What is the next level up in the monetary monopoly game after trillion? Is it jillion or zillion? Somebody had better find out soon as our new spendthrift president is going through your taxes faster than the dictionaries can keep up with words of identification.
Some of his plans for bailing out the entire world of all its debt and whatever else ails it, are either just announced, in the process of being announced and then there are those that will be announced next week or the following week without fail. Some of his spending plans are out and out hum-crackin-dingers. And he isn’t a bit embarrassed about it. If you call him on any of his plans, he replies by coming up with another new one that nobody had even thought about. He’s just full of monstrous messianic, jaw-dropping, eye popping, budget and billfold busting bailout blockbusters.
He doesn’t care about how much your taxes are, with all of the expert tax-dodging people he knows that could have wound up in his cabinet as some did, he knows he could get savvy advice on how to avoid paying any increases. His experiences at high-stepping and avoiding little restrictions like proving his natural born citizenship to serve as our president is working very well for him. So what’s a little taxes when you can beat the United States Constitution mandates?
The Center for Individual Freedom (CFIF) in an internet article on March 5, 2009 stated according to The Heritage Foundation that by recently “adding the ‘stimulus’ bill to a realistic budget baseline yields a projected 2010-2017 cumulative budget deficit of $8.4 trillion – two and one half times the size of President Bush’s deficits over a same eight-year period.”
What took Bush 8 years and a major warfare engagement to create his debts, Obama has overwhelmed that and nearly tripled it in less than 8 weeks!
But this man is just getting warmed up; on top of all this, and with the help of Pelosi and Reid, he still wants to nationalize health care; put the federal government in charge of all energy; your children’s education; eradicate global poverty; additional bailouts and it is all going to be paid for by YOU the taxpayer, as the CFIF says.
And just between us, it won’t be only the ones earning over $250 thousand per year. No, even they couldn’t raise that much needed money, so it will come out of every hard-working individual that brings home a paycheck, or correct that: USED to bring home a paycheck.
CFIF goes on to say, “It’s time for Americans to stick their heads out of the window and - to borrow a phrase from the classic movie Network - shout to Barack Obama: “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take this anymore!”
And that’s not a bad idea. How about all 69 million Americans who did NOT vote for Obama last November all together, send a letter or an email or make a phone call to the President of the United States saying just that quote? And those of you who did vote for him and may be now wishing you hadn’t, you are more than welcome to join the rest of us to powerfully send a message about how we feel.
Come to think of it, under the law of unintended circumstances, if all of us sent a letter with our grievances in it, the revenue from all those stamps just might bail out our Postal Service. Can’t hurt.
