News of Socialism

A friend received a US government questionaire in the mail.

She said it wanted information that an identity theft could use.  We didn't think it was real.

My wife called and got a number from our State Attorney General. and she called Washington DC.

She was told the questionaire was real and was required by law. 

It also stated this on the questionaire with the number code of the law.  When they were asked what the penilty was if it wasn't filled out.  They said they didn't know; But that we would probably be receiving a knock at our door if we didn't fill it out.  They said it would only take about 47 minutes to fill out.

Our friend can do what she wants; But if it had come to us we wouldn't fill it out.

We are going to tell her since she voted for Obama:  They just want to get her ready for Socialism.

She does believe in Socialism;  But is presently mad at Obama for wanting to spend so much of her tax dollars at a time when the government is so broke.

I heard on the radio today that in the UK a 55 year old man was turned down for a hip replacement because he was too old and didn't have enough lifetime left to make good use of it. 

A doctor we know said the reason he moved from Canada.  He said people went on waiting lists for months at a time waiting for treatments.  Many older people have to wait too long and die before receiving their needed treatment.  He is now a citizen of the US and a very good doctor.

I heard a story of a grandmother in Australia who tracked down to men who had raped her grand daughter.  She found and took a picture of them without them knowing it and her granddaughter identified them.

She returned and when one man opened up the door she shot off his private parts.  Then did the same to the other man.  She walked to the police station and turned her self in.  She said when the government took everyone's guns, she didn't turn hers in.  She said she thought she might need it some day.  The doctors said the mens use of their private parts will never be the same. 

The police said what grandma did was against the law but with so many people supporting her, the 81 year old lady would probably not go to jail.

Welcome to the Land of Kos (as in Daily Kos).

A government-run computerized national medical records system, with D.C. beaureacrats making medical decisions that can overrule you or your doctor, is in the spendulus bill. 

I'm loving all of these comparisons of Obama with Lincoln.  When I think of Lincoln, I think of a man who started the bloodiest war in American history against a part of the country that wanted to go its own way - the part that by the way paid most of the taxes, which were then spent on government pork barrel projects in the part that elected Lincoln.  I think of a man who didn't particular like his political opponents, so habeous corpus was suspended, and political opponents were locked up in military prisons (Forts McHenry and Delaware both come to mind), or deported (Congressman Vanlandingham from Illinois).  I think of a man who was so popular that Indiana, Illinois and Iowa were all threaten secession as late as 1863.  Now, the Democrat lead government is making noise about trying Bush and members of administration from crimes against humanity, and forcing conservative commentators off the airwaves (no talk of censoring ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, the NYT, LAT, CT, SFC, AJC or other outlets of the left).  I also think of a man who didn't free a single slave (actually read the Emancipation Proclamation, it's obvious very few reporters have ever read it).

Gibbon's "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" might also make good reading.  Bread and circuses was the mantra.  Keep the little people on the dole, and keep them entertained, and the leaders can do pretty much as they want.  Until the whole house of cards collapses.

You, me and Hawk are old enough that little of this is likely to overly affect us.  All of it will affect our children and grandchildren.

Oh well.

I heard that Judd Gregg R. N.H. withdrew his name from his nomination as Commerce Secretary.

He said his ideals were not in line with Obama's ideals.  I wonder if Obama's moving of the Census bureau to under his direct control, was a part of the problem.  If the census numbers were massacred, Gregg could get the blame for any changed numbers and programed errors.  This could be blamed on the republican.

Seattle had a conference where Global Warming was discussed.

A new term was batted around: Climate refuges.  These would be the people that will be escaping the heat from areas where Global warming would be extreme resulting in many deaths.

It was noted that planning would be needed to take care of these people.

It was estimated that it would be about 75 years before there would be a problem.

I guess these Prophets would be dead by then and being wrong not a problem for them.

This questionnaire from the government is a US Census Bureau questionnaire now under Obama's direct control.  This information gathering activity is basically being taken away from the Commerce Commission by Obama.  I think it is being used to collect data for Socialistic activities.  2010 is the next census time.

If not filled out there are penalties. 

$100.00 for every question not filled out.

#500.00 for every question not filled out correctly.

The Questionnaire has 28 pages.

The way the questionnaire is constructed the total number of questions depends upon how many people live in your house.  There could be a required total well over 100 questions.

Under Census rules, if the form is not filled out, the fine could be over $1,000.00 dollars.

Over the last few days I've been reading about a military US brigade that was made up of an elite group of solders from a number of military units.  The government says they are now stationed in the US to protect the people from terrorist attacks.  Solders are saying they are being trained to read body language when households are ask if they have any weapons, who owns them, how many do they have, what kind and where are they kept.  Census reports are asking these same questions.

The military has the ability to look into you house from a helicopter and see what you have.  They use ground penetrating radar that can see down 8 feet below ground level. 

Could this be the beginning of a taking of weapons from citizens to create weapons free zones?

A number of countries do not allow private ownership of guns and other weapons.  I'm sure the crooks will own weapons. 

Supposedly, Home Land Security man power is growing in size taking in the best of the most elite troops from the military.  I don't know much about this.  Maybe this is the start of the military Obama said he wants to create, that will be of equal power to the US military.

That was interesting.

The way it is going we may be getting an Obama for profit religious corporation.

Thinking about religious deviations,  Net Serving could be a religion. 

With goverments now looking at ways to tax the internet,  We may need another tax exemption.

Obama frosts me sometimes.

 

Obama adds over a Trillion dollars to our national debt, then says we need to do something about the national debt he inherited.   Before Obama was elected President, The first Stimulus bill pasted with a bi-partisan vote.  Obama and the liberal majority in congress voted for it as did many republicans including Bush.  Now Obama says we need to reduce this debt that was created by someone else, not by him.  he says it should take him about 3 years.  But, the way he is going about it, I doubt that.  It could take much longer as Obama;s method has never been historically successful.

He told congress they had to pass his newest stimulus package without reading it.  He said he needed to sign it immediately.  His threat was if they didn't pass it quickly he might have to declare Marshal law and bypass congress.  So congress passed it without reading it and Obama left on a vacation without signing it until a few days later when he went to Colorado.

So what was the hurry.  If congress read it, maybe he was afraid that they might not pass it with all the pork and payback money in it.

I suspect that the trend to ignore the Constitution and have liberal judges protect the guilty who misuse it, will continue.  There is no penalty unless the judges agree on one. 

Japan had a similar economic problem and they also threw money at it and it didn't work.  It took 10 years and a change in strategy by reducing taxes to start the healing process for their economy.  Their economy was still recovering when the liberals in the US, with the support of some Conservatives, spearheaded the de-regulation of the banking industry. That started the home loan debacle and the eventual busting of the financial bubble.  The Elitists are still profiting as they control this decay of our freedom and I believe of our economy.   They have pulled stocks from the market causing its' fall and they hold a lot of cash.  They have been able to hold up the value of the dollar with the help of countries like China who continues to hold a vast amount of US currency and US Treasury bills.   

Should China unload its' American cash, the value of the dollar will quickly fall.  But this could hurt China more as the exchange rate would become unfavorable for the export of their goods.  Eventually they will turn inward as their power base grows and will not need to export as much as they do now.  Lucky for us their homeland market is still developing.

As the China's homeland market grows the elite will move out of cash and the dollar's value will undoubtedly no longer be held artificially high.  It could go into free fall.   

Today, no one seems to understand how to fix the US economy without first hurting it more.  It took Reagan about a year full of problems by reducing taxes before he was able to grow the economy into the black. There was no deep debt, Obama style bailouts.  What followed was the strongest economy the US has ever had.   It would seem like the Reagan plan should be looked at.  But then it was not a Socialistic plan so dire mistakes of judgment may continue to be followed.

BUT THEN, maybe being concerned about our future is just a waste of time.  Few people seen to care.

For the next stimulus, obama has limited the amount of pay for executives to no more than $500 thousand.

Today companies that are in line for a stimulus giveaway are giving their executives raised up to this amount.  Some of the raises are 3 times with the original salary was.  Apparently this increases the company's loss and increases the amount of stimulus they can receive.

Obama's stimulus giveaway is a shell game.

The American free press about the Bilderbergs meeting in Greece.

"Sources within Bilderberg said President Obama will be instructed to make another effort to get the United States to sign on to the International Criminal Court. The ICC treaty, if ratified by the Senate, would be superior to the Constitution, able to overrule Congress and the Supreme Court and impose

More steps toward Socialism

I read that cities in Washington State no longer have to ask the taxpayer before their property is annexed into a city.

Our cities fathers now can make that decision for us and we have no say.

Property values dropped but not property taxes.  We are told that property is accessed about every three years and we will have to wait.  But when they needed money a while back when prices for houses went sky high, they made a new assessment each year.  It is OK to take our money but not give it back.

We voted down our high auto license fee to a reasonable amount.  So they added different types of auto fees to make up the difference both direct and indirect that are pass-along fees.

They are looking for ways to tax computer use.  (Purchase taxes, Time on line fees, download taxes, Server fees and so on)

I listened to a man this morning say indirect taxes are the best, because people don't see them.  They just add to the cost of something.  That is like my neighbor plugging into my electricity.  I don't see him stealing my power, but, I will see a higher power bill. 

I wish people would wake up and see where the US is heading.  It is almost too late now.  We are losing our freedom to control freaks.

I've been taking around a partition to re-instate our right to vote for or against being annexed into a city.

So far not one person has refused to sign the partition.  I guess there is still hope for keeping our freedoms.

But, then our liberal courts could throw out our partition.

Our Liberal state congress is now working on a bill to make gun shops, gun clubs and firing ranges illegal in our state.

One of Washington's larger cities has figured out how to increase city income.

They are going to ticket shopping carts that are parked illegally.

It seems a fair number of shopping carts are removed from super markets by people who do not take them back.

The new ordinance requires Markets to put their name on the carts so they can be charged a fine.

What these pointy head politicians don't seem to understand is that the markets just pass costs on by increasing food costs.

The politicians also seem to be missing the point that it isn't the supermarkets who are losing the carts, but consumers who are not returning the carts.

So the politicians levy fines on the supermarkets.

Talk about trying to drive businesses away, that's just plain stupid.

Now that Socialized Health care is so close to becoming law in the US, I found some interesting comments.

"The White House is sensitive to the fact they're doing something against the majority's will," .... "They're saying that as time goes on, people will appreciate it is the right thing to do, which is basically saying, 'We know more than the public.' And that gets into another philosophical debate
