Default What Is Wrong With Government & Big Business?

3-30-2009

“The price per barrel of oil is down- yet gas prices continue to rise!”

“Big corporations who were gifted with Billions of dollars, are still demand billions more to extricate them from problems that are of their own making. Or could it be that they consider “We The People” just an easy touch and they intend to continue on with the good life, while our people suffer further? “More Golden Parachutes anyone?”

North Korea, a pariah nation with whom we never signed a peace treaty after the Korean Conflict, now harbors nightmares of nuclear holocaust. And somewhere, within the frozen and hostile borders of this aggressor, still lays the remains of my wife’s 20 year old uncle, along with thousands of other loyal and patriotic American Service Personnel! They still lie restlessly beneath the frozen sod of a hostile land. An alien country that is still soaked with the blood of patriotic American kids who gave their all for God and Country. And yet within their souls, I feel that the hope still remains that some day, they may again rest within the soil of the nation that they died to defend.

And what about a few of our “International Friends?” Nations whom we saved from aggression and extinction in the past and who are now biting the hand that fed and protected them in their time of mortal peril.

Maybe something has changed with the passage of time, or could it possibly be that what a member of government once told me, i.e. “There Are No Friendlies” is fast becoming a Twenty-First Century axiom?

In either case, or whatever the initial cause, words alone no longer rule the roost. If we intend to still lead by example, we had also better lead by our actions!

And what is this thing called “Internationalism?” America, along with it’s economy, it’s people, it’s military, it’s true allies and our time-tested ideals, must again be “Our Nation’s Primary Concern!!”

“We must once again lead by example, and not from the tail-end of a foreign leash!” Time Proven American Values, and not world whim or international demands, must again be our guiding light!” This is, after all, what “Our Founders” envisioned, what our military fought to preserve, what our workers labored to build, and what future generations of Americans expect of us!

“Of Course, These Are But My Own Personal Opinions And The Last Opinions That I Will Give On This Subject!”

“VERITAS INFINITUM”

Default They are profiteers

They are all too busy scalping the system for their own personal profit. Had much of this money been put back into the company and made state of the art - much of this would never had happen. Look at our steel mills today - old and decrepit. They lined their pockets these top dogs. The good life for a few while the others suffer.

Watched a medicare special on TV last night. I may as well go out and shoot myself if I ever get really sick. The system is letting thousands die because they can't pay or get the meds they need. Greed and high tech system's have driven up the cost of medical care.

Auto industry - worst of the lot. They knew this day was coming and just didn't care.

Food Industry - are major concerns - too much of this contaminated food is hitting the streets - where are the inspectors? Are they also being paid off to look the other way. Of course.

HC - the US is in a MESS - fixing it may be way too late. We will bankrupt ourselves in the near future and start wearing the Japanese red dot or Russia cycle. They will own us if they already don't. This country has lost a large portion of its National Treasure - its people - they don't believe in the system and can't trust those who we put in office.

Yep - we are in great shape.
