Big Government : George Soros Moves to Institute a New Global Currency

Sat, 23 Apr 2011 19:52:41 +0000

If you think inflation is bad now, wait until we get a one-world currency and gold goes to $5,000 an ounce. This can only benefit the banking industry at the sole risk and expense of everyone else on the planet.

Big Government : The First Birthers Were Progressive Democrats

Sat, 23 Apr 2011 19:48:15 +0000

Liberals suffer from the reality that they are actually inferior human-beings because of their lack of constitution and the absence of a moral compass. They all know they are inferior - they are children of a lesser god. They carry this around with them 24/7 wherever they go. It is the monkey on their back. They try to placate the monkey by using alcohol, drugs and even food to assuage their guilt about their shortcomings and the fact that everywhere they go someone else has to pay their way, make room for them, create a special dispensation or otherwise change the rules of the road so these people can act like they are as good as anyone else. It is when these measures fail that the bile begins to rise and the insufficient self image becomes so unmanageable that they lash out at people who are in fact really suffering from a debilitating ailment or accident of birth who are disabled. You see, those people who are suffering an actual shortcoming stand as a stark reminder to the liberal of who is really entitled to a special dispensation and it is that reminder that shames the liberal animal and reminds it that it is actually not entitled to anything and that everyone knows they are inferior beings. This cannot be allowed to stand because actual head-to-head comparisons between the handicapped person and the liberal will always create the situation where the liberal comes off as second best. This is why liberals always act with condescension towards the handicapped and will lash out at them because; by diminishing the handicapped in the minds of others, they can stand more favorably when the inevitable comparison comes about. That my friends is my analysis and I base it on the fact of how liberals have acted towards my handicapped son for the past 27 years.

Big Government : Senator Corker Explains His Plan to Cap Spending and Reduce the Fiscal Burden of Government

Actually the marginal rate has been around 19% of GDP and in every case where this rate has been exceeded a recession was induced in the economy that lasted until the marginal rate fell below 19% of GDP. We cannot grow our way out of the national debt and we cannot tax our way out of it. We have to go a different route to get there...

The Fair Tax sounds good, but it labors under the same structural shortcoming that plagues our current system. It may well be out of the frying pan and into the fire. The best one can say about the Fair Tax is that we will feel better about becoming the next Greece or Portugal or Ireland...

I'll second that. Pussy also comes to mind. Feckless pussy as a matter of fact.

I like this version better. It seems to have more specificity... LOL!

Big Government : Loser in Wisconsin Supreme Court Race Demands Recount

Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:14:01 +0000

She has the right. She won't win - save by some form of electoral fraud - but our system of elections is based upon transparency and the recount will put a dagger through the heart of her candidacy and the unions and media outlets who swore they would deliver the result only to find that people have a remarkable ability to think for themselves once they are presented with the facts and a clear choice between liberal promises and conservative realities.

Big Government : In Shot Heard Around Business World, Obama's Labor Board Issues Complaint Against Boeing

This will have a dramatic impact on GDP as the government cannot ignore the impact of Rational Choice Theory in favor of expedients that favor their supporters. If this is allowed to stand the recession will only get deeper as the inefficiencies this ruling will introduce into the private-sector economy will be magnified at all levels. If I were seeking to actively destroy the economy of this country, I could hardly pick a set of rules and decisions that would have a more detrimental impact upon the economy than those enacted by Mr. Obama. The goal here has to be to magnify the political opportunity this record creates and use it to destroy the political future of Mr. Obama. Everything else is just window-dressing.

These plans sound good, but they always put in a measure of flexibility for the sake of so-called "emergencies". Once this loophole is in place, more and more spending goes down as "emergency spending" and the result is a law that has no teeth - just like all the other balanced budget amendments and related plans. The important point here is to bear in mind that, in a democracy, fiscal spending (i.e.: spending by all units of government combined) is a relatively unlimited activity, because; the people making the spending decisions are making those decisions based upon spending everyone else's money, so there is no real impetus to reduce spending. The structure of the institutions and the method of obtaining money for government to spend are to blame and it is there that we must seek our solace. Simply using the same tools in the same way will continue to generate the same outcomes.

I believe the correct terminology here is "dickweed". Use of the "dickwheat" is more parochial and therefore may be considered a term of endearment while the more pungent "dickweed" suggests a surfeit of bile and derision to which the victim is to be held accountable. Yes, I'm going to go take my meds right now! LOL!

Big Government : Standard & Poors Rings The Reality Bell

This is the tremor in the earth before the big quake that sends a tsunami of debt ashore that will drown our country. Today it was just a tremor, but the forces are already set to unleash a bolt of financial energy that is truly unprecedented and all the while they sleep.

Big Government : Massive Budget Cuts

Tue, 19 Apr 2011 00:27:45 +0000

And the joke is on all of us as all this suffering and angst just doesn't have to happen. Certainly the budget problems seem big, but only because we insist upon using 17th century solutions to deal with them.

Big Government : The IRS: Even Worse Than You Think

And it won't work. Not a single country that adopted the so-called "fair tax" VAT has paid off their deficits. It's just more liberal b.s.

Big Government : U.S. Taxpayers on the Hook for Portugal Bailout

Mon, 18 Apr 2011 15:06:27 +0000

This is what happens when fractional-reserve banking is used in conjunction with the liability-expansion method of creating currency. No real wealth is created in the underlying economic society that is not controlled or owed to the banking industry. I wonder when Congress will finally come to this conclusion and be ready to do something that is really long-lasting and far-reaching in terms of impact upon our prospects for sustainable prosperity. While I applaud the author for raising the concerns, in the end we know that the author is likely to only talk about the problem rather than actually addressing it and we need to make sure the author is held accountable for it.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm reading Genesis now and there are certainly lessons in microeconomics there as well as macroeconomics. I would love to have some spiritual awareness as part of the plan, but we have to get it passed first it would seem and it is going to be extraordinarily controversial as it is.

Big Government : China Is About to Suffer a Banking Crisis

Mon, 18 Apr 2011 13:17:10 +0000

I am getting more and more inquiries for commercial real estate development financing owing to proposed new construction projects in China. For example, one project is looking for $400 million and another is looking for approximately $15 million. These are senior housing projects and multifamily housing projects with some retail uses mixed in, but the point is we are getting the inquiries where none existed as recent as two years ago. There are big problems in China and this is a great article because it goes beyond the headlines and explains the issues the PRC is facing. K+ to the author!

Big Government : Are Republicans Rebounding With Trump Because They Can't Have Christie?

Sun, 17 Apr 2011 23:59:19 +0000

Obama floats a lot of bull cookies over "winning the future" and anyone with a brain knows this is just code for more tax and spend liberalism. If Trump says he can win the future somehow I have to believe the Donald would actually deliver. That's the difference and everyone knows it even Obama and that's why they are trying so hard to marginalize him now before he gets a head of steam.

Big Government : Auto Recall: When The Wheels Come Off Government Motors…Literally

Sun, 17 Apr 2011 22:33:54 +0000

This only matters if the toothless pussies in the GOP are going to actually do something about it and make it a centerpiece issue of the same scale as one owing to an impeachment. Let's be real. The GOP approved of the GM deal as they love crony capitalism just as much as the Democrats do. The real suckers are conservative Americans who - once again - have demonstrated themselves to be the biggest suckers on the planet for believing that the GOP would see the light. Never vote the Republican ticket ever again. Vote for the Libertarian platform, libertarian tea party candidates or stay home and don't bother. Voting for GOP candidates has gotten us nowhere and we all know it.

When you are ready there is an entire alternative revenue system available that would replace the IRS and end the tyranny of taxation that has been imposed by the left upon us. Take a minute and read the one-page talking points memo on it and then ask yourself if you would like to see the meat. http://www.capitalismbookstore.com/LovellianEcono... You can read the policy brief (white paper) that demonstrates the totality of this new system at: http://www.capitalismbookstore.com/LovellianEcono...
