So, is the stimulus package working to help raise our economy out of the recession it’s been in? I don’t think so. What has happened to change the course of the recession is our President, Barack Hussein Obama has finally shut the hell up. All the Chicken Little, the sky is falling bunk that he and his administration was spewing was at best keeping the recession at the state it was in, but at worst made the recession worse than it was going to be. Did you hear me? The stimulus package did not slow nor stop the recession. The recession turned around on it’s own. Case to point, this document, based on a CBO study, states that only 25% of the stimulus money will be spent by the end of 2009. It’s June 2009 right now. It would be safe to say that not more than 12.5% of the stimulus money has been spent so far. But the economy is turning around. http://rutledgecapital.com/2009/06/03/how-much-of-the-stimulus-money-has-already-been-spent/
The next step is to write, call or fax your Senators and Congressmen and tell them to stop the rest of the stimulus payouts. It is NOT needed. All it do is drive us into debt that our children’s children will be paying off. Use this link to find Congressional contact information. http://www.usa.gov/Contact/Elected.shtml You can use this to contact the President and Vice President as well, but I think that would be a waste of time, effort and resources. Their track record has shown that they don’t care what the American people think/desire.
Some may have seen this already. It was sent to me and I thought it should be posted here and as many places as it can be. I’m not sure who the author is. First this was funny THEN you realize the awful truth of it.
The Tax Poem
Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table
At which he’s fed.
Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes

There are differing opinions on whether global warming (now called climate change as there have been scientific observations of global cooling) exists or doesn’t. And if it does exist, what’s mankind’s part in making it worse. I have contended from the earliest days of conversation on the topic that the earth goes thru cyclical changes and these changes don’t occur over the span of a few years. The changes occur over hundreds and/or thousands of years. There were two articles on Saturday on the topic. One is about how Congress is considering far-reaching legislation that would ultimately increase everyone’s spending on energy as Congress is contemplating putting huge taxes and fees on energy companies. Of course, these fees will be passed on to the consumer, You! http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/04/18/congress-considers-far-reaching-global-warming/
On the same day that that article came out, a second article was available on the same website that claims that the Antartic ice shelf is actually expanding. Yes, getting bigger! Because it’s colder! http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,517035,00.html
This is the next cash cow. Everyone jump on board if you can stomach it. I, personally, would have a hard time making money off of a lie. I’m just funny that way I guess. I don’t believe in fleecing anyone. But Al Gore doesn’t have a conscious. He has made over $100M on scaring people into thinking that global warming exists. He owns huge stakes in companies that sell carbon credits. Feel bad about all the emissions from your plane trip to see family over spring break? No problem. Buy carbon credits from one of fat Al’s companies and they’ll plant a tree for you so you can feel like you’re “carbon neutral”.
I’m telling you. If you can get right with it, there’s alot of money to be made here.
