Obamacare, Terrorism, Bankruptcy

 

Donald Trump explains Obamacare perfectly, in one simple paragraph. “Let me get this straight.  We’re going to be ’gifted’ with a health care plan we are forced to purchase, and fined if we don’t, which purportedly covers at least 10 million more people, without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents, who have recently demonstrated their objective and professional integrity. This law was written by a committee,,, whose chairman says he doesn’t understand it, passed by a Congress that didn’t read it, but exempted themselves from it.  It had to be passed so that they could see what was in it.  It  was signed by  President who smokes.  Funding administered by a Treasury Chief who didn’t pay his taxes, and we will be taxed for four years before any benefits take effect.  It has been made law by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security, Medicare, Fanny Mae, Freddie Mack, and the post office, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that is broke!!!”

 

Now for part two.  The TV and newspapers are full of terrorism around the world.  Two days ago in Lebanon, an embassy was blown to bits,  20 killed with dozens more injured.  Credit was taken by a Taliban Muslim group.  America has seen fit to institute a terribly wasteful and silly “Homeland Security” bureaucracy.  The TSA drives us to insanity before we can board an airliner.  Why?  Because they don’t want to have a terrorist blow up the plane.  The cost of supposedly ’protecting’ us from terrorism, is in the trillions of declining dollars.  Has there ever been a terrorist stopped from boarding an American plane by the TSA?  No.  The Muslim who had a bomb in his shoe boarded in another land, and the Muslim who was going to blow up Times Square, failed. 

 

The simple point of this brief column is simply this:  Terrorists are all Muslims!  They rightfully resent Americans in their lands, as we would if they invaded us.  I think I am accurate about terrorists being Muslims.  Were the Boston bombers Muslims?  Yes.  Name one terrorist attack that was not attributed to a Muslim.  The Oklahoma federal building, might be an exception, but America has not been given a straight story on that one.  Muslims take great delight in killing each other.  The Sunnis endlessly kill the Shiites and reverse.  Muslims who kill an ’infidel’ are promised instant paradise and lots of virgins.  No other religion on earth, kills and murders as do Muslims.  All other religions abhor murder and killing.

 

If then, all terrorists seem to be Muslims, and Muslims seem to be of an Arabic nation with dark skin, Arabic features and names, why not realize that if we are going to be terrorized and bankrupted for protecting us from them, for goodness sakes stop their motives, which are ultra simple.  Keep our troops home, bring them home, declare neutrality, and eliminate the TSA and Department of Homeland Security, at a savings of this those two bureaucracies, of hundreds of millions of dollars per year, not counting the trillion dollar cost for Afghanistan and Iraq.  It’s all so utterly simple.  Muslims are terrorists, easily identified by skin color and name.  Stop prohibiting toothpaste and pocket knives on airplanes, and get RID of the TSA.  Declare neutrality, bring everyone home, balance the budget and get rid of Homeland Security.  Simple.

 

                        Stocks and the Economy

 

The stock market continues to go up.  Will it crash?  I have no idea, but I do know this.  Credit for the stock market reaching new highs, is given to the Federal Reserve, who is printing $85 billion a month, and that is also keeping interest rates low.  Look at simple arithmetic and history.  Any nation in history, who has had un-backed paper money, has seen their currency go to zero.  No exceptions. It has happened here three times already.  (1) During the revolution, so many Continental dollars were printed to fight the war, that the Continental dollar went to zero.  That’s where the old expression, “Not worth a continental” originated. (2) During the War Between The States, the South printed Confederate dollars endlessly, to pay for their side of the war, and they became worthless.  (3) The North printed so many Greenback dollars, that they also became worthless.  Zimbabwe did the same, and I have a “One Hundred Trillion Zimbabwe Dollar” note, dated 2008.  I has always happened.  In Germany, in 1924, if you ordered a cup of coffee in a restaurant, a refill might have cost more, so fast was the currency debasing.

 

We constantly hear of “little or no inflation” from government, but their accounting doesn’t count food or fuel, assuming they don’t cook the figures to make themselves look good, which I am certain they do.  They lie about everything.  How can a nation print $85 billion un-backed paper dollar a month, and not be on the road to hyper-inflation?  It can’t.  America is following, in lock step, the well worn trail of all the past nations whose currency went to zero.  Their governments lied to them, like ours lies to us.  They printed to pay their absurd bills, and we do too.  The results have always been the same. Those who held un-backed currencies lost everything they had.  In past national bankruptcies, the inflation proceeded slowly at first, peppered with that nation’s governmental lies and empty assurances.  It gradually increased, and it became runaway…always the same script.  America’s government in Washington D.C. has learned it’s lines well; copying from past national bankruptcies.  Unfortunately, its citizens are not aware of the playbill, and are saving in declining dollars, without a clue, as in all past national bankruptcies.  In the past, a few got out of those doomed currencies, and got into tangibles of some sort, to escape the failing currencies.  A few in America are doing just that with historic, tangible money in the form of gold and silver.  For thousands of years, gold and silver have been real, tangible money, with no need of a government to back them.  They are self backed.  Metals which are easily stored, bought, sold, and convertible into currencies, when currencies are needed.  That’s why my son David, daughter Melissa, and daughter in law Morgen, and me are here.  Nuf said?
