We authorized $700B to be used to help take care of bad mortgages.  The government gave money to banks.  Some banks didn’t want the money and were coerced into taking it.  In fact, an acquaintance at Chase stated that the $25B that they received was set aside.  Chase didn’t need the money and is just going to hold on to it.  Now we have Obama and his minions looking to put a $1 trillion stimulus in play.  The stimulus package is nothing more than a way to get a large chunk of the private sector sucking on the government tit.  A large chunk of the money are actually earmarks.  Why do we need the government spending this money?  Instead of taking money (that we don’t have) and doling it out like dope dealer to an addict, why can’t the government cut our taxes and let us spend the extra money that we have where we see fit?  This would have a direct, speedy impact on families and the economy.  I’ll tell you why.  Because the current government wants to rule your life and tell you what you can and can’t do.  These tax cuts should be across the board.  Not mainly for people who don’t pay taxes anyway.  Tax burden of $0 – $1000 tax cut = $1000 refund check.  But the refund check is someone else’s money.  This is Obama’s redistribution of wealth that he so smugly talked of with Joe the plumber, but it’s in disguise, buried in the tax code. 

First it’s the nationalization of banks.  Next comes national (universal) health care.  Once these two things are in place, we are done.  We will have become just like a western European social democracy (emphasis on social).  If I wanted to live in the UK or France, I’d move there.

I would urge each and every one of you to call you Senators and Congressmen.  Tell them to not support the $1 trillion stimulus package that is making its way through Congress.  We can not afford it!  Where will the money come from?  More importantly, where will it go?  This stimulus package is a huge piece of pork.  History has proven that we cannot spend our way out of a recession.  Please write emails, make phone calls, send faxes.  Tell your Senators to filibuster this piece of garbage.

The Democrats are drunk with power.  They are making statements that show they don’t care what anyone else thinks.  We, the people, need to tell them to quit spending OUR MONEY!!!  Especially when they don’t even have it to spend.
