Why millions of Americans don't want smaller government

The answer is simple: Jobs.
The answer is also why corporate America won't support Congressman Ron Paul:
Big bling with a capital $ sign.
Where does that big bling go? Dividend checks from selling out American jobs
to commie counties like China. Corporate America no longer represents
America, they have dumped on the very people who built them. But, as the
middle class is now getting a glimpse of poverty staring them in the face
if things don't turn around, they're waking up to the reality that these
greedy corporations care nothing about US, only about their hundred million
dollar CEO packages. Remember what I said in an earlier column: Hungry
bellies make for angry mobs.
As scary and difficult as it is, Americans need to take a good hard look at what
they support, who they work for and do they really care about the long
term survival of this republic and their children's future? The destruction
of our nation has been underway for nearly a century and the buzzards
are now circling. America used to a self-sustaining, self-reliant, productive
nation. With the destruction of our most important job sectors, ag, manufacturing
and industrial from these evil trade treaties (
NAFTA
, CAFTA
,
GATT
), combined
with the grotesque, unconstitutional, stealing the fruits of our labors
to throw around the world, we are now close to a beggar nation. Congress
and the White House are bought and paid for in spades by mega corporations
who depend on wars to stay in business. Two-time Congressional Medal of
Honor Recipient, Major General Smedley D. Butler, USMC, said
it so well because he lived the Hell of war:
"War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something
that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside
group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very
few at the expense of the masses. I believe in adequate defense at
the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight,
then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only
earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to
get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow
the flag. I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy
investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for.
One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War
for any other reason is simply a racket.
"There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind
to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to
destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big
Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism. It may seem odd for me, a military
man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty-
three years and four months in active military service as a member of
this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in
all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during
that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for
Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer,
a gangster for capitalism.
"I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all
the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own
until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation
while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone
in the military service. I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe
for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent
place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped
in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits
of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua
for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where
have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic
for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that
Standard Oil went its way unmolested."
Congressman Ron Paul is the only GOP presidential candidate to bring sanity to the
issue of this immoral, unconstitutional invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Marxist Hillary Clinton,
Barack Hussein Obama and John Edwards release a lot of theatrical gas
on this issue, but are in the same incestuous money beds as the GOP candidates.
Hunter, Tancredo, Rudy Julie-Annie, Romney, McCain and all the rest all
support this cash cow of death and destruction. Ron Paul gave this speech
September 21, 2001 and I respectfully recommend you take the time to read
it because it will cast a whole new light on the current madness; click
here.
The military complex is huge. I know. My husband is a retired U.S. Army Colonel
who did a tour at the Pentagon. I also worked for DoD. This quagmire in
the Middle East has sucked up a trillion BORROWED dollars that could have
been avoided. Military contracts to pet companies of Cheney's run into
the hundreds of BILLIONS - all borrowed since there's no money in the
treasury. The consolidation of agencies into another useless monster,
the Department of Homeland Security, is feeding the economy big time -
for now: "But
since the 9/11 attacks – which spawned high-paying government jobs
and billions in defense and homeland security contracts – wealth has spread
to surrounding counties all within commuting distance of D.C.....Thanks
to the enormous flow of federal tax dollars into the surrounding area
since 9/11, Virginia now tops all states for per-capita federal procurement
spending with $5,104, according to the latest data from Census. And neighboring
Maryland ranks second with $3,908. "That's what drives the private economy
here," said University of Baltimore economist Richard Clinch."
As Ron Paul promises a pull out from Iraq and he certainly has no intention of
invading Iran, think those thousands of paychecks are going to vote for
what's right and moral? No, they will vote for crooks like Rudy Julie-Annie
or Marxist Hillary Clinton or any of the other presidential candidates
who continue to promise them jobs - the same as when Congress passed another
transportation bill to prop up the economy; see
here.
Paychecks and dividend checks from Blackwater, Boeing and others drip with the blood
of innocents. Paychecks from the various agencies of the Department of
Fatherland Security drip with the shame of being a participant in the
destruction of our God-given rights; freedom and liberty purchased with
so much blood by those who fought to birth this nation. All in the name
of this endless "war on terror" built on a mountain of lies. Maj. Gen.
Butler was right: Our military is to fight here on U.S. soil, not to invade
the world as bullies or "peace keepers" or nation building. This
is what those BORROWED war dollars buy. But, millions of paychecks
are on the line and tragically, when it comes to the U.S. Constitution,
jobs now come first.
How many people work for the IRS? 99,000 at last count. They don't care about
the law, they care only about paychecks, the same as the U.S. Attorneys
who prosecute these tax cases. The system needs victims to stay in business.
The same applies to companies like H & R Block and that whole industry
which feeds off fraud and deceit. IRS paychecks drip
with blood money. As Congressman Paul has promised to get rid of the
IRS as his first order of business as our next president, think those
tens of thousands of paychecks will vote for him?
The Federal Department of Education is unconstitutional and must be abolished.
That equates to the loss of thousands of paychecks plus thousands who
feed off that agency. This $56 BILLION dollar hole in the water for which
there is NO money in the treasury to fund, is not to educate children
in America, it is to dumb
them down and turn them into zombies of the state, programmed to shed
their patriotism for this republic and accept global government. Anyone
who believes otherwise, needs to do real research. Do you think those
thousands of paychecks will vote for a true constitutional advocate of
smaller government like Ron Paul? Of course, not. The majority will vote
for their paycheck. The same applies to the thousands of paychecks for
organizations implementing America's
death called Agenda 21. Paychecks v the Constitution.
The same applies to the EPA and dozens of other agencies crushing our rights
and freedoms and as my friend, the late Aaron Russo, titled his film,
we are going from Freedom to Fascism
and it all comes down to paychecks. With the continued destruction of
the private sector by Congress and the thousands of fools and ignorant
political animals who serve in the state legislatures, Americans are desperate
to keep their jobs. All of this spending from an empty treasury requires
more and more borrowing and as Peter Schiff, President and Chief Global
Strategist, Euro Pacific Capital recently said
in a letter to his 60,000 member data base:
"Do not get me wrong; electing Ron Paul will not stop America's day of reckoning
from coming. The piper will have to be paid no matter who is in the White
House. However, President Ron Paul will be extremely important if we are
going to dig our way out of this giant hole. Any other declared presidential
candidate will make the job far more difficult if not completely impossible.
Rebuilding a viable industrial economy will require a return to our constitutional
roots of limited government, low taxes, minimal regulation, and sound
money. Ron Paul is the only candidate capable of bring those reforms about.
He has already proven that his principles are more important then his
own reelection. He is the only man in Congress I know that power did
not corrupt. In fact, with Ron Paul as President, many others in Congress
might actually find the courage to vote their conscience as well."
Lou Dobbs summed it up pretty well, November 6, 2007, on
Larry King Live:
"Dobbs: I assess the campaign, to this point, for 2008 is -- is a pretty sorry
enterprise, to be very candid about it....When you look at the originality
of thinking that the Democratic candidates -- the Republican candidates
are putting forward -- there isn't any. We've listened to -- we've watched
the spectacle of Senator Clinton waffling on an answer on driver's licenses.
Then we gave her considerable time tonight on our broadcast to explain
it. And Candy Crowley tried her very best to try to have her clarify her
position. Then we have Senator Edwards and Senator Obama both pursuing
her to chastise and chasten her for her waffling and taking up a position
that is, again, not in the public interest, in my judgment.
"On the Republican side, we have Fred Thompson, who is, you know, a terrific
actor, a terrific fellow. We have Rudy Giuliani, a fine mayor. I mean
my God -- we have 300 million people in this country. We're the most diverse
nation on the face of the Earth. And in 2004, we came up with two fellows
from Yale -- both of them sons of privilege, both of them members of Skull
and Bones, one a Democrat and a Republican. And there wasn't a dime's
worth of difference between them.
Unfortunately, he went on to say this about all presidential candidates: "I believe that
there's somebody out there ready to step forward who has the character,
the capacity, the originality...I'm hoping that that person will have
enough concern for this country to step forward and represent the people,
to step away from the apparatus of these two political parties -- which
are nothing more than branding mechanisms. They are simply fundraising
organizations. People who define themselves as liberal and conservative,
Republican and Democrat, in this country -- there is no difference. Both
parties are dominated by corporate America and special interests."
Lou Dobbs seems to deliberately ignore Ron Paul, but he described Congressman
Paul perfectly above when he said, " I believe that there's somebody out
there ready to step forward who has the character, the capacity, the originality...."
Why Lou Dobbs avoids Ron Paul, I have no idea, perhaps he will say so
in the future. He knows and understands the bigger picture when he referred
to the Skull and Bones secret organization above.
Yesterday, Evangelical Christian grand poobah, Pat Robertson, endorsed a serial adulterer
who skulked around cheating on his former wives, lying to them, his friends
and children; a supporter of sodomy and baby killing. Rudy Julie-Annie
is the antithesis of a follower of Christ and God's word. Rudy Julie-Annie
claims to be Catholic, but the church forbids the filth of sodomy and
abortion (including the barbaric practice known as partial birth abortion
which Julie-Annie supports), not to mention adultery. This is what Pat
Roberston wants Evangelical Christians to vote into the White House? They
may as well slap God in the face before they go into the voting booth.
Congress continues to abrogate their authority via public-private partnerships
that create jobs destroying our republic, just like these massive, unconstitutional
agencies listed above. What this does is draw more and more Americans
onto government paychecks or paychecks from support companies of these
off shoots. It's also rampant at the state level. Becoming dependent on
a tyrannical government for the food on your table is what makes slaves.
As Peter Schiff said above, there's no way to stop what's coming. It will
be Americans who fight like Hell to save this country, not career politicians
and I hope you will be one of them.

"It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the
great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep
back my opinions at such a time, through fear
of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards
my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven,
which I revere above all earthly kings. ... Are we disposed to be of the
number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not,
the things, which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part,
whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole
truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it. Let us not, I beseech
you, sir, deceive ourselves. ... Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as
to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty
God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty
or give me death!"
Patrick Henry
