It seems to me as long as we allow people to print up fiat money there will be no place in the world where freedom can flourish.
If the Globalist oppose your efforts, paid for with real hard earned money, all they have to do is fire up the presses and shovel the money to any group that will oppose you.
Not only that but it seems they do it in such a way that the money to achieve THEIR goals is borrowed from them. Then we pay interest to a group outside of our country, like the Federal Reserve, on the creation and borrowing of OUR OWN money.
IN ESSENCE THEY BEAT US WITH OUR OWN STICK!
Why do people not understand that we are not born with guaranteed nannies, just the freedom to try and create opportunity...unless social agendas like cap and trade shackle those future opportunities.
I hope the American people are beginning to wake up and realize what a terrible mistake we, as a nation, have made. I fear the Constitution truly is hanging by a thread.
If you want constitutionally limited government, RON PAUL is the only true option. Romney supporters come to the reality that he supported the 1rst set of bailouts, wanted Washington to be a partner with Detroit before deciding that maybe he didn't, is for increasing Amercian forces policing the world etc..ad nauseam
Take the red pill!
That is so funny you said that. Right before coming on here, I noticed some liberal comments on another thread and thought how interesting that most liberals throw nasty insults with no substance instead of seriously debating the issues. They figure if they call conservatives embarrassing names, then people will be afraid of those labels and quickly move left.
Research, documentation, history, substance...these things tell a story because not everything is relative. There are a few absolutes out there and our founding fathers did the research to discover what those are for political balance and freedom.
I would imagine that you yourself do not like it when people assume things about you, yet you yourself make a very grand assumption, thinking you can just embarrass people into shutting up so you can get your free stuff.
You really think that socialism will work? Please, tell me WHERE IT HAS EVER WORKED???
It has NEVER WORKED... ANYWHERE..
Every country that has tried it has failed and either fallen, or gotten their act together.
You seem to think that we will go quietly into the night, however you are very wrong. We will not be silenced by the likes of you, spending money that does not exist to solve problems that also do not exist.
Just because someone wants something, does not mean it is a problem for everyone else. It is THAT PERSONS PROBLEM, and no one else. That is freedom baby!
"You really think that socialism will work? Please, tell me WHERE IT HAS EVER WORKED???"
Where has capitalism worked without regulation? Remember the Long Depression of the 1890's and thirty years later there was the Great Depression? Before these there was the Trusts, robber barons, slavery, child labor, sweat shops, inflected meat, government troops shooting workers and Joe Hill.
You teabeggers. This single American has to pay more taxes to rise your kids and to support your marriages? Did you whine about the 3.2 billion the rest of us paid for Utah's 15 mins. of fame in 2002?
We Americans outside Utah; let welfare ranchers graze below market value. We let mining companies take our ore without paying royalties and we pay to fight wildfires. Utahans get $1.28 for each dollar you pay in federal taxes. Us Californians don't get back a dollar for a dollar.
Cry me a river.
Back to socialism. Did Fox New tell you than the Japanese auto industry's research and development was and is government founded? Did government work?
The truth is, Reagan, Bush, and Bush expanded government spending and created record deficits. Clinton balanced the budget. Obama's stated goal is to balance the budget before he leaves office. Those are the facts the Christian conservative extremist media does not talk about. Which is the fiscally responsible party of the past 30 years?
PS. Has another conservative christian extremist who preaches to Americans about morality cheated on his wife yet this weekend? Check the local parks, I'm sure you will find several.
If so many want socialized health care then why are they willing to waste their money on an insurance premium that does not guarantee socialized health care?
We can blame the news media for lack of turnout because they too want socialism. The news media never once published any information about a 'Tea' party rebellion. And only limit their story to humiliate and call them dissenters. Remember people, it was those dissenters that died for our freedoms and wrote our constitution.
In writing our constitution they left out socialism and its programs for a reason, to allow all to earn their keep. Like Hitler, Obama is using the poor and the word free to further the cause of socialism.
The real problem with american people is they are not organized to fight for what they deserve, and they deserve better pay and wages so they can afford to pay for their own health care and food.
PS: The total debt is 99 Trillion, with all the government programs...ALL, So stop pointing fingers at who did what...We need to Stop Spending...figure out how to get out of this mess...before we loose our country.
