Get the truth!

The Media and the Politicans are not telling the whole story, or are only providing a portion of the truth, and in most cases whatever you hear is partially inaccurate or a distortion of facts to suit a particular purpose or message. My goal is to tell the truth and provide facts that complete the entire story.

Politicians are the problem-BALANCE THE BUDGET

I originally posted this back on April 2012. Amazing how nothing is really any different......

Why do we let them get away with it? Every day without fail, Obama or some other politician will make a statement as to things that are wrong that somehow they, the brilliant politicians, have a solution to. In Obamas case it is always to criticize successful people, blame big business, and talk about his solutions. And his solution is ALWAYS to add a commission or a department to oversee and regulate it. And our media lets him speak. But why? Isn’t Obama sitting on top of the most corrupt, dysfunctional, financially irresponsible entity the world has ever known? Wouldn’t most CEO’s be fired for the organization he takes credit for running? The fact that he is allowed to speak at all about anything simply shows how ignorant we all are as a society. Folks, our government spends $1.3 trillion more than it takes in every year while carrying a balance sheet showing a $15 trillion liability that it has no clue how it will pay back while borrowing each and every day another $3.5 billion while espousing about everything else that is wrong with America and all of the big businesses and fat cat capitalists that are so corrupt. Our government by their own definition is the most corrupt organization on the planet. If they had any guts, you would see Obama and our legislatures calling for a congressional hearing on THEMSELVES!!! But once again, we sit and watch like sheep while giving them all a “pass” to not do anything and try and blame a government gone wild on others. It is time to say STOP IT and BALANCE THE BUDGET. Just like every other business on the planet. The same ones our government criticizes. The same businesses that employ our citizens and can keep employing them by responsibly running their respective businesses, not borrowing too much, and staying profitable (that dirty democrat word). Intellectually we may all know that it doesn’t make sense. And how and where did this extra $1.3 trillion in spending come from? The single most important thing that government should do above everything else is balancing the budget. And not by taxing the life out of the few people that are actually paying taxes. Let’s have a fair tax plan where everyone has some skin in the game. And let’s order the politicians to stop spending more than they have. A Balanced Budget Amendment should be the first order of business. Make it LAW!!!! And then, here's a novel idea,  put the politicians in jail when they don’t comply with the LAW. Remember they are quick to throw the Enron’s and bankers in jail for their failings in business. Supposedly those CEO’s knew what they were doing and were not acting within their shareholders best interests or the public interest. Do you think that allowing our politicians a total “pass” to spend spend spend beyond what they have (and they know it) is any different????
Let’s be practical….make a Balanced Budget Amendment take full effect in say 5 years. But not 20 years. It needs to start now! Balancing the budget it the most important thing our government should be doing. I am certain that single act will also help to solve our economic problems. Getting the government out of our business (by cutting their interference out by requiring a balanced budget) will help the economy.
