Have a great Sunday,

This was written and published eight years ago right here by your’s truly as the debt ceiling “debate” strikes again.

Wheels on the bus go round and round.

ABOLISH INCOME TAX

If used properly Facebook and the internet can be powerful positive forces. In my last post I requested my words be shared everywhere, all across the land:) I thank all of you who’ve done so and will do so in the future. One voice at a time is exactly how we will make a difference and restore OUR country.

One Facebook friend made me laugh and smile. He copied and pasted my column onto a page that was extolling the virtues of California Governor Jerry Brown. The people on this page don’t usually enjoy facts or my literary sense of humor. Silly people. Don’t they know Trix are for kids!:)

The group page was called “Thinkprogressive.org.” The “thinkers” were excited because “Governor Moonbeam” (their words) was “calling” for 50% renewal energy in the next couple of decades in California.

Jerry Brown’s quote was this: “the challenge is to build the future, not steal from it”. Wow…that was deep, and if you actually read the sentence again you’ll see how absurd this mindset really is.

Never in my life have I thought it a challenge to “build” the future. The future is coming one way or the other. Besides, common sense tells me (rather than “calling” for things) to work hard, save my money and be generous. Things will be just fine. Did you hear the word “steal anywhere in there?”

The “thinkers” were excited about something that was being “called for”. Universal health care has been called on for years. Now that it’s here it’s neither universal or providing the promised health care. 30 to 40 million Americans supposedly didn’t have health insurance before the unaffordable “Affordable Care Act”. The “thinkers” loved this program.

How many uninsured Americans will be covered after billions if not trillions of dollars have been wasted. Maybe 6 maybe 7 million (less if we take out dental work) out of the 30 to 40 million who “needed” it. Good job “thinkers”. For the cost we probably could have put a clinic in every town across the nation.

Rather than “subsidizing” the individual, then practicing the bait and switch with out of control monthly premiums they cannot pay, we could have offered $10.00 co-pays for 95 percent of the people who show up at the emergency room for the flu! Good job thinkers!

Let’s get excited about a politician “calling” for something he will have no control over nor has any inkling of the scientific process. Let’s get excited about a train no one in California will ever ride.

To all public retirees in California: Your money is being spent on a choo choo train.

Don’t take my word for it. Go ask Stockton. Go ask San Bernardino.

While the “thinkers” were patting Governor “Moonbeam” (again their words) on the back for pontificating, the public retirement systems are barely hanging on due to poor management and promises that can never be delivered.

As we speak right now the public retirement systems are underfunded.

The only reason they have any money is the over leveraged stock market. Borrowed money on borrowed time. Or in other terms. Obama bucks on Yellin lies. To be “fair” it could also be called Obama bucks on Bernanke lies. Heaven forbid the “thinkers” stop screaming “hands up” and go back to the “war on women”. But let us return to our regular programming.

“There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by sword, the other is by debt.” John Adams.

The “thinkers” believe in “big or centralized government”. In Russia and China this is called Communism. In Germany it was called Fascism. In Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, etc., it’s called Islam.

They also believe in a consumption economy. They believe in debt. Barack Obama made a statement (yes there is video “thinkers”) that currently our debt isn’t a problem but in ten years it will be. He said this as he added trillions more while screaming the government was being shutdown. Wow.

Ladies and Gentlemen. I actually laugh at things like this now. “Thinking” economists will tell us we have to borrow and spend more money to get out of debt. A five year old will tell you this is ridiculous.

“The economy is about to boom!” Well of course it looks like that to the “thinkers”. When you borrow trillions AND manipulate our currency the items in your “mirror” may appear much larger than reality. Any economy based on consumption will always be joined by debt and will eventually succumb.

The “thinkers” have given us massive over consumption at every level. Drugs, sexual promiscuity, and debt. Sound familiar? “Tune in, turn on, drop out”.

Freedom will always be accompanied by production and equity. To solve serious problems we need serious people. Sober minds will tell you we have a debt crisis that is almost here. Actually, it is here.

The politicians just keep feeding the beast knowing full well the monster they’ve created will consume us all when it isn’t fed (currency crisis via the debt amid eventual rising interest rates).

Paraphrasing Albert Einstein. The organism that created the problem can never be the organism to fix the problem. We all know this to be true and yet we continue practicing insanity, doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result.

But there is a better way and it starts right here. For those of you who’ve read Late Bird you know I detailed specific systems that have to be put in place to derail this oncoming crash. The most important will be to abolish all income tax.

Any and all Federal income tax must be removed including, income, payroll, corporate, inheritance, etc. It is replaced with a consumption tax.

Let me just say this right now. For any of you “thinkers” don’t bother with a long diatribe of wasteful verbiage about how a consumption tax is regressive and hurtful to poor people. It’s you and your lack of ethics that is harmful to poor people! Take your guilt and your race to the bottom Eeyorish mentality back to ThinkProgressive.com.

First off all taxes are REGRESSIVE.

Second. Read the book! Everything is spelled out in there. Do your homework before you open your mouth. Otherwise you will be “BBDed”. Blocked, banned, deleted. I don’t do free therapy anymore. We have a nation to restore.

Abolishing income tax fixes two main issues.

(1) By removing these regressive and oppressive tax systems corporations all over the world will race each other to be in America providing tens of millions of new jobs. This will increase the value of our soil and allow us to rebuild our neighborhoods.

We will lead the world in innovation and production on OUR land. By harnessing our natural resources, specifically natural gas, an energy system can be created where eventually after the debt is paid off we could abolish the consumption tax as well. I will explain this at a later date. I digress.

Real Unemployment (not fraudulent numbers like 6%) will disappear as we free the American entrepreneur, business owner, and hardest working labor force on the planet. Yes we will have to pay a little bit more for our products or services we use, but it will be our CHOICE. That money will also be spent locally by our own hands. Not ripped away from us by politicians who treat our labor as a game of Monopoly that crushes us with debt and sends our bravest around the world fighting and dying for countries who aren’t willing to pay the price to be free.

(2) Belongingness. Again for those of you who’ve read Late Bird you know how important this is to a free society.

In America we get our belongingness need met through our families and jobs. Currently we have more people on Welfare than ever in our history. The “thinkers” will point to the Depression (I will not call it Great. There is nothing great about a Depression) and surmise things were worse.

The only reason we aren’t seeing at least 60 million people lining up for food in the streets on a daily basis is technology. The EBT card replaced the soup lines.

To be a productive member of society and get your belongingness need met you have to have a purpose. Our first purpose is to take care of ourselves and our families. When you do not work you cannot take care of yourself or your family. You have no purpose. You are simply taking up space and our families suffer for this. Our communities suffer for this. Our children suffer for this.

The “thinkers” will tell you all life is precious. It simply isn’t. I’ve dealt with rapists, child molesters, and murderers. They’ve ruined and or taken innocent lives and will do so again given the chance. They are only precious to the “thinkers”.

Talk about progress.

Shoulder to shoulder brothers and sisters. Keep spreading the word. I am ready to serve you. To serve America. When we have enough we will serve her together.

I hope all are having a wonderful Sunday. I am closer to a positive conclusion and as this occurs will share the journey.

In the meantime I felt this column is beyond pertinent as too many have no idea how America arrived on the scene and how important the structure is to keeping what many incorrectly believe is their “God given Right” of Freedom.

God provided Free Will.

The rest is up to you.

God bless,

ARTICLE 4, SECTION 4

I recently had a conversation with an incredibly bright individual about western civilization (specifically Socratic Theory which was introduced through Plato’s Republic) and different types of government.

A question was then asked of me which I answered.

When I finished, a comment was made that my next column should be “exactly what I just said”.

Here goes.

Socrates theorized about different types of governments that started with Aristocracy and eventually succumbed to Tyranny.

In between the two are Timocracy (control by land owners) Oligarchy (control by a small select group) and Democracy (control by the Majority).

With the conclusion and success of Americans during the Revolutionary War a form of Government was needed.

Many voices including James Madison DID NOT want any of the five listed above including Democracy.

These voices wanted a form of government that protected the Individual.

Not just Kings and Queens.

Not just property owners.

Not just a select group based on the whims of the select group.

Not just the Majority.

The protection of every single American equally.

Hence a form of Plato’s concept of a Republic was put into action.

Yes, I am aware every American did not have equal rights as this was happening, but that every American does now shows the power of the concept of a Republic.

Had America been set up as a Democracy, slavery could still be legally protected, with the approval of the Majority.

So could the beating of women and the murder of homosexuals.

In other words Sharia.

Again the concept of a Republic is to protect the Individual.

The question everyone should be asking, regarding the Individual, is what does a Republic protect?

This depends on whether the Republic has any rules or guidelines to follow.

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the People’s Republic of China are both examples of systemic oppression.

They are both “Republics” but both of these “governments” treat their citizens as useful idiots to be manipulated, threatened, beaten, enslaved, and even killed.

The concept of a Republic can only go so far.  For it to flourish it must have two things.

First it must have Absolutes.

Very specific items that never change and are beneficial to the protection of the Individual.

Second these Absolutes must be enforced across the board regardless.

Our Founding Fathers created a document of Absolutes.

We call this The Constitution of the United States and these specific items are called Rights.

Constitutional Rights of the Individual American Citizen.

These Rights do not stretch to other nationalities nor do they extend beyond the border of these United States regardless of what oligarchical figures or democratic mouthpieces continue to spew.

In fact to proclaim that the Constitutional Rights of the American are also carried by any non-citizen is ignorant by the private citizen and illegal by the government “servant”.

This began with Reagan, and has continued at least through Obama, that humans from a wide variety of countries have not only been afforded the Constitutional Rights of an American, they have also been given the ultimate gift, through multiple amnesties.

The gift of Citizenship.

For almost five decades both political Parties have literally spat in the face of the American Individual to protect their own oligarchies ( a small select group) by using democracy (majority over minority) to build voting blocks and coalitions.

The Republicans have done this historically to protect what is called Big Business, and open borders are advocated for by the United States Chamber of Commerce.

Big Business wants cheap labor so profits increase.  I am all for profit but not at the expense of Freedom.

Of long gone Justice.

Of the Law.

The United States of America was set up as a Republic.

A very specific set of rules called the Bill of Rights was created to serve all members of the Republic equally.

Today’s America is a collection of oligarchies inside and out of our Local, State, and Federal Government that are using the “vote” (Democracy) to manipulate and control human behavior.

We still have the Absolutes but for them to matter they must be enforced and equal for all.

They are not.

What we do have is Free Will and for those with knowledge, a very real understanding of why our Constitutional Right under the 2nd Amendment was created.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS, shall not be infringed.

Shall not be infringed.

Let the removal of oligarchies and democracies begin.

Freedom First.  Freedom Only.

A Republic First.

A Republic ONLY.

First and foremost, and with sadness, I offer my condolences to my American Brother Mr. Mike Vail whose lovely wife recently passed away.

“Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.”

Always shoulder to shoulder with you.

Jason.

This week found banks failing, bailouts occurring and Janet Blind Melon Yellen confirming for the country that Liberal deposits will be backed but banks in the heart of the country are sh*t out of luck.

My only surprise of this entire endeavor is the surprise of the electorate who still believe things will be “okay”.

Really?

Then again I guess it depends upon one’s definition of okay as we know the term sober means something dramatically different in California than in reality.

Sharon Stone and Gavin Newsom both cried and lied about their relationship to Silicon Valley Bank but again no one should be surprised.

This is what Liberals do, I mean come on man, Propane is now the new “green” gas.

Global warming, climate change, California drought, masks save lives, blah blah blah.

This entire charade can be explained simply.

Let’s say you have a friend or relative that doesn’t work and doesn’t have any money. They approach you for a loan to get them out of debt, keep their cell phone on, housing and car from eviction/repossession, etc.

Of course you’ve worked hard, earned your money and saved while your brother-in-law is perpetually collecting some type of government check for doing absolutely nothing.

They beg and plead and finally you give in and loan them a significant amount of cash to get their lives back together.

“Equal opportunity.”

Three months later you try and track them down to retrieve your loan.

The cell phone has been turned off. Their house has been foreclosed upon and you heard their car was towed.

No good deed goes unpunished.

A week later you and your friends head to the lake to relax after a sixty hour work week.

You carpool to save gas, bring homemade food and foldable lawn chairs to chill. No one has a boat or any kind of water vehicle as you and your brethren are smart and continue to put that money in the bank, not aptly named SiliCON of course.

As your group settles in you notice a guy ripping by on a new jet ski and the closer he gets the more you realize it’s your brother-in-law who lost it all and still owes you.

He pulls up, recognizes you and of course without a care in the world asks for a beer.

Stunned you tell him you called but his phone was cancelled.

“Yea but I picked up a free one, one of those Obama phones.”

Getting angrier by the second you ask about the house and car.

“They paid me to leave the house, hilarious because I hadn’t made a payment in almost a year, and the car was towed when it was found in my storage locker that was auctioned for lack of payment. I probably won’t get the car back but I found a lawyer who is going after the storage company for infringing on my rights. He thinks he can get a few thousand out of them.”

Fighting back the urge to throttle him you ask about the jet ski.

“Crazy right? No matter where I go I keep getting credit card offers. I just send em in and the companies keep sending cards with different limits. I used the card to buy the jet ski.”

“How’d you get it here?”

He points to a truck and trailer in parking lot. “It’s my friend’s. Picked it up with Covid money.”

As he bums another beer you ask about the money you loaned him.

“Dude haven’t you heard, banks are failing, we’re in a recession, times are tough. I’m broke.”

Sound far fetched?

It shouldn’t.

I’ve personally witnessed every single thing you just read.

In fact this doesn’t even scratch the surface of how far gone our systems are.

Not broken.

Gone.

Our country isn’t corrupt.

Corruption can be rooted out.

It’s an entirely brand new world as we speak.

What kind of world you ask?

That depends on your preparation and how much more you are willing to accept.

Affirmative Action 2.0 known as Reparations is right around the corner.

At five million a piece banks will no longer exist.

Neither will freedom.

One of the more wonderful things about being an American is meeting those who love this country.

Who believe in working hard, in giving to others and the Truth.

Who believe nothing is more important than Freedom.

Nothing.

One of the opportunities given by the Internet is to reach into homes with my heart and the hearts in those homes reaching back.

This opportunity has given me hope, camaraderie, laughter and joy as I and my fellow Americans joined across this great nation, in an attempt to show a better way.

Along that way I discovered one Yvonne Trew.

Although I never had the chance to meet Yvonne in person, my loss indeed, each Sunday without fail she graced my life with her presence as she added a comment and a share to whatever I deemed necessary to scribe.

Ms. Trew, ever a positive light used the Internet via her facebook page to welcome the gift of each new day with a “Happy Sunday or Monday,” “Good morning everyone” “The coffee is on” and always finished with “Hugs and Love to You.”

Other items were added along the way, always filled with the truth, and many times humor, as I personally laughed out loud at one meme she entered that stated, “Judge me when you are perfect, until then keep your mouth shut!”

Also through the Internet I met two of her grown children, Benjamin and Kathryn, both freedom loving Americans, and it was quite clear Yvonne had done a wonderful job as a mother.

It is very rare that I am at a loss for words, but they all feel inadequate in my search to show my respect, to give my love to a beloved woman who sadly passed away so I will borrow from some of her friends who said it so perfectly.

“She always made me feel like family. Sweet memories of you will keep us smiling.”

“Your sweet presence will be missed. I pray God’s comfort for all mourning your loss.”

“Coffee will never be the same again.”

“She brightened my mornings with her posts. She was just so lovely. Wish I could have met her in person.”

I wish I could have too.

To my wonderful, intelligent and at times feisty American Sister I say thank you, I miss you and congratulations to a life well lived.

I’ll see you on the other side.

In the meantime,

“Happy Sunday and Good morning everyone, the coffee is on.”

“Hugs and Love to you.”
