands of years before Social Security got FDR re-elected.
Poor people can’t house themselves? They need aid. Let’s build public housing and destroy neighborhoods simultaneously. Let’s let lazy, stupid, indolent people live in them rent free and destroy them in about 20 years. Let’s let women give birth to as many as 24 babies from numerous sperm donors, with an increase in her check for every live birth, all of which will turn out to be disasters as has she.
People can’t feed themselves? They need aid. Lets give them free food with food stamps. Let’s give aid for their prescriptions, heating, and transportation, Foreign nations can’t help themselves? They need aid. Let’s give them foreign aid for $25 billion a year in every nation except Antarctica. Poor little Korea can’t defend itself from those nasty North Koreans? They need aid. Let’s send hundreds of thousands of Americans there to give them aid, killing 50,000, and station 27,000 troops in Korea for over 50 years. Vietnam can’t defend itself? They need aid. Fine! Let’s send hundreds of thousands of troops over there and kill 59,000 Americans, plus emotional and physical injuries which will last them for their entire life. Hang the cost, we have to spread democracy.
People can’t care for themselves? They need aid. Let’s give them Medicare and foster a whole new industry of nursing homes where government will pay for them to rot away in senility. 9/11 was a fraud as most intelligent people now realize, (where was the plane at the Pentagon?), so let’s blame it on Iraq and invade it, killing hundreds of thousands of innocents, and basically destroying a nation to save it. Don’t like Quadaffi in Libya? Rebels need aid. Let’s bomb his nation and infrastructure to smithereens, with no Congressional approval, have a President say “It is not a war,” and then say that tattered, stupid, unorganized rebels now are a ’government authority.’ Quadaffi has been in power in Libya for 43 years.
Can’t afford a home? You need aid. Barney Frank will tell the banks, Fannie and Freddie to finance your heart’s dream with no money down, and no credit report. Doesn’t matter whether you can afford it or not, we’ll see to it that you have that house. You say that made housing prices go up far beyond what they are worth? That caused the housing market to crash? That’s life I guess. Sugar and dairy farmers need aid? We’ll provide taxpayer price supports for them.
We, the middle and upper classes need aid to free us from all the aid given to everyone else! “We’re broke,” you say? You say you won’t give us Social Security recipients a raise, even though you’ve caused our dollars to lose value? You say, “We’re sorry, and we’ll have to raise taxes to pay our bills?” Cut spending? “We can’t do that, because we’d lose the next election.” Obama has raised the national debt in two years more than any President in history, and dumb Republicans are too chicken to stop him and his Democrats. All taxes are theft, and rather than stop the spending and incredible waste, the repiblicrats want to raise taxes to cover their misdeeds. Hooray for Michelle Bachman, who vows to vote NO on any such bill.
So it all comes down to the end of this horror movie. It began in 1933, or maybe even a few decades earlier, when the income tax and Federal Reserve were started. All this ’aid’ given to everyone for everything, and pointless wars, has bankrupted us, and weakened us to a point where we could be compared to a domesticated animal, who, if put out in the wild would starve or be eaten. Over the past 78 years, millions lived who should have died, and millions live today who shouldn’t be alive. They’re alive because the producers have been robbed to keep their miserable selves eating and living, and it has come to the point where the bills can’t be paid. Those alive who shouldn’t be alive, have the voting power to totally destroy a once proud nation. When you steal from the producers to give to the non producers, you get fewer producers, and more non producers. The non producers probably will finish America’s annihilation, which Republicans and Democrats caused. Protect yourself, is all I can say, and send money to the Tea Party.
P.S. The euro may be in greater danger than the buck. Italy owes two trillion euros, Greece, Portugal, Ireland, and Spain all are in the same fix as are we, and the strong euro nations such as Germany, are sick and tired of having to bail them out. Greece just got another last minute infusion, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Germany got off, and maybe France too, which would kill the euro, and make gold and silver go through the roof, as will also happen when the S&P and Moody lowers America’s rating.
