Are you as defined below?

Simple Analogy

An economics professor at a local college made the statement that he had never failed a single student before but had once failed an entire class.

That class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on socialism. All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A.

After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.

The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.

As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.

The second test average was a D! No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.

All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.

It could not be any simpler than that.

So, knowing this now, what are you prepared to do?

As always, thank you for reading and do continue to share the blog with your friends and family AND liberals too.

Birthdate deception - OBAMA

president Obama told a Selma audience that the 1965 March on Selma resulted in his conception.

Obama was born in August of 1961............

If you disagree, YOU are anti-human and anti-personal achievement!!!

What a profound short little paragraph that says it all

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for,that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

Did you know that whites are born as racist according to Newsweek?

So, what does this mean? Poor blacks again, disenfranchised, slaves, what? Will Obama invite the family of the "white" student for a beer, start an investigation into why blacks are allowed to just beat up on whites and is not considered a hate crime? In all of this, where was the bus driver?

A Belleville West High School student was beaten aboard a bus on the way to school Monday, and a police spokesman said the beating could be racially motivated.

The 17-year-old victim was white and the teen assailants were black. Police released a video of the beating, which shows the victim being punched repeatedly while other students on the bus gather to watch, some cheering. It doesn't appear that the victim did anything to provoke an attack and tried only to defend himself. Police said it all unfolded in a five-minute span.

The victim was trying to find a seat and was told by two students he could not sit next to them, police said.

As he walked to the seat, someone shouted, "Beat his ass."

When he did sit down, one teen tried to push him out of his seat then began grabbing the victim’s neck and punching him in the face.

With each punch, some in the crowd chanted, "Boom, boom, boom."

The victim eventually returned to his seat, but another student began taunting him a few minutes later. The victim was then struck in the face.

It was unclear what, if anything, the bus driver did to stop the attack. At one point, before the second attack, a man shouts, "Sit down guys."

Students intervened to help the victim both times.

"In my estimation, it's racially motivated," said Capt. Don Sax of the Belleville Police Department. He said one reason he had formed this opinion was that many of the students, most of whom were black, yelled their support for the beating.

"There was absolutely no justification for the beating either time," Sax said.

Two teens were taken into custody; authorities will apply for charges today. Both students have been suspended, said Superintendent Greg Moats.

He also said there had been no racial problems at the school and said that he wanted to talk further with police to determine why they believe race could have been a motivator in the fight. He also said the school will do everything possible to make sure students are safe, but he wouldn't elaborate. Rating :

Another black man Obama appointee allowed to use expletives, Imagine if this was a white citizen,hmmmmm!

Watch the link and wonder what the democrats will do if this was (A) a republican and (B) a white person? How do you think the democrats and and libs, your basic anti america group will respond?

Soon he (Obama) will have his civillian army. Tyranny is where we are headed. What good qualification does this man, this czar even have? He is an admitted communist.

Have you been stimulated or destimulated....Bernanke decides!

This article was written by Barbara Cohen of the Tycoon Report

Hail Bernanke: Those in Foreclosure Salute You!

This week, we saw Ben Bernanke "re-anointed" for another four years.

President Barack "Change" Obama, in his heartfelt speech, thanked Bernanke for his "bold action and out-of-the-box thinking that has helped put the brakes on our economic freefall," for bringing "our economy back from the brink" and for building a "new foundation for growth and prosperity."

Hail Bernanke!

But let's take a good look at Bernanke's report card for just the past year and see whether his actions truly merit another four years at the helm.

1. Acknowledged unemployment -- 9.4%.

This does not take into consideration the millions who are underemployed and would like to be full-time employees, or those who simply cannot find work and have fallen off the unemployment rosters even though they've still searching for a job.

In April, the real unemployment number was roughly 15%, but now exceeds 20%.

2. I came. I saw. I foreclosed.

Here are some startling housing facts from the FDIC Web page:

One out of every 200 homes will be foreclosed upon.

Every three months, 250,000 new families enter foreclosure.

One child in every classroom is at risk of losing his or her home.

A slower real estate market translates into lower home values. Homeowners with adjustable-rate mortgages find that, as their mortgage rate adjusts higher, their home value is lower and therefore refinancing is no longer an option.

Six out of 10 homeowners wished they had understood the terms of their mortgage better.

A new category of home sales arose called "short sales," where the sale price of the home is far less than the mortgage needed to be created.

3. The national median existing-home price -- $178,400 in July 2009.

The value of the average home is down 15.1 percent from July 2008. Total housing inventory at the end of July rose 7.3 percent to 4.09 million existing homes available for sale, representing a 9.4-month supply at the current sales pace.

4. National debt cap will need to rise.

Congress will raise the legal limit later this year, according to Treasury officials. The cap the government can borrow from public or foreign creditors is limited by law to $12.1 trillion.

Treasury officials are already expecting to borrow an additional $892 billion through the end of 2009, driving the overall debt past the cap sometime in the fourth quarter.

As of Aug. 29, 2009, at 3 p.m. GMT, the outstanding debt now stands at $11,732,133,791,514.90.

5. $700 billion in 'TARP' money awarded to banks. Carpe Diem or, in this case, Carpe TARP!

Officials overseeing the bailout charged the Treasury with dereliction of duty for failure to ensure taxpayer dollars are properly spent. Many of the 364 banks that received TARP funds co-mingled the money with existing funds and had no proper accountability

Now, 18 banks who received funds didn't make dividend payments due on preferred shares from the Capital Purchase Program.


Number of bank failures so far this year -- 84. This includes another three on Friday, Aug. 29 in Maryland, Minnesota and California.

Disposable personal spending decreased by $4.6 billion in July alone.

Real Gross Domestic Product, the output of goods and services produced by labor and property located in the United States, decreased at an annual rate of 1.0 percent in the second quarter. It was forecast to rise 0.2%.

Even those willing to drink Obama's Kool-Aid can't give Bernanke anything but low grades. These actions can hardly be called "bold action and out-of-the-box thinking," let alone build a "new foundation for growth and prosperity

3,900 Stimulus Checks Went to Prison Inmates

A mistake or democrats loking for voters?

The federal government sent about 3,900 economic stimulus payments of $250 each this spring to people who were in no position to use the money to help stimulate the economy: prison inmates.

What Obama said.......hmmmm!

He actually stated, “If you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. It’s the Post Office that’s always having problems.”

Does the inner Obama actually favor private health-care and this statement was a Freudian slip?

I am of the belief that Obama is heavily under the influence of extremely wealthy people who are hell bent on destroying our country, people like George Soros, movements like moveon.org etc.

Join or be a wimp and sit on the side line and complain. Folks, we need to get involved here, our voices need to be heard.

Thanks for reading and as always, notify friends and family about this blog and spread the word to save our country.

Did you know this?

Government insurance is what’s in trouble today.

Medicare is in the hole by about $40 trillion on a discounted present-value basis over the next 40 or 50 years. And if we’re going to equate government care to government mail, according to Steve Hayes of the Weekly Standard, the U.S. Postal Service is going bankrupt with a $7 billion net loss this year. With 633,000 career employees, the Post Office won’t be able to make $5.4 billion in retiree health-benefit payments. How many of these federal employees will populate the new government-backed insurance plan if it passes?

World leaders creating tyranny...BELIEVE IT!!!

'Incompetent' Leaders Pose Threat to Recovery: 'Black Swan'
Published: Wednesday, 12 Aug 2009 | 9:36 AM ET Text Size By: CNBC.com
Incompetent policymakers are to blame for a financial crisis that will continue until substantial changes are made, author Nassim Taleb, known as the "Black Swan," told CNBC.

Nassim Taleb
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Taleb, principal at Universa Investments and coiner of the "Black Swan" term to explain drastic, unpredictable events, said in a live interview that choking debt, continued high unemployment and a system that rewards bad behavior will hamstring an economic recovery.

"It is a matter of risk and responsibility, and I think the risks that were there before, these problems are still there," he said. "We still have a very high level of debt, we still have leadership that's literally incompetent ..."

"They did not see the problem, the don't look at the core of problem. There's an elephant in the room and they did not identify it."


Taleb said policymakers need to begin converting debt into equity but instead are continuing the programs that created the financial crisis.

"I don't think that structural changes have been addressed," he said. "It doesn't look like they're fully aware of the problem, or they're overlooking it because they don't want to take hard medicine."

With Bernanke's term running out, Taleb said Obama would be making a mistake by reappointing the Fed chairman.



"Bernanke belongs to a school of economics that is not in synch with the complex system," he said. "By having Bernanke there you're rewarding failure."

Taleb has earned a reputation as a market bear and sage following the publication of his 2007 book, "The Black Swan," that in part warned that banks were susceptible to failures beyond what models could predict—hence, a "black swan" type of rarity. The collapse of the financial system happened shortly thereafter.

He said he doesn't consider himself a pessimist, but is worried about a system that provides tax breaks to failing businesses and rewards, through the "Cash for Clunkers" program, people who bought gas-guzzling vehicles and don't want them anymore.

"It's not pessimism. I'm warning against a lack of understanding of the disease," Taleb said. "Now sometimes you see patients doing very well and they have cancer. Long-term, I'm not comfortable treating a patient for his headaches when he has lung cancer."

How your government lies to you

I love it when hypocrites get caught telling lies, don’t you? The look of fear in their eyes when the web of deceit comes tumbling down. I know I shouldn’t, but I do get a bit of pleasure out of the whole thing.

Just last week, the Wall Street Journal highlighted a huge lie.

Believe it or not, it came from our esteemed leaders in Congress. They’re spending like drunken sailors on shore leave. Then they turn around and hand the good taxpayers (you and me) the bill.

Nancy Pelosi and crew just allocated half a billion dollars for new luxury jets for Congress. This comes just months after tarring and feathering CEOs for using private jets to attend Congressional hearings.

Seems kind of two-sided, don’t you think?

Here’s where the lies start… our members of Congress all claim to support fiscal responsibility. But, they sure don’t act like it. The Defense Department says they don’t need these new jets. Since when is spending $550 million on something you don’t need fiscally responsible? I call that a lie.

Who appointed whom....?

Fellow Americans, did the politicians hire us or did we the people hire them? If you agree that we hired them then what are your doing about it? Join me and become a voice and hold these rectless idiots accountable. Let them know that they work for us.

How the USA lies to us citizens. See if you can find the lie in this statement.

“It is critically important that Congress act before the [debt] limit is reached,” Tim Geithner wrote over the weekend in a letter to lawmakers, “so that citizens and investors here and around the world can remain confident that the United States will always meet its obligations."

Sounds like our Treasury Secretary is finally putting his foot down, insisting that Congress pull back its lavish spending programs and start addressing our incredible $11.6 trillion national debt.

Wait… what’s that? Oh, Geithner’s actually asking for Congress to raise the debt ceiling. If Congress authorizes our government to dig deeper than $12.1 trillion in debt (our current glass ceiling) our partners here and abroad will somehow “remain confident.” How perverse is that?

Save your country and join to become a voice or be a wimp and sit on the side line while you leave nothing of this country to your children.

Another bank.......I thought the recession is ending

It’s Monday… time to check in on the annual bank failure tally: Two in Florida and one in Oregon bit the dust over the weekend. That brings the 2009 running total to 72. The three took a $185 million chunk from the FDIC’s war chest. So far this year, the agency has lost over $15 billion from its bank insurance fund.

You had better learn to ride a bicycle, Obama orders....hmm

The U.S. budget deficit rose $181 billion in July, to a record $1.3 trillion, the Congressional Budget Office reported over the weekend. You know the drill by now… tax receipts are plunging while bailout spending is soaring. In budget parlance, revenues in this fiscal year are down 17% while outlays are up 21%.

That’s a $530 billion increase in spending from fiscal 2008.

The CBO still projects the government budget deficit to exceed $1.8 trillion, about four times 2008’s record $455 deficit. More to come tomorrow, when the Treasury unveils official budget numbers.

Folks, the time is now. Join us or sit on the side line like a wimp. Do something for your country, your children and their future.

Govt secrets and public surprise,hmmmmm!

Folks, c'mon, the govt controlled media are at it again, social engineering: Bill Clinton makes surprise visit to North Korea. Wow! Do you really believe that? For this to be true, fmr. pres. Clinton had to charter a flight and just fly to North Korea or did he fly on a commercial flight and arrive unannounced at the quarters of the little pork belly pres of North Korea? It is a secret visit remember!!!

Wake up, wake up. The govt. knew all along that he was going, he was told to go. Security was arranged and the evil little pork belly pres of North Korea was told that Clinton was coming, while his wife is in Kenya looking for the actual birth certificate, what a crok.

Stop allowing the media to allow this deceit and assault on us citizens folks.

Thanks for reading. Share the news and write your comments. You need to take action and stop being quiet. You owe it t your children.

For those who want to achieve and for those who want Obama to rule!!!

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had
never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class..
--------------------------------------------

This was brought to my attention by a friend, Tony Labosky.

That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would
be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.

The professor then said, "OK,
we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan".

All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so
no one would fail and no one would receive an A.

After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.
The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied
little were happy.

As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had
studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free
ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D!
No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering,
blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study
for the benefit of anyone else.


All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that
socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the
effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no

one will try or want to succeed.

Could not be any simpler than that.

Obama vs USA Military....you decide

"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute.." "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country," Obama continued. "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans."

Chinese employees vs CORRUPT MANAGEMENT

BEIJING - Some 30,000 Chinese steelworkers clashed with police in a protest over plans to merge their mill with another company and beat the company's general manager to death, a human rights monitor said Saturday.

Several hundred people were injured in the clash Friday in the northeastern city of Tonghua, the Hong Kong-based Information Center for Human Rights and Democracy said in a faxed statement.

Employees of Tonghua Iron and Steel Group object to plans for Jianlong Steel take control of the company, the center said. It said Beijing-based Jianlong controlled the company temporarily last year, and employees blame Jianlong for financial problems suffered at the time.

Angry Tonghua employees attacked Jianlong general manager Chen Guojun during the protest and beat him to death, the center said. It said friends of Chen confirmed he was dead.

Workers were angry that Chen was paid some 3 million yuan ($438,000) last year while some retirees received as little as 200 yuan ($29) a month, the center said.

Immigration to Minneapolis

Minneapolis struggles with rise of Somali gangs

While many of the estimated 32 000 Somalis who settled in the United States state have struggled to adapt, Ali flourished. By age 20, he had blazed a path to Minneapolis' Augsburg College, where he played soccer, studied political science and aspired to a political career modelled on President Barack Obama's.

Gangs like the Somali Hot Boyz, the Somali Mafia and Madhibaan with Attitude have grown more active in recent years, said Jeanine Brudenell, the Minneapolis Police Department's Somali liaison officer.

He was shot dead in September outside a busy community centre where he worked part-time as a youth counsellor, and prosecutors said the 16 year old accused of killing him was part of a gang.

Folks, do any of these countries have problems with immigrants from America?

The real definition of CHANGE

Folks, this man, Obama, has fewer that 160 days as a senator and now he is our non American president. His experience is far superior to any of us. He is the best engineer, best doctor, best business administrator, best negotiator, etc., so he thinks.

The "Change" factor is actually to change the way we think.

According to him and his clones we have been thinking incorrectly for years and now e have to change.

What type of country is this government leading us to, fascist, socialist, communist or capitalist?

Think about all the freedoms we have lost lately and what the heck is cap and trade really, maybe a redistribution of wealth?

Are we really going to sit idle while a few BAD men are CHANGING the way we have to be and the way we raise our kids?

join or remain a loser......your choice

Show the real birth certificate campaign and folks, here is a biggy: Join forces now to allow us citizens, the taxpayers, to benefit directly from the tarp funds. Heck, we bailed the banks out remember, and what did we get, nothing! REALISE THAT IT WAS OUR MONEY THE THIEF FEDS USED. THE BANKS CAME CRYING AND THEY WERE MODIFIED.

Alot of citizens are facing tremendous financial stresses which will rip families apart. These stresses can relieved by ponying up to giving us help with our mortgages, LET ALONE THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OUR THIEF FEDS ARE IMPOSING ON US. We need the bail out now with no delay, just like the bank received.

Join forces with this campaign.Lets send the letters demanding our bail out. Fixing the mortgage problem is just as easy and uncomplicated as when the banks came crying.

Stop sitting on the side line saying; we have no more say. This is America. Claim your rights. We are the land of the FREE because of the BRAVE.

no choice care CONGRESS TO CARE FOR YOU!!

For all of you who are thinking that Obama and his elitists who have never worked for a company or ran and managed a company successfully here is a wake up call. Obama and the media and all his Obamatites say that you will be able to keep your insurance and your doctor.........Well folks, on page 16 of this legislation it is written that in order for you to have this ability you have to sign up for it before a due date. Failure to do so means you cannot go back and say, hmmmmm, I never knew that. Wke up and read that fine print. The media and talking heads have been told to not bring this to anyones attention.

Now, tell your friends and do something about it.

Thanks for reading, and as always your comments are appreciated.

Congress to consult your doctor

Folks, c'mon. Are we as a people that stupid? Why is no one asking congress to sign up for the very same plan they are having us, we the people who appointed them, sign? They are elitists, and have this brotherhood. They firmly believe that they, through the media can socially engineer us to accept this junk and tax hikes, the likes of which no one knows.

What frightens me is that there are real dumb folks among us who actually believe that this will be free. Wait until they see what free will cost.

How come no one, especially our open media and journalists are not asking these politicians why so many Canadians and folks from countries who have social health no care why they prefer our system, why our care facilities are better and more accessible?

Imagine for a second if a CNN reporter gets asked a question; what are you going to do if you want elective surgery or need a specific procedure and you are told no, or may have to wait 3 months for an appointment. They really think that they are not going to be part of the public who have to meet the high requirements of the free USA government plan.

Imagine your doctor says, Barnet Frank says that your procedure is not necessary, hahha.

Share your opinions and lets take back our country. The politicians firmly believe they are a government with a country and not as we do, a country with a government.

Treasury Secretary said

During an interview our Treasury Secretary said that changes in the banking sector need to be made so as to avoid another boom growth period.

Do you really know what this means folks? The government wants to control our growth and therefore you. By achieving this goal they can create economic tyranny and therefore control us by how we live, what we drive, where we go for medical treatment, how we moderate the temperature in our homes, how much we may earn......the list goes on.

This battle is not Republican vs Democrat although the media would have you believe it is. No, this battle is for them to pursue and install their ideology.

Get your friends to join. We need to stand up and respond.

Thanks for reading and as always share your opinion.

Muslim, Christian or neither.....

Well, more evidence of where we are headed as a country unless we stand up and and fight.

Obama did not show up for the "National Prayer Day"

He accepted an invitation to speak at a mosque in Egypt

Obama suggested that the sound of Islamic prayer early in the morning is a beautiful sound.

Do you think that he may speak arabic when addressing the muslims in Egypt?

Without your membership we cannot represent our voice and by now you should know that the Republicans are not willing to either.

As always I thank you for sharing this with your friends and family.

Together we can powerup our country, do you want to?

The crowning of Obama and dethroning of USA citizens

By Dick Morris
Posted: 05/05/09 05:39 PM [ET]
President Obama’s vision of the future is, apparently, an economy guided, steered and — when the occasion demands — commanded by the federal government. Some of the companies will remain private. Washington will take others over. But all will look to the White House, as to an orchestra conductor, for signals as to how and when and where to proceed.

This summary is the vision that emerges from the Chrysler bailout.

Whether or not one believes the claims of attorney Thomas Lauria (I do) that the investment bank Perella Weinberg Partners was strong-armed by the administration, the fact remains that the four firms that accepted the piddling offer of 29 cents on the dollar are all awash in Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) money.

Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan Chase all dutifully approved the offer from Washington, while Perella Weinberg reportedly held out for 50 cents. Did the combined $90 billion the four compliant firms owed Washington in TARP funds make a difference in their passive acquiescence? You bet it did.

They shouldn’t have said yes. Clearly, Obama was not about to pull the trigger, which would have sent tens of thousands of autoworkers straight into unemployment. Politically, he would have had no choice but to cough up the $4.5 billion loan the feds just gave Chrysler with or without a debt settlement. The political pressures that have always operated on this Democratic president are still there and still in play.

Knowing the ultimate vulnerability of the administration position, any investment bank that was looking out for its clients would have demanded more than 29 cents. But Citigroup, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan Chase all had a higher calling — they had to appease King Barack I. To its credit, Perella Weinberg put its investors first.

But this little vignette shows exactly what the new rules of the game will be under this administration. It won’t be Soviet-style socialism or Reaganesque capitalism. The system will more resemble the Japanese arrangement where MITI, the Ministry of Trade and Industry, informally guided companies and told them what to do. In Japan, a nod usually suffices to command. In the United States, one has to use a hammer. But the result will be the same: compliant capitalism.

Companies will not look out for their shareholders or their employees or even their customers so much as watch the smoke signals from Washington to decide what to do. The markets won’t control decisions. Washington will.

Should we bow?

This is evidence that the democrats are better, just plain better that us citizens. I find this article rather funny, but there is both real and serious consequences to us if we do not act.

Consider the presidents economic advisor - Larry Summers. He was allowed to make fortunes folks, millions actually for working only one day a week at a giant hedgefund. He now wants to impose higher taxes and tell us we should earn less. We are making to much money and that paying higher taxes is patriotic.

See, he had a chance to earn as much as he could and he never complained. The USA freedoms gave him the right to do so. Now, he is allowed to do that because he is a democrat, but we as conservative citizens are not allowed.

Go figure.

Thanks for reading.

Caught on a wire tap

Fellow concerned citizens of the great USA. For evil to exist, we should all keep quiet and just do nothing. Well, I cannot. This is America, the land of the free and the land of the brave. If you do not want your children to have their future earnings sripped away and their freedoms stripped away, then join. Tell your friends too.

A few notes of interest: Remember how the democrats were and still are so opposed to wire tapping? Well, it is because they get caught out. Case in point. Jane Harman, CA lawmaker from the party who cares about you, the democrats, allegedly (great word) agreed to intercede on behalf of two members of a prominent pro-Israeli lobbying organization in exchange for lobbying top Congressional democrats to have her appointed as chairwoman of the house intelligence committee.

The caller announced too that a WEALTHY California donor would threaten to withhold campaign contributions to Nancy Pelosi.

Oh, by the way, the caller asked Ms Harman to intervene with the justice department. The wealthy donor is none other than Haim Saban, a vocal supporter of Israel and he is a media mogul.

America vs Rome.........

Folks, if you have not yet become a member I strongly urge you to do so. All it costs is $35-00 annually, less than a hamburger a day. Without this we have no voice of opposition, voice of reason against the memberships of move on, the huffington post and many more. A volunteer voice is just that, a volunteer voice. A paid voice brings meaning and passion and ..........

Ten percent of your donation will go to a charity of your choice. We will eventually have some great bumper stickers and t shirts too. Imagine the possibilities.

Consider the following:

Our esteemed president has just rocketed the sales of dictators book to the number 2 spot on Amazon. The man, Hugo Chavez, hates America with passion, he called Bush the equivalent of a hitler. He calls for the destruction of the USA, he helps Iran with their missile systems and we know where they are aimed, he helps Russia. What good is this man for any free people? He wants to be a lifetime pres, and he has just nationalized almost every business in his country, and our president shakes his hand. See any resemblance with the reverend Wright church that Obama attended?

Freedom of speech. Do we still have it or is it controlled by the elite? You decide.

Miss America was asked a question about gay marriage and she answered that in her family it frowned on and that she believes that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. Should be free to say the, correct? She was not crowned.

Please do post your responses as it is important to all. This is your voice and your community board.

Fairness on taxes......you decide? Lary Summers.

This man is hazardous to us working Americans who believe in land love and libertry.

This man is a Democrat and keep in mind he earned $5m working only one day a week at a giant hedge fund. A true capitalist. Now he is an advisor to Obama and says that we should adopt to higher taxes. I suppose what was good for him was just that, god for him and no one else allowed, except of course the elite who want to tell us wjhat we may earn, may drive, etc.

Thanks for reading.

Stimulate We the People....OR we the politicians?

Who caused this?
How did we get here?
What is an economical stimulation that is beneficial to We the people vs We the politicians and we the banks?

Some history about stimulus packages and the destruction they have brought with them.

Folks, government intervention in the US economy did not begin in 1933 under Roosevelt. Government had intervened in the economy from the very beginning; the first economic act of Congress, July 1789 was a comprehensive protective tariff. Banks faced detailed federal and state regulations. Branch and interstate banking were forbidden. Free market banking did not exist and and the gold standard was limited.

The Federal Reserve was born in 1913 by the big banks and politicians who decided a more regulatory regime was needed to keep the economy on an even keel. So, the Federal Reserve Bank is a government sponsored banking cartel.

History tells us that the worst to date US depression occurred 15 years after the Fed bank opened. Now, if you are ignorant of history someone might guess that the Fed Reserve Bank was setup to to prevent a repeat of the Great Depression, but he/she would be wrong.

Ben Bernanke made a remark at the 90th birthday celebration of Milton Friedman saying: "Regarding the Great Depression, you're right. We did it. we are very sorry."

How did they do it?

The Great Depression was marred by the Fed's inflation of credit. This is what is being done right now folks.

During this time the money supply (we will do whatever it takes and costs) grew by 62%. This is the government printing money.

Folks, history shows that the inflation of the 1920s was actually over by the end of 1928 and therefore from that time onward a depression to adjust the economy was inevitable. Why inevitable? To understand this we must understand the role of interest rates in a free market. We the People prefer goods in the present to goods in the future. If you defer (put off till later) consumption you typically must be compensated. This role of compensation is called - interest rate!

This time preference (deferred consumption) can vary greatly. One person may be willing to lend at money at 5% while another may be willing to lend at 9%. This variance in interest rates emerges from competition among lenders and borrowers.

It is important that you understand this: Changes in interest rates absent from government intervention, signal real changes in peoples time preferences. Interest rates rise when you reduce your savings and buy more. Interest rates fall when when you (we the people) decide to defer (put off) buying and save more. This information tells producers and investors when and how to invest, long term short term It is during this critical transition and time signalling function that this process becomes severely damaged when the Fed's expands the money supply.

Looking back the Fed's inflated in the 1920s precisely to lower the rates below the FREE MARKET LEVEL. Since the signals created by the Fed's were false in the sense that they were not aligned with the consumers true time preferences producers and investors behaved differently than they would have in a free market. So, the 1920s boom - built on false expectations induced by the Fed's easy credit was unsustainable. With the Fed's inflation over by the end of 1928 the BUST was just a matter of time. The stock market crash of of 1929 left banks with unpaid loans and their shaky condition eroded confidence and set off bank runs. Companies failed, unemployment rose all because of the Fed's getting involved and not understanding a free market. See anything familiar here yet with the Fed's current intervention.......?

Folks, this might have been a one or two year depression.This failure of the banks, stock market crash and companies failing creating a tremendous contraction of money was something the Fed's created and facilitated.

The central bank had been established as a lender of last resort to the banking system, obviating the markets own solution to illiquidity.

So, folks, with banks failing etc., people held on to their money and reduced consumption which in turn left businesses without customers hence the second depression. The government really made things worse by aggressively interfering with the market correction.

History tells us that in previous depressions where the Fed's typically CUT SPENDING and TAXES and LET THE MARKET LIQUIDATE BAD INVESTMENTS. By applying this method those previous depressions were relatively brief.

Let's take a look at fmr. pres. Hoover. He moved quickly to raise government spending and taxes of all kinds. The top rate went from 24% to 63%. Banks were subsidized, rail roads industries, home owners with mortgages, local governments and farmers.

Hoover urged the nations governors to increase public-works spending and had the federal government join the effort. Hoover even pressured companies to not cut wages. Now folks, when wages are rigid while all other prices are falling, unemployment goes up."We might have done nothing " Hoover said. "That would have been utter ruin. Instead we meet the situation with proposals to private business and to Congress of the most gigantic program of economic defense and counter attack ever evolved in the history of the Republic." This was the Hoover New Deal. So folks, if interventionist economic theory were correct, Hoovers program should have been a smashing success and he would have been reelected.

Roosevelt became the president and he ran on a balanced budget, reduced government spending program. Well (we the politicians as always) changed tactics when he was elected. He raised taxes and spending to new heights and CONFISCATED THE PEOPLES GOLD.

His programs of the NEW DEAL is familiar, beginning with the fascistic National Recovery Administration (NRA) which cartelized the industry and this brought central planning to farming, banking and securities regulation incl the make work Civilian Conservation Corps.

This massive public works spending program helped Roosevelt politically but did little to employ those most desperately in need. Luckily the Supreme Court declared the NRA and public works programs unconstitutional. Thus began the 2nd New Deal which included Social Security, the National Labor Relations Act. Yet with all the government intervention and activism, the US economy, despite halting attempts at recovery, could not shake the Depression. In 1937 and 1938 the financial system went into an unprecedented secondary depression with a new stock market crash and unemployment climbing back over 20%. The New Deal further eroded banks, raised taxes, made hiring workers especially unskilled blacks, prohibitively expensive. Increased the price of most goods incl food and discouraged investment. Roosevelt really had no plan, instead he was a pragmatist ready to try anything, an approach that engendered stultifying uncertainty.

First, he mandated anti-competitive cartels; then he brought antitrust prosecutions against firms for monopolistic activity. Under these circumstances businesses were afraid to male long term investment plans.

What can we learn from all of this? That money is to important to be left to the state. One way or another, the government mismanagement of the monetary system wrecked the US economy. It is happening again folks. This is our money. The way it is supposed to be is "We the People and not We the politicians and government. The only permanent way to avoid a repetition is to place the system where it belongs; in the FREE MARKET.

Second, efforts to prevent liquidation of malinvestment caused by inflation bankrupt companies and only prolong economic agony. Bailouts are counterproductive.

Third, government stimulus spending, borrowing, taxation, and public works commandeer scarce private resources and prevent entrepreneurs from shifting them to investments aligned with consumer, not political preferences.

Fourth, individual liberty is at stake and is the first casualty when bureaucracy expands.

Remember, government cannot create wealth, it can only transfer it.

Pres. Obama has declared his intention to spend, NEW DEAL-STYLE, hundreds of billions of dollars to rebuild infrastructure, modernize schools,and expand the broadband network. No matter how meritorious these projects, they do not constitute a genuine recovery program.

Post your comments as always and become a member. Folks, this is our country and we elect the politicians. We need to remember this. We need to stand up and take our country back. We need to do this for our children. we can become a force that will report roll over politicians and hold them responsible.
