Our money's worth II

Thomas Jefferson said, "A wise and frugal Government which shall restrain men from injuring each other, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned." I have news for you liberal Democrats, Hillary and Obama, you are not Jeffersonian. Furthermore, the two candidates for President are not J.F.Kennedy Democrats either. The choices they offer to Americans represent extreme, elitist socialism from their perspective as arrogant plutocrats. What Jefferson hoped would be a middle-class Republic will be replaced by the rule of the wealthy, detached class. Don’t be fooled. Liberal Democrats love to tinker with the machinery of governing, always trying to improve the running gear to speed up the forward motion of the machine. Candidates like Hillary and Obama, as plutocrats, propose further burdens on taxpayers with higher taxes and additional mandates that repress our rights to drink, drive, drug, smoke, feast, gamble, borrow, spend, party, think or work. Etc. Etc. Etc. Use your imagination.

Eustache Deschamps, a French poet of the 14th century, was not wrong when he said that human beings are endowed with reason but they prefer folly. An ancient sage defined all fools as occupying but two distinct divisions, namely; the ‘fool’ and the ‘d----- fool’. But between the two extremes of fools there is another brood. It is the sensible man or woman who is "fooled" by politicians into believing that the liberal Democrat party cares to save the tax-payers money. These citizens prefer to let "big brother" take care of them even though they do not understand the ramifications of their preference. These people shun private investment in favor of governmental control. Can you believe that the savings rate in 1988 was 7% and today is only .4%? These citizens use the excuse that they cannot get ahead in these perilous economic times even though ‘hard times’ always seem to move forward relentlessly with each calendar year. The Democrat donkey not only aids and abets these citizens but also twists and turns his tail to swat every conservative or sensible gadfly that dares to irritate his grazing on American pastures. These citizens are fooled into believing government is the solution. Barack Obama’s gaff about bitterness and small town America merely reflects his true, elitism, his dream cycle of government dependence. He claims citizens become bitter about government’s failure to deliver happiness, turn to religion until times improve, return to the ‘dole’ for solace until government fails again, at which time religion beckons. Luckily, reality doesn’t operate this way.

When the liberal Democrats are in control, flubs are normal and progress is impeded. Here’s an example of Democrat mismanagement relevant today even though it comes from our past. In 1934, in the midst of the New Deal, the Postmaster-General Farley requested Congress to grant him $525,000 with which to construct a government plant for manufacturing Post Office furniture in West Virginia. A responsible and reputable Winton-Salem businessman wrote Mr. Farley a letter offering to turn over his already well-equipped factory in North Carolina to the government for only $52,500 and to pay out of his own purse the transportation expenses of 124 West Virginia miners who could be turned into furniture makers. Also, he offered to give his expert services in training these miners for a whopping charge of $1.00 per year. Practically forgetting the materials, he offered free of charge, 400,000 feet of excellent lumber. This private citizen’s primary purpose was not only to help the Federal Government save $472,500 but also to bring an enterprise to his home city in North Carolina. Well, what did Postmaster-General Farley do to prove his appreciation of this gentleman’s patriotic proffer? He simply filed the man’s letter. Why? He thought like a liberal Democrat convinced that only government could do the job. It should not be new to you that F.D.R. governed as a liberal, Democrat and plutocrat.
One must also be alert to the piffle and coded words that you hear from liberal Democrats. The word "gobbledygook" was coined by a Democrat Congressman in the Roosevelt administration in the 1930's to describe the convoluted verbiage used to confuse people and facilitate their assent to numerous, helpful governmental solutions to their problems. Invest is a code word for spend. Change means more taxes. Hope means give up the tough struggle in Iraq. Equality means that seat belts, helmets, condoms, food stamps, stupid, lead-laden light bulbs and compact cars are for everyone; guns, trans fats, numerous children, a smoke-filled room, sugary donuts and carbonated beverages are for no one. Sharing the wealth decodes as socialism. Diversity and multi-culturalism means enforced, politically-correct quotas. A vote for liberal Democrats won’t get you your money’s worth or your freedom to choose. Rather it will get you to gladly volunteer to donate more of your income to equalize opportunity (another coded phrase). I’m not hoping for this kind of change in America.
