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.
Each and every one of us is an indentured servant. We are indentured by our government. The biggest difference between Americans today and the indentured servants in Europe during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance is that those indentured servants actually had a specified term for their servitude (read: slavery). Americans don’t. Our government owns us. You don’t think so? You think I’m full of crap? Riiiigghht. You keep thinking that, Buckwalter! Imagine that you have paid off your house or you have a bare, unimproved piece of property that you own outright. Now, just let it sit there. When that property tax bill comes, just throw it away. Don’t pay it. When the next notice comes, ignore it. It won’t be very long before that government (that you think doesn’t own you and everything you have) will be putting a lien on your property, and then they’ll put it up for auction. If it’s unimproved land out in the middle of nowhere, you’re tax bill is probably $50 a year or some insignificant amount. But the government will take your land that is worth possibly hundreds or thousands of times the tax amount and sell it to the highest bidder (usually for less than the property is worth) to get that $50 that they TELL YOU they are ENTITLED to. Yeah…the government doesn’t own you and all your stuff. You keep thinking that.
Is there anything that you can do without being taxed by the government? I challenge you to respond to this post and inform me of what it is. By the way, if they tax it, fundamentally that means that you don’t own it. They LET you own it.
Take a look at the link below. When you read it, look at the industries that are swapping “help” for huge portions and control of those industries. The government already owns the industries. With these huge payouts, the government is paying hush money to these industries. The money is being used to keep the industries quiet while the government takes overt control of them. Time will tell whether our government will relent and let the industries appear to control themselves once again.

Now tell me, with all the BS conviction that you can, that the government doesn’t own EVERYTHING. We have let our government get so big that we exist to feed the government machine. We are supposed to control the government, but we are now letting the government control us. WAKE UP, AMERICA! Take care of yourself! Quit looking to the government for everything. Once we do that, we can roll back the insidious taxes and start living a more free life. A life that doesn’t exist to support the government.
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.

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.
Since I am the Arizona Carnivore, it’s pretty obvious I’m in AZ. There is a website here that is organizing a tea party event for April 15. I would urge everyone, whether in AZ or not, to go join a tea party. Let your voice be heard. My greatest fear is that this movement will die down after April 15th. We need to continue to carry the message forward. For me, this is not something that goes away once my tax return is filed. I hope you feel the same way.
I have provided a link to the AZ tea party site. They have linked a video blog to the page that I think everyone should watch. I was first introduced to this guy’s video blogs about 3 days before the last presidential election. His arguements are most compelling. www.arizonateaparty.com/site/index-3.html
It’s very easy to get confused on how we got into this mess. I got this from a friend and I thought it helped explain our current economic state such that anyone over about 16 years old should be able to understand it. This doesn’t squarely place blame. That’s not what this is about. You can draw your own conclusions on who is at fault. If, after reading this, you still don’t understand. Don’t worry about it. You’re a liberal and always will be. Read on. Read more…
I can’t take credit for this, but I thought it funny and scarily appropriate.

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.
