Democrat Taxing is Becoming Obscene and Repulsive
Breaking the backs of decent Americans
The Democrat Party is on a “throw-caution-to-the-winds” course in their quest for power. This group of our country’s citizens cares little for what happens to people who have worked hard all of their lives to succeed and to live relatively comfortable in their declining years. These power-mad fanatics will stop at nothing to show “they CAN” when it comes to breaking the backs of decent Americans who only want to have a good home and some comforts to go along with it.
At the national level, they are doing all in their power to see to it that the corrupt and abysmal labor unions are repaid for all the many millions of dollars that they have filched from their defenseless members who dare not utter one word against such tactics for fear of broken knee-caps or much worse maladies. Talk about slavery, the unions walk that walk every day.
Forceful registration of unwilling workers into the corrupt and money-grabbing union membership rolls
The ultimate result of all this “slobbery love affair” between the Dems and the unions, to paraphrase Bernard Goldberg’s book, will be the uncontrolled and unregulated forceful registration of unwilling workers into the corrupt and money-grabbing union membership rolls. With more members being dragged by their hair into the unions, the thugs and corrupt bosses that run them will become all that much richer from the forced removal of what is laughingly called “union dues” from the newly added workers.
This added largesse will give these already overbearingly corrupt unions even more money for their own already stuffed wallets but also more to buy hundreds more politicians after they buy enough votes to get their puppet pols elected to office. It is a sickening preview of our future in America; if in fact, America still exists or becomes just a union puppet like the pols. Then they’ll find out who really has the power.
The Democrats are also on a fast-track to rob anyone who has worked hard to accumulate some wealth, so they can take that money and give it, or as they call it: redistribute it to those at the bottom of the welfare pits. How they expect the ones who are going to be robbed to just grin and bear it, is beyond me. They will find that the gentle American has become a copy-cat Islamic terrorist, hell-bent on lopping off heads as those terrorists are always itching to do.
But wait, there’s more, as the pitchman on TV screams into your living rooms; just get a load of what is going on in one formerly conservative state before its neighbors to the South began to move in and bring their big government spending habits with them. The tax man cometh, and cometh and cometh when he or she is wearing Democrat pointy topped hats.
Big government, tax and spend Democrats
I speak of New Hampshire, where I reside and formerly prefaced that with the word “happily” until the big government, tax and spend Democrats moved in from the southern state (see above) and changed our once always in the black ink state to a now constantly red ink state.
They have failed at trying to make the people here swallow the tired old line that a “broad-based tax is needed”. It was never needed before they took over the reins and began their spending sprees and raising just about every license fee on the books in order to get their hands on more of the people’s dollars. Their motto appears to be, “If it moves tax it; if it doesn’t move, tax it.”
But after exhausting just about every possible way to pass a new tax on the state’s residents, they decided that they’ll pretend to be good little legislators and tax people from OUT of state too. Word has just filtered down from one of the people’s allies: The National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Action.
These hardy defenders against attacks on the Second Amendment of our Constitution, (another document taking a beating at the hands of Democrats and which also is struggling for survival) have advised New Hampshire’s residents of a plan to be put in the legislative hopper by those same Dems, to seek an increase in the fee for non-residents for licenses to carry a weapon, in the amount of FIVE HUNDRED PERCENT. The current fee of $20 will jump to $100. What a nice surprise to spring on our visitors to the state for some recreational hunting.
I guess these lovers of big government and big taxes just don’t know when to quit. Conduct like this is nothing short of being despicable and greedy and uncaring. They won’t be happy until the day New Hampshire can ask their messiah in Washington for some bail-out money.
Well, New Hampshire used to be a nice place to live; now it’s not even a nice place to visit.
