People have been led (wrongly) to believe that Social Security would be a major part of their retirement income and Medicare would cover their healthcare. Both have been mismanaged and wrought with fraud. SS funds have been raided for decades. Since our legislators felt it more important to fund studies such as the sex lives of bugs, paying for monuments to themselves, restoration of Mosques in places like Saudi Arabia and Egypt (very oil rich countries), and aid to countries whose leaders live high on the hog by siphoning off most of the aid money while their people live in squalor. We spend millions on the UN which has become a forum and force for evil. Now there is talk of denying retired people who have contributed to SS and Medicare for their entire working life. That is despicable.
Our legislators have mismanaged revenues. It’s time things get set right. Stop handing out money on non-deserving projects. Let’s take care of American citizens first. Then if there is anything left over, we can take a look at what we can do for others. Tax money must never be spent on self promoting projects. There are Federal projects that should be taken care of by the states. Federal Education Department should be disbanded. How can Washington DC handle the schools in California or Appalachia when schools in their own district are failing? On what basis do the Feds feel they can run the private financial system when they have no clue on how to live within their means?
The Federal Government was established for the sole purpose of protecting the citizens of America. Yet they refuse to protect our borders but do provide special privileges to illegal foreigners at the expense of taxpaying Americans. Americans pay more for out of state tuition than foreigners with no legal status in this country. There are illegals with several children born here with all expenses paid for by tax money while too many Americans are dying because they can’t afford to pay for healthcare. Islamists from all over the world are determined to rip up our Constitution and replace it with Sharia Law. The Feds seem to be aiding and abetting this onslaught. There is something very wrong with this picture.
There are solutions available but our leaders do not see them. They have morphed into a type of special kind of royalty that has lost touch with the people. Just like the lords and kings of olden days, they look at the population as subjects to rule over instead of serving them. They have lost touch with the basis that this country was based on, a government of the people, for the people, and by the people.
America is becoming a top down ruled country. We are too close to being a socialist dictatorship. The Feds are employing socialist methods and justifying them with Marxist ideology, an ideology that has failed miserably. It is time to implement the KISS method, keep it simple stupid. Our government is too large, too complicated, and too cumbersome to have any semblance of efficiency. We must vet new candidates, pick the right ones, and work hard to elect them to replace those who are ruining America. If these new officials won’t size down the government then they too must be replaced until we get the right people into office.
