When I look at the broad scope of American policies and also its very actions I got to say "AMERICA YOU EFFING NEED GLASSES!"

I am simply blown away by how long Iraq has suffered under us and also why so much BS was allowed to go on there in the first place. The only places where infrastructure were hastily put to work after being repaired almost over night was the oil pipelines. Iraq is still struggling with the loss of their power grid. Now granted there has been acts of sabotage constantly plaguing Iraq but I squarely place the blame for that on the shoulders of Iran and Syria.

Did America go into this with an exit strategy? HELL NO! And Obama has no idea how to get us out gracefully! Considering that amount of sabotage attributed to Iran we should have taken every soldier we had and exited Iraq by invading and disarming Iran! Does America have the balls? Yes we do! Does our leadership? Hell no! All we have to do is push Iran to the Red Sea in a wholesale blitz! Let them fire a nuke or even detonate one on themselves. That would justify wiping them off of the map! What would that say to the world including China? Play nice or we will go POSTAL on your a$$es! Then we can take those assets and start poising them on N Korea and get that Fiasco over with.

What would that say to the UN? Time to get off of your a$$ES and either convince Kim Jong Ill's crew to behave or they are going to have hell come down on them from all sides as we nuke them preemptively to neutralize their military threat to Seoul and finish the war once and for all and this time no stopping at any line. We drive them into China and either China does their part to finally end this or they get to have us invade their boarders chasing the N Korean forces down like DOGS! And about Taiwan...

Leave them alone or we give them nuclear weapons to defend themselves with and likewise give Japan permission to arm up. Japan has been the MOST honorable nations post WWII among all of us. They deserve to have more of a military presence.

Now for my rant on Social Spending! There is what "THE PEOPLE" want vs. what is afforded in the Constitution. Common welfare did not mean a "Welfare State." It was a great idea but like Communism when people learn to live on handouts thy expect them and like the Aftermath of Hurricane Katrina well over 90% of those receiving free TEMPORARY housing had to be evicted! The Katrinians milked the housing for over four years! California's Social spending has finally hit melt down. The State is having to cut out all kinds of social health care programs and soon WIC will be getting the ax. Welfare already has been cutting people way back and off in a lot of cases.

Worst is the idea that as a population grows so does the income to these programs. Everything either does not take into account "population growth" and increasing demands on these systems and how when only a portion of a population is supporting the other part's needs that takes away from those providing where those NOT providing (INCLUDING CHILDREN WHICH ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH GROWTH AND UNTIL OLD ENOUGH DO NOT PROVIDE INTO THE SYSTEM!) into the system add on the demand. Now on top of this you add amnesty to MILLIONS of illegal immigrants who do not pay into these systems but take money from them (Get a life all you LIBERAL PANSIES!) this adds to the drain.

Why is it that ever answer to every problem in this country is to spend more, and tax more? They act like they can just print money! This leads into Deregulation.

The purpose of a Government is to set standards. They also are supposed to regulate things. Also to provide a common defense they need to make money some how. The government needs to collect taxes to operate and also to protect us and to provide regulation. But I feel America's Government more than anyone else has really lost sight of their purpose. If they deregulate everything why the hell do we need them at all?

The Federal Treasury is not government. It is Pseudo Government. It is industry run and that is the same thing as foxes running the hen house. They were the ones who were supposed to be preventing investment fraud and also preventing banks from illegal and questionable debt practices. Do they? Hell no. Under Clinton they got free reign to do as they seen fit. So many people who invested in their retirements under legitimate investments lost everything to the fraudulent ones and bank collapses due to over extending themselves on loans that went bad.

On top of that property values were massively over inflated by about double their real value. Speculation is allowed to drive our prices rather than REAL demand. Fuel prices going over $4.50 a gallon was not based on real demand but a push to see if we could pay it. Speculators felt we had the money they could squeeze out of us based on our demand for it.

Now for Mandatory Industries. With Mandatory Health Care insurance being imposed on us all guess what we face? Look at Auto Insurance! When you have a 'for profit' ANYTHING become MANDATORY who gets squeezed viciously? The consumer! When it is forced to be 'non-profit' like in Germany the costs and practices tame down a lot! On top of that paying a deductible for anything after we have to pay into insurance as a mandatory thing is like trying to get an extra pound of flesh! Americans are fraught with bleeds to our incomes making it more and more impossible to get ahead no matter how hard you try!

Basically since there are more "poor" voters out there they can vote for anything they damn well want.

What does our government do to new business? They tax the crap out of them. There is no incentive to start new business. If I wanted to start a manufacturing plant I would have to deal with labor unions trying to dictate how much I must pay employees and BENEFITS I MUST GIVE THEM, the government demanding huge taxes, and higher rates for power, insurance, and other "mandatory" costs to operate. So now China comes along and says "You don't have to put up with Unions here and you don't have to deal with offering them health care." Frankly I would go to China and set up shop and sell my products to you Sheeple at Wal Mart! People are in business to make money and when they can't make money here they leave like SO much of our industry has already done!

Government does not create Jobs! It creates a greater and greater bleed on everything as it gets bigger. More bureaucracy means more expense and slower operation.

I will not even begin to go into crap like Affirmative Action here.


I guess to sum it all up no one thinks into the future about anything any more. America in general just takes up a lance, don's rusty armor, gets on a rickety old horse, and charges all kinds of windmills assuming them to be giants! There is no long term planning. We just seek gratification here and now. We let industries lead us around by our noses (ENERGY POLICY! WHY ARE WE STILL USING FOSSIL FUELS INSTEAD OF BIO FUELS?). Look at what our demand for oil has done to OUR coast line in the gulf of Mexico! I would happily fuel up with Alcohol instead! Even Bio Diesel is better! Both when spilled just go away! Both are Bio Degradable! Both can be rendered from plants we DON'T eat!

This problem is so much more complex than I can go on about and sanely expect this to go beyond a rant. I am not here to dump some insane manifesto on anyone.

I am a proud American. Don't get me wrong. It is our government who has sold us out and they run us like a three ring circus. When are we going to stop them from making a monkey out of all of us? Or WORST... Sheeple in a petting zoo.


Now I let my fingers rest!


This concludes Andy's rant for the weekend!

I hate to tell you this, but it isn't, and never was "our" government. It was established by elitist Federalists behind closed doors and with no input from most of the people or their representatives.

As long as the average person and I'm not talking about welfare brats or any other type who will personally benefit from one party or the other, but the average go to work citizen continues to vote with party loyalty we will continue to take it in the a$$.

It is funny how people can be loyal to scoundrels and parties that really do not have their interests at heart!

Bück dich befehl ich dir.
