Quotes From Clueless Politicians

It’s only been two and a half years. I got five and a half years more to go

President Barack Obama

From Real Clear Politics, Optimistic Obama: “I Got Five-And-A-Half Years More To Go

So far the only thing he has improved in two and a half years is his golf game. Hows that Hope and Change working out for you, America? If Barack Obama thinks he has five and a half years left he is delusional. Do you remember Jimmy Carter?

Wake up America!

Banking through History

Quote of the day

I am one of those who do not believe that a national debt is a national blessing, but rather a curse to a republic; inasmuch as it is calculated to raise around the administration a moneyed aristocracy dangerous to the liberties of the country.

From Newsradio 620, WTMJ by Charlie Sykes -

UNIONS THREATEN BUSINESS

Dear Mr. Businessman

The undersigned groups would like your company to publicly oppose Governor Walker’s efforts to virtually eliminate collective bargaining for public employees in Wisconsin. While we appreciate that you may need some time to consider this request, we ask for your response by March 17. In the event that you do not respond to this request by that date, we will assume that you stand with Governor Walker and against the teachers, nurses, police officers, fire fighters, and other dedicated public employees who serve our communities.

In the event that you cannot support this effort to save collective bargaining, please be advised that the undersigned will publicly and formally boycott the goods and services provided by your company.

In the event you would like to discuss this matter further, please contact the executive Director of the Wisconsin Professional Police Association, Jim Palmer, at 608.273.3840.

Thank you in advance for your consideration. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

So whats next? Someone breaks into your factory, business, home and the Police don’t respond. Maybe there’s a fire and the Fire trucks don’t roll.

Nothing like being threatened by the head of the Wisconsin Professional Police union to add extra value to the intimidation factor.

Quotes From Clueless Politicians

When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the, you know, princes of greed. He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened.’

Vice President Joesph Biden

Note: The stock market crashed in 1929. FDR was elected in 1932. And televisions were still in the laboratory. A heartbeat away, think about that….

Reagan’s Thanksgiving Address

Spread The Wealth - A Thanksgiving Story

From the American Institute for Economic Research a story relevant to our times, The Real Meaning of Thanksgiving: The Triumph of Capitalism over Collectivism.

Lesson learned from the early Pligrims….

The desire to “spreading the wealth” and for government to plan and regulate people’s lives is as old as the utopian fantasy in Plato’s Republic. The Pilgrim Fathers tried and soon realized its bankruptcy and failure as a way for men to live together in society.

They, instead, accepted man as he is: hardworking, productive, and innovative when allowed the liberty to follow his own interests in improving his own circumstances and that of his family. And even more, out of his industry result the quantities of useful goods that enable men to trade to their mutual benefit.

In the wilderness of the New World, the Plymouth Pilgrims had progressed from the false dream of communism to the sound realism of capitalism. At a time of economic uncertainty, it is worthwhile recalling this beginning of the American experiment and experience with freedom.

Buffett Wants Rich toPay More

From Bloomberg by Juliann Neher, Buffett Tells ABC Rich Americans Should Be Paying `a Lot’ More in Taxes

Dear Mr. Buffett, If you are so interested in paying ‘a Lot’ more please go ahead and write a big check to the Unites States Treasury. I’m sure some bureaucrats will find a way to spend all you can give.

Here’s an idea for you, have all American’s pay the same percentage of their income. Thus eliminating the “social engineering” imposed on us by the tax code.
