I find myself in the
unusual position of agreeing with Vlad Putin and disagreeing with our current
president. There is just something wrong when my economic views are aligned
with a former communist and against the head of the free world.
This last week it
was reported that Vlad Putin said he will not prop up failing institutions in
Russia with bailout money. Furthermore he plans to slash government spending.
Over here in the free world ‘Bama (who knows best) is trying to bully
his latest bailout package through congress with the threat of total meltdown
if we do not dutifully fall into line behind his plan. No discussion is
allowed (we don’t have time) we are supposed to just trust him and pass
the largest spending bill in the history of the world. (Until the next one
in 2010.) Why? Just because ‘Bama knows best.
I have always been
told not to criticize a man without a better plan of your own. OK,
then, here it is:
Declare 2009 a personal income tax holiday. Slash federal spending back to 1995 spending levels that can
be supported without benefit of personal income taxes.
There it is - just
that simple. Cut, cut, cut federal spending and stimulate the economy
by letting people spend their own money. No rebate checks, no stimulus
checks, just KEEP YOUR OWN MONEY. ‘Bama’s cabinet can not
be against this plan completely because several cabinet members have been
working on their own version of an income tax holiday by “forgetting”
(how is that for generous) to pay their own personal income tax. We
should follow Washington DC’s lead here and simply declare an income
tax holiday for everyone’s personal income tax in 2009.
Since ‘Bama
picked our new Treasury Secretary who apparently does not believe in personal
income tax maybe ‘Bama really does know best.
If not, maybe we can
draft Vlad for President of the US. After all when you step back and
look at Russia and the USA they seem to both be working the same fascist business
model these days.
WRITE YOUR
CONGRESSMAN AND SENATORS and tell them to vote AGAINST the bailouts. Tell
them you are for FREE MARKETS and to let them work. CUT federal spending
and CUT taxes for the people. Unleash the power of the free market on
main street. Maybe while they are at it they can spend 2009 REPEALING
burdensome laws instead of passing even more useless regulations. NO
MORE money for the BANKSTERS! End the federal reserve! Break up
the banks! READ the constitution and the bill of rights and remind them
that they are sworn to uphold them. Prosecute the crooks on Wall Street
and toss ‘em in jail. Remind them that the Coinage Act of 1792 is
still in effect and that the penalty listed in the act for violating it is
clearly stated as a felony and “those deemed guilty shall suffer
death”. (No wonder so many politicians are against the death
penalty.)
Boy do I feel
better. Write your congressman and you will too.
In the meantime get
some of your assets out of the crooked system before it is too late. Buy
gold and silver while you still can. Refuse to participate in the
corrupt federal reserve system.
