Democrats,  Republicans, EVERYONE ! !

To President  Obama and all 535 voting  members of the Legislature,

It is now  official you are ALL corrupt morons:  

    *   The U.S.  Post Service was established in 1775. You have  had 234
years to get it right and it is  broke. 
    *   Social  Security was established in 1935.  You have had 74 years to
get it right and it is  broke. 
    *   Fannie Mae  was established in 1938. You have had 71 years  to get
it right and it is broke. 
    *   War on  Poverty started in 1964. You  have had 45 years to get it
right; $1 trillion  of our money is confiscated each year  and transferred to
"the poor" and they only want  more. 
    *   Medicare  and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have  had 44
years to get it right and they are  broke. 
    *   Freddie  Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39  years to get
it right and it is broke. 
    *   The  Department of Energy was created in 1977 to  lessen our
dependence on foreign oil. It has  ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of 
$24 billion a year and we import more oil than  ever before. You had 32
years to get it right  and it is an abysmal failure.

You have  FAILED in every "government service" you have  shoved down our
throats while overspending our  tax dollars

AND YOU  WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED  WITH A
GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE  SYSTEM??

Double-Count Medicare Savings

CBO: You Can’t Double-Count Medicare Savings

Dec 29, 2009

by John Goodman

Democrats in Congress are claiming that cuts in Medicare spending will both pay for health reform and add to Medicare’s long-term solvency. But a new CBO report says it’s either/or, but not both. [Of course, this also implies that the Medicare and Social Security trust funds are not holding anything of value — Congress has been double-counting there since the inception of those programs.] 

Fix The Banking System In 4 Steps

By Dylan Ratigan

I spoke today on the Morning Meeting about the four steps the government could take to fix the U.S. banking system and stop the ongoing and expanding corruption of our country. These simple solutions come from the litany of people that I speak with who seek to change the mega-casino our government has built during the past 10 years back to one built on investors, innovators and workers creating things that benefit society.  Unfortunately, our current leaders want to take the easy road of sustaining the casino economy with what I like to call the Magic Money Machine.  Except as with all magic, there's actually a trick; in this case, it is a large bill that will be left to those of us unfortunate enough to still be around when it comes due.  Here are the four pieces of regulation that taxpayers should be demanding from their leaders:

1. Inject transparency, primarily to bring almost $600 trillion of crooked insurance scams to the forefront.  Force almost all swaps onto exchanges, not just the 20% as current proposed reform does.

Secretary Geithner, Chairman Frank and Chairman Dodd are protecting the last of the Wall Street secret money-making schemes. They don't want to force transparency on this market because it would disclose the fraud this massive bank scheme is -- a taxpayer subsidized secret insurance market which sells cheap insurance to hedge funds, power and food and energy companies, and makes for huge profits at banks and insurance companies. Insurance and idle speculation in secret is a brilliant way for banks and other financial services companies to make money (who doesn't want to collect insurance premiums every month for something you'll never have to pay for?!) And a great way to make oil, food and electricity company CEOs richer as they pay less for their insurance. One problem -- they are all surfing on the taxpayers back to the tune of $24 trillion at risk last I checked -- and the U.S. government is the one letting them do it. Still. Now bigger than ever.

2. Demand capital to back Wall Street's gambling.

In Vegas, you need to have actual money to gamble. Your own money. It's crazy, but true. Even today, in many cases more than ever, U.S. banks use America's FDIC insured safe deposits to fund their own mad bonus-seeking speculation. Once the banks blow through that -- they borrow from the biggest money printing house in the world, the U.S. Federal Reserve to do the same thing. This is truly insane. The banks and their traders keep the upside. You, the taxpayer, keep the downside. No one else in the world can pay themselves billions to take infinite risk with little or no money down, except a big bank CEO. And we thought they were good at their jobs making all that money, when all they did was rig the game using our government to do it.

3. Enact a tax-code to encourage long-term investment and discourage short-term profit. Fortunes should not be made in minutes but over years through the creation of value to society.

  

As long as the easiest way for a man or woman to make money is to spend their day clicking for dollars, why would they bother doing all the work of investing in the long-term economic development of private business in America? Tax code in general should encourage investment, jobs, and innovation in America and discourage idle speculation as the easiest way for a college kid to get rich.  There are sensible ways to use tax policy to encourage this that do not hamper liquidity.

4. Break up the Too Big To Fail banking institutions. Start with Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan. Right Now.

      

How do you expect any other business to compete with the chosen few who are guaranteed profits? The more risk they take, the more they make. Why do you think they invented a fake $600 Trillion secret derivative market in the first place? Bigger bonuses baby. All upside. No downside. Thank you Uncle Sam. Thank you Secretary Geithner.

Are you crazy? It is broke!!

The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 - you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.
Social Security was established in 1935 - you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.
Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke.
The "War on Poverty" started in 1964 - you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"; it hasn't worked and our entire country is broke.
Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - you've had 44 years to get it right; they are broke.
Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke.
Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive political payoffs called TARP, the "Stimulus", the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009... none show any signs of working, although ACORN appears to have found a new victim: the American taxpayer.
And finally, to set a new record:
"Cash for Clunkers" was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took good dependable cars (that were the best some people could afford) and replaced them with high-priced and less-affordable cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the profits went out of the country. And the American taxpayers take the hit for Congress' generosity in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed experiments.
So with a perfect 100% failure! rate and a record that proves that "services" you shove down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care system?

20% of our entire economy?

With all due respect,

Are you crazy?

Socialized health care reform

Government Health care?? I don't think it would be a good idea for many reasons.
One of the arguments for it is that the cost of our health care is high and keeps going higher. Well yeah!!!
Now let's look at the reasons for that.
First of all is big government intervention, like all the freakin' paper work that's required to remain in practice. A form for this and verification for that, A doctor has to add a few extra people on staff just to complete the paper work properly. Secondly is the insurance, my god, in this sue happy culture we live in a doctor has to have millions of dollars in insurance.
Thirdly the HMO's became the middle man between the insurance companies and the doctors, you know their going to get their share.

Now that's three main reasons for increased cost of medical coverage.
Do you think the doctors are going to absorb those costs???
Hell no, that cost is being past on either to the insurance companies or the government (in the case of our failing medicare and medicaid programs).

These programs were put in place by the Democrat led Congress and Senate.
Now they want to put more of the same expensive, failing policies into effect and into play.
Do I believe they'll succeed? NO!!
But unfortunately they will gain a bit more of a foothold and move their progressive agenda further towards attaining that goal.
Just a little bit at a time till it's accomplished. Patients will win out.

Government entitlements are the problem

I'm a big believer that entitlements are one of the main problems with our economy. Government granted entitlements. Everyone deserves some. A little here a little there till everyone has their hand in the pie. That is why Democracy will fail and we will no longer be a Republic. Medicaid is failing, Social Security is failing, medicare is too. how can we expect the government to operate the biggest entitlement of all, in a nationalized health care plan? More and more entitlements. I can't help but think about perhaps some of my own entitlements. Like a decent road, a close fire station, cops all around, infrastructure, like sewer, water and electricity. Are those Entitlements? I suppose not cause I help pay for them with taxes and I don't have my hand out expecting them for free. What about all the retired and disabled military? They deserve it don't they? I'm thinkin' perhaps the military, active and former are the only ones deserving of entitlements. The rest of you with your hands out expecting the government to fill it with my tax dollars, forget it, go the church pantry.

Federalized Health Care

Do you believe that under a federalized heath care plan the Gov. would actually pay for a second opinion from another doctor? How about a third opinion? If you had a catastrophic health issue, wouldn't you want at least a second opinion?
It's my belief that the reason health care is so expensive now is because of government interference into the free market. Requiring so much insurance and paperwork that it basically can drive a practitioner out of business.
Government has been so efficient at running medicare , medicaid and social security so now rather than put money into fixing their mistakes in those agencies, you'd allow them to put all of us into debt of a Trillion dollars to start a new agency? WTF, are you crazy? Stupid ass Obamama cool aid drinkers.
