I’m no longer even going to try and claim that this will be a regular feature. I will try, but there is no way I can be sure of when I will get another entry submitted. But since so many of you send me friendly pokes as to when I am going to post another Rant….well….here you go!!
1. OCCUPY THIS!! Funny how all our liberal friends were so happy about the Occupy movement. Pelosi, Obama, Biden and many more Democrats were so happy to finally have some sort of grassroots movement; then reality set in. Now it seems the Occupy movement has become the victim of its own delusional direction, or lack thereof, and a further victim of the three “D’s” otherwise known as Illegal Drugs, Idiotic Demagoguery, and Public Defecation.
2. The Super-Committee…..FAIL!! It’s not so amazing that all our federal congressmen thought the American public would believe it; it’s that they actually went through with it. Like we didn’t know what was going to happen, and not because it was necessarily a bad idea, but because there was/is NO leadership associated with it, not from the House, the Senate, nor from the White House. And who will pay for this failure? Go look in the mirror! Democrat, Republican, Socialist, Green, Libertarian, or Independent; no one should be happy with it and everyone should be requiring answers from all those involved in its creation and failure.
3. The President said recently that he is committed to stopping Iran from attaining nuclear weapons by working with Russia and China to establish new stricter sanctions. The only problem with this is that Russia and China are two of Iran’s largest, and main, trade partners. I wonder if any of the President’s advisors reminded him of that before he read his plan off the teleprompter?
4. If we want people to have more respect for the taxes they pay then let’s do away with withholding taxes and let everyone pay their taxes by writing a check to pay their monthly or quarterly taxes just like the self-employed. I think if everyone had to actually write the check and see that money actually go out of their checking account and see how much they are actually missing….well….I imagine they’d pretty much take a much closer look at just how the government spends our tax money.
Well I know this is a little short but it is late and I am pretty tired from trying to figure out what the judicial folks are going to do with our redistricting maps!!
Talk To You Later,
Bill
Great post. And spot on, as always.
ReplyDelete#4. I've been saying that for years. As soon as Joe Average Citizen has to send a check to pay his taxes, you'll see a tax revolution in this country.
