Obamanomics 2

2/13/09

From a news story ~

House approves stimulus plan; Senate vote next
"....... No House Republicans backed the stimulus measure,
arguing it had too much spending and not enough tax breaks. ......".

Note here, denizens of the demes, that the Republicans did not argue that it was a stupid idea in the first place to rob one neighbor to pay another. Nor did they argue that as a philosophical proposition, the entire thing should have been killed. No - They want their own version of Statism. Make no mistake, the State is the State, and it is coming for you and your pocket book - whether you are rich, or poor, or in the middle.

Do not be fooled. The Republicans stand for Corporatism (welfare for business) and the Democrats stand for Re-Distribution of earned wealth to the people that did not create the wealth or earn it.

And please, do not post any comments about how that $8/hr guy is the one that created the wealth. The only reason he has that job is because finance capital wanted to exploit itself and exploit him.

exploit - ex [ik-sploit]
–verb (used with object)
To put to productive use

This, my fellow Athenians, is the meaning of the word, regardless of what the Sophists would have you believe.

So then, when you see a bunch of illegal aliens building the highway interchange, and you remark to your fellow passenger "Look at all those poor immigrants. It is THEY that are building America." Consider that NO, it is NOT they that are building America. It is finance capital that is building America, and were it not for being able to have a pool of money "just sitting around" always looking for a way to exploit itself, so that it could exploit workers, there would be no freaking job for those oh so poor and exploited illegal aliens to have in the first place.

So then, the correct way to think about what is building America is that it is MONEY that is building America.


Returning now to the Obamananigans, I have a sister in law that at a dinner party told everybody to " .... shut up because our side won." Refering to the Savior from on high.

Sounds good to me, and accordingly, because her house is nicer and bigger than mine, I will stand back as the government comes to take it after "those on her side" decide that she is one of those that has too much money.

You know, that is the problem with the Obamaites - anybody that has more money than they do, has too much and, you know, we just need to confiscate it so that we, the anointed, the followers, the true knowers of all that is good can "....... spread it around".

Makes me and about 65,000,000 others want to puke.

"To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it.” Thomas Jefferson April 6, 1816
