The following is a news article that caught my attention.  Here is an excerpt from the article.  It is the closing statements of the entire thing.  But it shows what people were warning about.  They kept believing that the change they were going to get was a new style government.  However, it appears that they are about to get a New Style Government, were everything has to be decided by the government.  That is if they ever want to get out of debt. 

This may appear to be a broad leap to some people, but if you have been paying any attention to things that have been supported by Obama’s administration, you would not be that surprised.  My mind makes odd connections at times.  He is supportive of the RFID chip, he supports localized “Volunteer” groups for people to join, though if you get any government assistance you must join if between the age of 18-26.  It’s only three months though.

Then take into account the amount of people out there crying out against the current administration.  It has become almost impossible to not meet people that are either vehemently for or vehemently against the current administration.  It did start in the last administration, however, it has gotten worse since.   Bush didn’t need an armored HumVee to drive around in. 


~The Half-Penny Solution
Cutting the budget paper clip by paper clip.
“Mr. Obama has scoffed at critics who complain these savings are inconsequential. "I guess that's considered trivial," he explained. "Outside of Washington [$17 billion] is still considered a lot of money." Yes, Mr. Obama himself signed a budget bill with 9,000 earmarks costing more than $13 billion and then justified the expenditure by declaring these levels of waste minor in the grand scheme of things.

We now live in a time when tens of billions of dollars has become a blip or rounding error in the federal budget. The Administration has said it's time to take action in reducing America's "$12 trillion American Express bill." We agree, but at this pace, with $16.7 billion of savings a year and even assuming no new debt, it will take centuries to pay off Uncle Sam's credit card.

The way things are going the Government is going to be so in debt that the only way to save it is to take everything the people have.  Our Government is wasting more money every day than most Americans have to spend in a YEAR!!! 

I am not sure what can be done at this time.  But it is almost too late.  We as a People Need to do something.  Americans don’t really think of themselves as one group anymore.  You pretty much have about four groups. 

You have the North Easterners.  You know how they are viewed.  Snobby, rude, obnoxious and at times overly pushy. 

Southerners who are viewed as a bunch of red neck hicks who have nothing more to do than to go out and shoot their guns and drink beer. 

Mid-westerners, the good ole’ folk of the U.S.  The Corn Fed, white house, white picket fence, acres of land. 

And Westerners, Californian’s, Oreganer , and Washingtonians are the first to come to mind, most think of them as all crazies and kooks, or beach bums and air-heads.

Most of us don’t really even think of anyone else outside our own little clique as really “American”  I have been guilty of this myself.  Then I lived all across the country.  I got to experiance every part of the nation.  In the end I found that I liked pretty much a bit of everyone around the U.S.  and disliked a bit of everyone around the U.S.   

Truth be told, America was founded by a bunch of fed up rich men who were tired of sending all their money off to the King of England, and realized that he was too far away to do a thing about it easily. AND They Succeeded.  They got the rest of the people who were sick of the King and his taxes and got them to rise up and fight back.  They started out by just throwing the most expensive item out there.

More than likely, they were going to steal it and ransom it back.  Realized the boxes were too heavy and threw them overboard.  We have no proof other than written word, you change a Heroes’ actions to be Heroic, even when they do things that were not quite Heroic.

We HAVE come to a point where we are a Nation Divided against  itself.  We Must Unite, or we will Fall.

God Bless America!!
