Everyone is willing to say our federal government is out of control but what no one will say is to strip them of all the spending they're doing that is not constitutional.
I know this will cause outrage but please hear me out. And please read my post carefully. Too many people no longer recognize a difference between the federal government and the state government. To them its all just government.
The reason for this is that we have taken to calling our form of government a democracy when it is in reality a democratic republic. It is such a shame this difference is no longer taught clearly in school. I suppose the reason for this is because the teachers don't believe it and have an agenda of their own.
I do make a difference between the federal and state government as does the constitution.
The federal government was never given the power or authority to make sure that we were taken care of in our old age. Yes it would be nice, but it isn't their job.
The constitution never gave them the authority or right to provide us with health care.
The constitution never gave the federal government the right or responsibility of providing education for our children.
All of these things are nice but understand none of these things are free. If something is free for you it is only because someone else is not only pay their share but yours as well so you are just a free loader. If you don't like the term don't be that person.
What no one say is that we need to get rid of these programs. Most people freak out when you say something like this, but this is only because they never think about it.
First our wonder leaders (can you hear the sarcasm?) would have you believe that social security is broken or that we're not paying enough. The reality is that it's being robbed. Our leaders view all that money as something they can use now because they plan to pay it back later. How are they going to pay it back later? By raising your taxes! That was money that was supposed to be set aside for you in a fund that would gain interest and remain untouched so when you retire you would have something to live on.
They seem to think that if you were doing it you would spend all your money and then have nothing for old age because after all, YOU are too irresponsible to be concerned about your retirement, but aren't they doing the same thing?! Certainly they are less concerned about your retirement than you are.
So when they tell you its broken understand they are simply robbing from it!
Second consider if we stopped social security short today it doesn't mean you wouldn't have money coming to you. You DID pay into it and you should get back what you paid in just like THEY PROMISED. The problem is the money isn't there because they've spent.
Ask yourself what would happen if a bank did this? We have a contract with the government and they're breaking it!
Take a look at your check sometime and see how much money you're paying in every month. Imagine what you could do with that money if it were in your hands. Speaking for myself I could have almost bought and paid for a second home by now! That would be rent income for the rest of my life... much better at today's prices than anything I'd get on social security.
When you look at all the taxes you're paying think about it for just a moment what you could do it you had all that money. Speaking for myself I make about 55k per year. I get to keep about 30 of that. Do you not think you could easily pay for a private school for your kids if you had all that money in your own pocket.
Again the government is telling us that They care more about YOUR kids than YOU do! Are they kidding?!
You could actually pay your wife to stay home and teach your kids. With that kind of money you could buy some great teaching materials and if you'd had that all along you might even have already owned your home out right by the time your kids came along in which case you wouldn't have a mortgage to pay for so you would have another $12,000+ in your pocket for discretionary spending.
Are you starting to get the idea?! This is why they don't teach good math or government in school. They don't want you to think about these things.
Don't buy the lie that you will some how be destitute if they stop providing these things for you. They are taking YOUR money to provide YOU will something YOU gave them. They think of you as stupid because they are of course very ELITE people who know far better than you what to do with YOUR money.
Why is it your responsibility to make sure someone else's children get an education. To be forced to give someone else money is not charity. It has another name, they call it robbery!
The worst thing is they rob you and PRETEND to be Robin Hood... taking from those evil rich people and giving to the poor. The problem is that they take from you but then they feel that money is theirs' to spend as they will.
If they stop the public schools then along with that they should stop the tax for it. If they stop the social security they can stop the tax for that!
We have been trained to think that if they stopped public education our children wouldn't get educations because we wouldn't afford it, but that's only because we think they would keep taking the same tax and as things stand right now with the government they would probably want to do just that. But if they stop these programs then they can and should stop the tax for them as well.
You will not be poor in your old age. Your kids won't go without an education. You will be better off with your money in your own pocket than in the pocket of someone else.
So please don't whine when you get someone willing to make what seems like the hard choice and stop these programs. Instead support them and start getting your own money back in your own pocket.
We need people in government who are willing to REALLY cut things and return to us what is ours.
Any time a politician takes money from social security for another program that certainly doesn't pay interest they should be brought up on charges of grand larceny.
It is time to get rid of the tyrants and get people in leadership who really represent us.
