Why America is Doomed

This country was founded on a simple but ingenious plan. Minimal taxation provided for the needs of government, national defense and our basic infrastructure. Along the way, 12 years of free education was provided to every man, woman and child.

Our government was never intended to be a medical, charity or welfare provider. There was a “temporary” income tax to fund World War I that never went away. Politicians and their bureaucrats simply used American’s hard earned money like a narcotic and their habit would only increase in its thrust and hunger.

America became a welfare state not only taking care of Americans but every trespasser that could violate our borders. Our income tax system for collecting money also became a welfare system with every bogus kind of tax credits for those who were under or unemployed. A Social Security system was created for the retirement of the elderly. Instead it became a welfare program for narcotic addicts, drunks and malingerers.

Guess what folks? The bill is due and they have squeezed the very life blood out of Americans and they still want more!

The Liberal Governors are now demanding a $ trillion-dollar bailout behind all the failed banks, investment houses, auto makers and a never ending list of groups with their hands out.

As California hands out IOUs instead of tax refuund checks I’m wondering if I can use those IOUs as a form of payment for all the other taxes I’m required to pay? Can I use those IOUs for my mortgage lender, grocery store or dentist? I did not think so. Government simply refuses to downsize no matter what.

We used to have part-time legislators at the state and federal level but now they are all full time money wasters. I don’t have a clue what’s coming aside from a much weaker America and the welfare state will collapse. That makes it clear, that skyrocketing crime rates along with major disturbances are on the way.

Our founding fathers had it right the first time and if we are going to survive as a country we must return to our American roots. I don’t think we will do that so I can’t help but believe the American experiment is over. Say goodbye to freedom, prosperity and safety.

"Freedom" is a concept many do not understand. It does not mean you are free to do as you wish even though, ultimately, that is true.

"Freedom", in the sense that it applies to what the founding fathers had in mind, means you are free to create the best life you can by your own actions. Within the constraints of society, you are free to build your life as you see fit.

Sadly, as Paul points out, over the approaching-250 years since this country was founded on that idea, it has been lost. Today, "freedom" means you can do as you wish because "the government" will take care of you.

But we are fast approaching where "the government" is about to refuse to do that. Remember that, in this country, "the government" is ultimately "the people", and "the people" are begining to demand a stop to this.

"We" are the government and it is up to us to rise up and assert our wishes. In our chosen form of representative government, we are obligated to tell our representatives what we want, and to then hold them accountable in carrying out those wishes.

These bail-outs are careening out of control. It is our future and that of our children and grandchildren that is being destroyed.

"Freedom" means you have the power to determine your future. It is a God-given right and ability. As with the founding fathers, no authority has the right to take away your freedom -- it is yours to assert.

Assert your right. Speak and act.

For too long now the American motto has been "Where's mine?" and the pol's have pandered to it. We fought for freedom when we were under tyranny and we were motivated. We have had it too good for too long now and are fat and lazy as a society. We are no longer motivated individuals working together for the benefit of ourselves and society. We are now selfishly looking out for number one or our own little group and the rest be damned. Politicians throw money at every problem that pops up as they watch out for their political selves. They create more government to make us dependant on government. The latest $52 million Ponzi scheme will not even compare to our governments collapse from it's own Ponzi scheme. Be prepared for it. It seems to be inevitable.

Alex Jones from Austin has said, that the 'one world government' is not some bloated bureaucracy but just an economic worldwide swindle similar to the fall out we have experienced the USA recently.

All empires roll over.

In our case, the beginning of the end was a Federal reserve committed to inflation. Created just before the income tax!

What inflation does is it makes your dollars less valuable tomorrow than today. It takes the value of your saved dollars away.

Between the committment to inflation, the income tax and expanded government, and a dozen other ways for the system to screw us in favor of a few elites, you have it exactly right.

When the youth finally rebel against the debts we've imposed on them, I hope you and all others in the baby boom and X and Y generations will join them.

I really don't care what causes the youth of today and tomorrow take up. I will stand with them no matter what, as we have sold them to the devil before they were even born.

Chicago Cops Slammed with Sudden Ban on the Sig/Sauer P320—And the Officers Will Pay thePrice

In a move that’s rocking the rank and file, the Chicago Police Department has abruptly banned the use of the once-trusted Sig/Sauer P320 pistol as an authorized duty weapon. The order came down swiftly, leaving thousands of officers scrambling. The official reason? Alarming reports that the weapon can fire without the trigger being pulled. For years now the gun-maker has brushed off horror stories about negligent discharges, usually blaming human error. After all, it’s easier to blame the gun than admit to a deadly mistake. Just think back to Alec Baldwin’s tragic shooting on a New Mexico movie set—he insisted he never pulled the trigger, yet a woman lost her life. But experts were quick to point out that the revolver in question simply doesn’t fire on its own. This, however, isn’t Hollywood. The Sig Sauer P320 has a documented pattern of discharges—many occurring while holstered. Lawsuits are piling up, and the manufacturer continues to deny fault, but the incidents are too numerou...

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
