really random political rant…grr

30 01 2009

So, some of you know that I have a passion for politics and before God called me to ministry that was where I was headed. Well, I still follow politics pretty extensively and I usually end up getting really ticked about what congress and the president do. Well, the past few days was one of those days. Congress passed Barack Obama’s economic stimulus package–an 816 BILLION dollar spending spree. O, and did I mention that we do not have 816 billion dollars; which means we are going to print more money and devalue the dollar and my generation as well as generations after me is going to be paying it back.

What is more is that people think this is all getting pushed back into the economy when in fact 335 million of it is going to fund STD prevention programs. Last time I checked STD prevention programs had little or no effect on the economy. Also, people who do not have social security cards will be getting a refund check. So that means illegals will be getting money and tax cuts on taxes they do not even pay. I mean c’mon, this is not that difficult and anyone with any knowledge of Austrian ecomonics and our Constitution can testify to the fact that this massive governmental spending spree is not going to work. Government is not the solution to our problem. If we want to solve the problem we must let the debt liquify and allow these bad companies to pay for their mistakes. We need to return to what is constitutional and return to the free nation we are meant to be. I could go on forever but I do not wish to bore you with too much more so I must quit. Please feel free to comment.

Don,

Use your blog to say positive things.

Shedding light on what is scandalous and what is socialist can be effective in effecting the positive. Granted, I see what you are saying and most of the time my blog is positive (even though I only have a few posts). However some things deserve to be ripped apart, and this stimulus plan is one of those things.
