This post is sad, but very true... (The first). It's the beginning of the end my friend. Open your off shore accounts NOW! Pump money in to them for 20 years down the road...
Face facts, it's simply math, really simple. And those who will use it, probably don't understand higher math or Euclidian geometry...
They don't need to, all they need to do is to vote. For those who will take from me, and many of you, and give to them and "their kind". That's right, that was a generalization, I'm a generalist! (not a racist). Why should I work hard and succeed? 12 years of school? 4 years of colege? graduate studies? An intern position? Years and Years of 60-80 hour weeks? And for what? To pay for a crack whore and her 10 kids? And their progeney? Yes it's math, and simple math...
Those who achieve, those who plan, those who learn, budget, yeah sacrifice, those with intelligence, those with temperance, those who are "responsible", they are the ones who are punished. And not unlike the carrier pigeon, or the Florida Panther, they will go the way of the dinosaur...
We're going down alright. Enjoy the last days (relatively) of our great nation. In another 50 or 100 years, the world will look back on our greatness. We'll be a shell of our former/current superpower self...
It is said that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts “absolutely”. Watch the evening news. Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw looking askance at the camera as if to say “tisk tisk” and talking about “the rich” and their tax cuts… They’re taking about most of the people on this board. Got a spouse? Combined income above 50 or 60K filing jointly? Guess what! YOU’RE RICH!! YOU BA$TARD! YOU DESERVE TO BE PUNISHED! Why how dare you ask for more money back from the government in the way of tax cuts? How can we afford it!!?? You have no shame!!!!! The writing is on the wall my friends…
When they lament the fact that there are no tax cuts for those who don’t pay taxes? When they talk about your greed because you feel you’re being over taxed? When they continue to throw billions and billions away. We’re gearing up to give billions and billions to Africa as I type this. Bono said “we will have to cheer this man if he follows through with this”. He’s Irish and I don’t think he’ll actually pay. Not saying he doesn’t give, but who in the hell is he to play God with my money?
I apologize for the rant, but this touches a nerve with me in case that isn’t obvious… It’s sick, it’s no different than a masked man sticking a gun in your back and demanding “Gimie your money!” And the sad thing is, it’s only going to get worse…
