We Can and Must Fix the System

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.

The National Education Association of the United States and the Federal Department of Education must go

The National Education Association of the United States and the Democrat Party has announced its true intention without any masking. They have told us blatantly, it is control over the lives of future generations, even more so than they already have. We have been told that they intend to do the same thing that Hitler did by instituting his Hitler Youth movement and the Pioneers of the Soviet Union.

While Obama’s children are attending a private school, this administration ended the voucher program for all other children in DC. While the public schools are not good enough for their children, they have denied a better education for children of middle and low income families. They are determined to brainwash our children with Marxist propaganda, something they can’t do to the kids attending schools that concentrate on basic education; math, science, literature, and true history.

What has single-payer socialized medicine, immigration “reform”, a Cesar Chavez national holiday, special rights on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity and expression, special rights on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity and expression, abortion on demand, affirmative action, repeal of right to world laws, got to do with basic education? Nothing but these and many other things that have nothing to with education are all part of the agenda of the NEA of US.

Their goal is to prepare our children for a social paradise and a Marxist dictatorship. We must resist their efforts of enslaving future citizens of this once great country. The NEA must be declared a subversive organization with the intent of destruction of America as we know it.

Can’t We All Just Get Along?

Hell no! Why should we even try? The Democrats keep talking about compromise as if compromise is always a good thing under any and all circumstances. Compromise in politics is like alcohol. A glass or two now and then is cool. Guzzling down cases of “two buck chuck” is disgusting. So a compromise would be only a half a case, that is enabling the drunk.

The road that the progressives in Congress , Obama, and his group of socialists/Marxist Czars and appointees are taking America directly in the opposite direction the people want to travel. In the past two years we have witnessed a huge growth of government, unprecedented deficit spending, and loss of freedom, and liberty that has brought us too close to USSR style socialism. This trend was aided and abetted by an elite group of career politicians who are totally out of touch with the reality of life of the American people. They have totally discarded our Constitution and the reason why this land divorced itself from a top down style of governing.

How can there be bi-party-ism if compromise is impossible without trashing the Constitution and abandonment of our core values? If self-reliance, liberty, and pursuit of individual happiness is to survive how can we compromise with the Marxist edict of “to each one’s need and each one’s ability”. That means distributing the wealth? That type of a system cannot survive even in a dictatorship, as we have seen with the Soviet Union and the Iron Curtain countries?

Relationship of Big Business and Government

One aspect of Big Brother Government that is being ignored is huge corporations. Once a business reaches a certain size it becomes a bureaucracy with no resemblance to a capitalistic enterprise. By necessity, it needs to be administered like a government agency. The people in charge operate without entrepreneurish type risk. Its size makes it almost impossible to react to business changes in a timely manner. Rules and regulations are set in concrete. Individual incentive is stifled and replaced by adherence to dictated policies and procedures.

It begins to operate like a government agency and relates better to the government than to other business. Its goals change from operating on a profit basis to a basis of self perpetuation. It becomes more of a consuming entity rather than a producing one. The motivation is not producing a competitive product or service but to feed itself. The result is more blotted growth, less efficiency, and a dying dinosaur.

This is what happened to our auto industry and the real-estate and financial markets. Our auto industry (in general; GMC and Chrysler in particular) were producing cars that people were not buying and were not able to change the products they were selling fast enough. The real-estate and financial companies were being run by administrators with little or no practical experience of real estate or banking. Banks were making loans that no true banker would ever approve.

To survive, a company needs to increase its market share. But there is a saturation point where growth becomes a detriment, especially growth by acquisition of competition. This has been especially true in banking. Acquiring failing banks just postpones the inevitable, failure. The liabilities eventually erode the profitability of the acquiring banks. In a competitive market some succeed while others fail. Forced sharing of liabilities is just as debilitating to the economy as redistribution of wealth from the producers to those who only consume

Support of Israel is Support of Humanity

For the last four decades Islam has done a better job of marketing its cause than Israel and its supporters. They have been telling lies and changing accounts of history over and over again. A lie, if said often enough and long enough soon begins to be accepted as feasible. Then when groups with other agendas want to denigrate the supporters of the truth for their own purpose, the lie after time begins to look like the truth.

Capitalist democracy has been under fire by those wanting to change all governments back to the rule by few of the many. 1776 was the beginning of a new kind of governing. Governing by the people, of the people, and for the people took power away from elite rulers of the world. Over the years these rulers have been losing power all over the world. Islam is stuck in a seventh century mentality of ruling with power from the top only.

Those advocating a one world government are also top down thinkers. So, they see any opposition to a democratic government, such as Israel, as an ally, albeit a temporary one. One World Government appeals to those of socialist leanings, many times disguising themselves under the banner of Progressives.

All these forces are working together, each with their own and separate goals, to eradicate opposition to each of their version of a World Government. Israel appears the most vulnerable, making it target number one, for Islam anyway. In the progressive’s blind desire to make alias of those wanting to eliminate Israel, they have taken up their cause; not realizing that those they want as friends despise the progressives just as much as Israel.

America needs to become the world leader and champion of democracy that it was before. This will not happen unless all Americans realize what the founding fathers brought on this world in 1776. They turned those serving the elite into free men and women. Empowered them to be responsible for their own destiny and allowed them to achieve heights of success never before available. Support of Israel is support of humanity and the abolishment of slavery.

We need to use whatever sources of energy are now available

There is nothing stopping private industry to invest in alternative energy, except profitability and the vast amount of horrendous regulations, studies, and fees standing in the way. A solar energy generation plant in the California Desert was abandoned due to the high cost and time involved in getting permits to build it. A wind farm plan was abandoned when environmentalists objected on the grounds that birds might fly into them. These and other objections are standing in the way of alternative energy sources. The only companies who will be able to avoid them are those which hold favor with the government. This shows the true purpose of these stumbling blocks to California business. Their main goal is for government to have more and more control of the people.

It is against the law to manufacture solar panels in California. They are being built in India and other foreign countries which benefit leaving Americans on the side line. The motors for the wind energy generating farms are built overseas, again leaving American business out of the loop.

There have been no new refineries built in California for decades, environmentalists oppose hydroelectric plants, and even though natural leaking of oil is polluting Santa Barbara beaches and others, we can’t relieve the pressure by harvesting the oil. The cleanest source of energy is nuclear. Plants have and are being built all over the world because they are safer than ever but there are no plans for any new ones in California.

We need to use whatever sources of energy are now available while private industry searches for other economical ways. Government rules and regulations only stand in the way of our energy independence and economic recovery. Government is not the solution to problems. Government is the problem.

Stop the Eco Lobbies from Destroying California Completely

Sacramento has been running on a third grade mentality. They demand conditions that cannot be sustained. To build a house from wood one must cut down some trees. To be able to feed the nation with fruits and vegetables you need land, seeds, fertilizer, and water. If it is decided that a few imported bait fish are more important than thousands of farm workers and hundreds of farm owners, then you will end up with huge numbers added to the unemployment lines, bankrupt farms, and a stagnant economy. If a company must spend millions of dollars and wait years to begin operations in one state they will do business somewhere else. If existing companies keep having to pay new taxes, have them increase constantly, be burdened with increasing regulations and paper work they will leave California and start up in other states. If we are not allowed to exploit our natural resources we will have to depend on the products that can be made from other parts of the world making us dependent on others. Since the economy is so bad we can’t make enough money to pay for them.

Pristine is nice but it does not pay the bills. We need better balance in running our state. It is like if a person spends time making a car look good (new pain, shiny trim, new seats, etc.) but neglects the engine, transmission, and brakes, there will be a beautiful car in the driveway but it will not take anyone to work and make a good living. That is California now, looks pretty but is not functional.
This attitude is exasperated by those who have their place in paradise but refuse the rest of us to participate. People like Barbara Streisand and our governor who have all they need and could not care less about the rest of us. They are the people that cut down part of a forest to build a house. Once there, they yell and scream in the name of ecology when others want to move into the area also. BS they are just being selfish. They got theirs and everyone else must stay away living in crowded high rises.

We need to stop this socialist move of more and more government and reinstall a self reliant way in California. A people dependent on government is a people under tyranny. When government dictates to the people, there is dictatorship. When people dictate to the government there is freedom and liberty.

Let’s all grow up and do the right thing, stop the echo lobbies from destroying California completely.

How To Improve America’s Healthcare

Healthcare in America could use some restructuring. The main issue is cost. Across the board, costs have been increasing at an alarming rate. Some costs are controlled by outside factors (rising prices of oil, etc.) that cannot be controlled by changes to the healthcare industry. However, there are some changes that would not only curtail the rate of increase in costs but actually reduce current costs.

First, we need to look at healthcare just like anything else we purchase where the cost is controlled by supply and demand. Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers choose the field as a career job and expect to be paid a fair wage. A wage to be determined by consumer willingness to pay for it. This gives value to the service. Mandated costs by government are not based on demand, negating any value. This causes indifference by supplier and dissatisfaction by the consumer.

Any enterprise run or tightly controlled by government always adds additional costs to the goods or services provided. Invariably these costs out distance the revenues causing a decrease in value of goods and services provided. A system like this cannot sustain itself and eventually will need subsidization by taxes. Taxes collected for other purposes causing them to suffer lack of funds, as is the case with the Social Security System.

Just like not everyone can afford their own house or designer items, not everyone can afford optimum healthcare services. This is a fact of life. No government has been able to circumvent this concept. If the government mandates that a car costing $30,000.00 to build be sold for $10,000.00, future production of that car will not be worth even $10,000.00. The same is with health care. When the government sets the amount of money that a hospital is to receive, the hospital cannot perform the number of consumer demanded services required. It can only perform those that will be paid for within a specific period of time, leaving patients requiring these services waiting until the next period. Some patients will invariably die before required services are provided.

There are two main reasons for the continuous rise of healthcare, the looming threat of lawsuits and lack of competition within the insurance industry.

Many doctors and other healthcare providers must double and even treble their fees in order to pay for malpractice insurance. These costs are constantly being driven higher by lawyers encouraging lawsuits and well meaning jurors awarding outrageously high monetary awards. Imagine that you were ordered to pay millions of dollars to a plaintive for a mistake you made at your job. True a misplaced decimal point or not matching the color of the carpet to the paint for the walls does not carry the consequences of surgical mistake. An award of $100,000,000.00 does not correct a surgical mistake either. It does however increase the cost of healthcare across the nation. National tort reform would keep these awards to a reasonable level. Awards should be made in full for out of pocket expenses incurred by the plaintive, legal fees of the attorneys need to be regulated to a reasonable amount for services rendered, and punitive damages need a ceiling.

By reducing the risk of Malpractice Insurers, healthcare costs could be cut by half or more.

The cost of individual medical insurance (whether paid individually or through employer) is also a large part of healthcare costs in America. This cost is driven partially by the same circumstances as discussed previously but more so by lack of competition. Medical insurers are regulated by individual states. Each state has a small fraction of the number of insurance companies in America. In many instances the same company operating in more than one state is actually operating differently in each state. That is because they have to adhere to different rules and regulations. This curtails competition. Insurance companies are operating according to the dictates of the states rather than in the most efficient way possible. The consumer is dustily short changed and over charged.

By standardizing insurer requirements and liabilities nationally, every insurance company could compete for business in each state. Restrictions on forming monopolies would be needed to keep competition open and one company from dominating the industry. Government is never an equal competitor with private business. It can run deficits and have an unfair advantage since it has the use of tax funds to operate at a loss.

Competition in the market has always been the major factor in keeping costs down. Competition will do the same in health insurance that it has maintained in all industries.

This brings us to pre-existing conditions. No logical person would expect an insurance company to write a policy on a house that has burned down or a car mangled in a crash. Yet many of these same people see nothing wrong in expecting an insurance company insuring someone with a possibly fatal condition. Rather than making insurance payments while they are healthy and getting regular medical checkups, they decided to spend their money on other things, makes no difference whether this is by necessity or just plain self-indulgence. This is not the same as if a person with insurance for a number of years and then changing jobs where there is a different insurance company. But the new insurance company might now be burdened with high medical costs without the benefit of collecting payments that it can use to obtain interest from. Those were collected by the previous insurance company during the healthy period of the insured. This too can be taken care of. Every insurance company must keep a healthy ratio of assets to liabilities. By creating a national asset pool that all insurers contribute to. A company picking up a new insured with a pre-existing condition can claim some of those assets built up with premium payments and interest.

What about the many uninsured (estimates range from 30 to 45 million)? We first must define them. Few of these are in a position to pay for most medical needs they may have. A large portion of the uninsured are fairly young people believing to be healthy and not needing insurance. Without insurance they are very likely to join the balance of uninsured with no means to pay for needed medical care later in life. These people will in evidently become a burden on society one way or another. As a nation based on Judeo-Christian values there is a moral obligation to help. It should not be a government mandate.

There is a way to overcome this also. Nationally, the education system is grossly lacking in teaching self reliance and responsibility. In addition to the various math and other courses, the subject of preparing for the future must become mandatory. They must include money management stressing the importance of having health insurance, providing for retirement, and budget management.

In all the years I attend various educational institutes across America (grammar school, middle school, high school, and various colleges) few offered them and none had them as required courses. Lack of education has created a large group demanding new and more entitlements.

This nation cannot long endure an ever growing consumption of the earnings of others. If this trend continues, America will end up a nation of poor, uninspired, and miserable people living in a socialist state with no prospects for a better future.

When the government provides all, it takes away all freedom and liberty. Freedom and liberty is what made this the greatest country of all time.

Obama Seeks 3-Year Freeze in Spending on Many Domestic Programs (gag)

Even as egocentric as he is can Obama really think that the people will believe that he is moving to the center? The only domestic programs he is likely to cut is the military and homeland security budgets. He so wants the Islamic Leaders to take him to their bosom. His administration has declared that there is no such thing as Islamic terrorism. They told us that all the attacks we have encountered or stopped where isolated incidents.

This man’s policies have increased the federal deficit more than the last three presidents combined. If allowed, by the end of his first term we will have to invent a number higher than a billion trillion. To this date no one knows where all that money is. The health (not) care bill will cost billions and the total cost to the nation of Cap ‘N’ Trade can only be estimated because there is no limit to the costs that can be levied on the America people with this plan.

Do not think that he is becoming a moderate. Even if the pundits are recommending for him to do so to save his presidency, he is incapable of political moderation. He has been marinating in Marxist Socialism since getting out of high school. It would take a life time for him to dry out and sober up from his socialist binge. Even if he does sober up, he will fall of the wagon before you know it. No, this man’s goals are set and they are not compatible with America’s values

California's Prop. 13 Will Be Attacked In The coming Months

Most California Legislatures and many candidates will be looking for ways to increase taxes. Prop. 13 set the limit of rate increase to 2% per year unless the property was sold. This means if you bought a house in 1979 the property tax has increased 2% a year for 30 years. Do the math. Your rate now is 30 times what it was when you bought the house. That should be enough taxes. Sacramento must be able to run on the current standards.

These convoluted attempts will try to garner support by pitting different segments of the population against each other. They have tried and will again to separate commercial and residential properties and tax commercial property at a higher rate. This would affect every renter since the tax increase will just be passed on by the owner. Residential renters will pay higher rent. Stores and businesses will be charging more and/or hiring less to compensate for the higher taxes.

The other tactic by tax and spend legislatures is to lower the 2/3 requirement to raise taxes. There by reducing the people's will.

Look into the attitude of all candidates. Those who insist that taxes need to be raised to fix the California budget must not be allowed to office. California needs to adjust its attitude toward business and better balance business growth with environmental safe guards. People must be put first always. We must support candidates who will overturn (even if temporarily) AB 32 and reduce business taxes and fees.

Currently a business must go through years of environmental tests that will cost more than is worth the trouble. They can start or expand their business in other states without these restrictions. That is what business is doing and California is suffering.

Some candidates cannot see beyond raising taxes to increase revenues while others are beholding to union and other special interest lobbies.

Be wary of candidates trying to buy their office with exorbitant spending on their candidacy. These people have no idea how the rest of us live. Their solution is to spend rather than to budget. These are the ones we need to keep out of office.

Before supporting a candidate vet them carefully. Make sure they will be prudent with your tax money. Once you find the right candidate, work hard to elect him/her.

Climate Change Regulations to Reduce American Farmland

Continuing the rush to lower our quality of life, our government wants to reduce the acreage devoted to edible crops. They want the farmers to plant forests. This could potentially double the cost of domestic produce. Naturally this would cause a rise in the cost of imported produce. This farmland may be lost forever. The federal government is constantly claiming more and more land, creating national reserves. This eliminates the land from farming or other commercial use.

Who would benefit from this? Some farmers might benefit slightly from higher prices. These would primarily be the large corporate farms while the small farmer would be put out of business. Foreign produce importer’s profits would rise substantially. By raising the cost of living in America more people would be put on welfare locking in more votes for the socialists, who will also benefit while capitalism loses big.

Americans will be the losers as the socialist in Washington continue to take over. They are not satisfied with owning most financial institutes and all but one car manufacture. They are limiting the land that Americans own or use.

We must put a stop this. Vet new candidates, pick the right ones, and work to elect them.

Is America Heading Towards Soviet Style Socialism

In 1776, Americans conceived a government of the people by the people where the power is from the bottom up. Up to this time, the power in all nations was from top down where a few ruled and the rest had to go along. The people were totally dependent on the rulers and had no say. Not all people were given equal opportunity at first. It took a revolution, a civil war, and much struggle but by the beginning of the twentieth century, all Americans had equal rights and responsibility for their government, regardless of economic status, religion, origin, or gender.

For several decades, a movement by few has been slowly chipping away at the rights of the individual and placing more power in the federal government. Now, we have reached a point where this transfer of individual liberty to central government control has reached an unprecedented point in our history. The people who are robbing us of our freedom and caused chaos in our economy have taken control of two thirds of our automobile industry, are in almost complete control of the financial corporations, and now trying to take control of our healthcare industry. From who will get what care, to where medical providers can practice, to who can enter the medical profession is in danger of being in the hands of a few. The current health care “reform” bill will eventually run once privately own insurance companies, that is those that will not be driven out of business. This bill is not about healthcare. It is about controlling more of our lives.

The many Tea Party rallies have shown that the people do not want the government to control our lives. The legislators in Washington, the administration, and the many overseers (Czars) appointed by Obama, do not care what the people want.

They are determined to turn our country into a Soviet Style Socialist state. As it becomes more apparent that Americans don’t want this bill, those in power are turning up the pressure to get it passed. They will disguise provisions of the bill, lie any lie, threaten legislators, make any promise to get this monstrosity passed. They are that hungry for complete power over the lives of Americans.

The bill is so large and the wording so convoluted to fully to disguise the bill’s affect, that it is almost impossible to digest it. They say it will cover more people at lower costs with more services, impossible and they know it. Legislators are promised hundreds of millions of dollars for their state. Every dollar will have a hook, a provision that in the end will cost the states money and lose sovereignty. They are using terror tactics to bully our representatives into submission with threats of closing military sites and denying other aid. Behind the carrot, there is a big stick.

The people have let the government know what we want and don’t want. The government is ignoring us. We have to put the same effort we put into demonstrating our point, into making a change in Washington. If we do not stop this absurd move towards a Soviet Style Socialist state now, the nation will suffer greatly. I implore you all to vet new candidates, pick the right ones, and work to elect them with the same dedication as our founders had when they formed this grate nation. If we don’t take responsibility for our future, people who are trashing our Constitution will control our future.

Socialization of America Continues

On December 11th 2009 the House passed a bill giving the Federal Government even more control of America’s financial institutions and take away state rights to regulate banks and other financial houses by a vote of 223 to 202.

New powers would give the federal government the right to break up what the government decides are big risky companies or for whatever reason they decide. It also would create a consumer agency to police lenders expanding the “Big Brother” form of government.

Democrat leaders were also seeking to revive legislation that would let bankruptcy judges rewrite mortgages to lower homeowners' monthly payments. How totalitarian is this? This is a warning to all businesses. If a business sells an item on credit, and then the buyer is not able to make the payments, will the government reduce the price to a more “affordable” price tag?

The legislation would govern the simplest payday loan and the most complicated high-finance trades. The measure seeks to impose restrictions on every house of finance, from two-teller neighborhood thrifts to huge interconnected conglomerates. This will increase the cost of every financial transaction substantially and will be paid by all taxpayers. It will probably be a hidden tax, such as a “fee” imposed on the financial institution. In any event we all will end up paying more and getting less.

Is there any doubt where the Obama administration and congress under the leadership of Pelosi and Reid is taking this country? We must not allow their plan continue to rob us of our liberties. We have a weapon to fight back, the vote. Replace all those dismantling our constitution. Vet new candidates, select the right ones, and work hard to elect them.

1930's Germany and 2009 America

Is there a parallel between 1930’s Hitler regime and our present administration? Well lets take a look at this.

In the 1930’s Hitler blamed all the woes of the German people on the “rich Jewish bankers and business men”.
In 2009 Obama blamed the woes of Americans on the “rich greedy (republicans) running businesses and financial institutions”.

In the 1930’s Hitler took control of Germany’s financial institutions.
In 2009, Obama took control of American’s financial institutions.

In the 1930’s Hitler took over the industrial complex of Germany.
In 2009, Obama took control of 2/3 of America’s largest industry there by controlling many more businesses (manufacturer supplies, third party product suppliers, auto services, etc).

In addition to the incarcerating the Jews, Hitler began rounding up those that did not agree with him (my relatives ended up in concentration camps) and also those that just did not want to go along with his master plan (my dad was rescued from the Gestapo by his college friend who was a “fifth column” guy in the SS”.

Now Obama is asking his supporters to report dissidence to his programs, is starting a National Civilian Security Force (he does not call it that anymore), setting up Homeland Security detention centers at military posts across the nation, and his cohort Pelosi is calling dissidents “unpatriotic”.

In the 1930’s Hitler controlled every aspect of every German and most other European citizen’s life.
Now Obama is trying to implement egregious taxation on us with the cap and trade scheme to make us poor and control who lives or dies with his ObamaCare.

Hitler ran out of money so he printed and printed it until the German people needed a sack full of it to buy groceries.
Obama and his gang in congress have spent more money then the US has so he is printing money hand over fist.

Hitler made an alliance with Islamists to wipe out the Jews of Europe.
Obama is reaching out to Islamic organizations and Nations whose aim it is to destroy the only Jewish state.

See the similarity here?

ObamaCare is a Trojan Horse

There is a big caveat that has not been addressed (as far as I know) by anyone. This plan will also grow government, eliminate many private enterprises, and exercise more control over the lives of Americans.

As people end their participation in a private health insurance plan they will be forced to take on ObamaCare. The lose of insured by the insurance companies combined with the ability of ObamaCare to undercut the cost (the government has no problem running in the red) will drive many insurance companies out of business. Eventually ObamaCare will either take over the control of or replace private hospitals with federal clinics.

This will increase the size of ObamaCare requiring more union federal employees (with the enthusiasm and efficiency of a DMV employee), not only growing the government but giving it more control over more people, the ObamaCare employees and the patients will now dependent totally on ObamaCare.

The government now controls 2/3 of our auto industry (manufactures, suppliers, and after market producers and suppliers). The Administration with its Czars is pulling all the strings on our financial institutions and this destruction of the insurance industry and elimination of private hospitals will just about take over the whole enchilada.

The next arena for the Obama Administration and congress under the leadership of Pelosi and Reid is to get more control over institution of higher learning. They are contemplating prohibiting college loans by private lending institutions. Just think what power that will give them over the curriculum. The schools will be forced to produce more and more socialist dupes cementing this country in a Socialist Utopia.

And oh yes, you are aware that the National Socialists are planning to repeal term limits on the presidency, aren’t you? Just think, Obama will be eligible to be president for life. Isn’t that just peachy?

Americans have bent over to pick up the soap and the feds have grabbed us all by the waist. Soon we will all experience discomfort we were not planning on.

California’s Economic Crisis

California is in a crisis due to unrealistic restrictions on business and the people, primarily brought on by the eco-lobbies and the explosive growth of government.

These restrictions have shackled California economy to a standstill. Acres of the most productive agricultural farm land have gone fallow because of the protection of a non-indigenous fish that will vanish in any case. California legislatures have decided that, that fish is more important than the livelihood of thousands of farm workers and the owners of these farms. This affects the California economy both on the wage and productive side. Farmers are not able to grow crops, wage earners are out of work, and California economy suffers.

California has enough offshore oil deposits to be almost oil self-sufficient. Yet the eco-lobbies have put up road blocks to a booming economy. The lack of refineries requires gasoline to be trucked or piped into the state. California has not built a new refinery in decades.

The answer to California’s economic crisis is to clean house. We need to get rid of the bureaucratic impediments to success, cut the cost of government, and generally streamline the operation. California is not benefiting from the number of people appointed to positions with six figure salaries meeting three of four times a year, many can be combined. Governments in California have grown at rates far beyond population growth. When the ratio of government workers to the general population grows and grows each non-government worker has to support more and more government workers.
It is time for California and the nation to splash on some cold water, take a good look around, and see what is happening. If we don’t put a stop to things each person in the private sector will be supporting two or more government workers. That kind of a society can not sustain it self.
