they propose increased government spending when the prediction is that we are going into a recession, or even maybe a depression ?

I wonder who is going to pay for all these perks.

  1. That is one MAJOR reason why it is idiotic to vote for Obama.  That is lunacy.

    canada...and you believe radical liberal media outlets who sensationalize and sell copies and timeslots by demonizing America.  They claim that they torture detainees in GITMO, too.  That is a joke.  A close friend of mine was on leave from GITMO last month.  He told me about the conditions there.  The prisoners eat better than our soldiers in the field.  It is rather pathetic how much they coddle these pigs and have to put up with from them.


  2. Well, you can thank President Bush and his Trillion dollar bungle in Iraq for that.

    It's sort of strange that Democrats have been more fiscally responsible in the last twenty years than Republicans. Republican politicians are steadfastly denying that we're even close to a recession, as if burying their heads in the sand will make the problem go away.

  3. Money.

    Power.

    It's all about getting into power, staying there, and milking us out of our tax dollars. The politicians are beholden to the lobbyists, special interest groups, and multinational corporations. In the politician's quest to retain power, which takes money and the media, they cater not to the American taxpayer, but to the corporations and other groups that fund their campaigns.

    The politicians, the media, the "banksters", and the corporations are all running a big game on us.

    It's a long story, but basically it comes down to this...

    We've been duped.

    We're all running around arguing "left" vs. "right" like either side is going to change things. We need to realize that it's not about left-right any more. It's about the elite vs. the common citizen... you know, the way it inevitably always ends up... throughout history.

    People in the future looking back at us are going to think we were the dumbest group of citizens ever...

    We're running around waving our flags, shouting "We're free! We're free!" while they take way all our rights. We have 1 1/2 times as many people in jail as China, when they have 5 times the population and are considered a totalitarian police state. I bet the whole world is laughing at us.

    They're convincing us to be terrified of "terrorists" when you are more likely to win a million bucks in the lottery than to be killed by a terrorist.

    They're fretting over 3rd world nations with no navy or airforce, while spending more money on our armed forces than all the other nations on earth combined.

    They're bankrupting our nation while borrowing money from communist nations who used to be considered our biggest enemies.

    What it boils down to is the corporate/political elite are fleecing our country around us... while we vote them in AGAIN with big smiles on our faces.

    We have a 90% reelection rate in our Congress, even though things get worse and worse every year. The Soviets had a 92% reelection rate and they only had one party!

    We live in a fascist police state controlled by a small group of wealthy elite.

    Our media is owned by this same small group of people. Our media has turned into an Orwellian mind control device meant to keep us in the dark... and entertained... so we don't care what they are doing to us until it is too late.

    What it all boils down to is this...

    We are ruled by the corporation and the wealthy elite that own these corporations.

    It's not "Of the people, by the people, for the people..." any more.

    It's "Of the corporation, by the corporation, for the corportation."

    FASCISM.

    Some critics equate too much corporate power and influence with fascism. Often they cite a quote claimed to be from Mussolini: "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power."

    Mussolini was not the only one to recognize this. Franklin D. Roosevelt in an April 29, 1938 message to Congress warned that the growth of private power could lead to fascism:

    "The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism--ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power."

    We are in a fascist state. The quicker people get around to realizing this... the quicker we can fix it. But they don't even realize it's happening because our "news" media is owned by the same corporate powers.

    George Orwell would love to see this sh*t.

    No matter which of the corporate-selected candidates get into office, the average American taxpayer will be SCREWED.

    Check out this video presentation. It explains exactly why our system is BROKEN, and why neither party is going to change it...

    Oh, and we're going to pay for the perks.  The American taxpayer.  The next decade is going to make the 70's look like a cakewalk.

    My understand is that our leaders are driving the value of the dollor down so that they can redo the currency and make it into something called the Amero ie Mexico, America, Canada all in one currency.

    I am just shocked that our media has not said anything to the public about it. Then again our leaders have taken over ever asset so that they can say and do as they please,,, IRAQ ring a bell?
