Washington D.C. & state capitals! Please Remember the First Rule of ANY Parasite...
It’s said of and by politicians… “if ya rob Peter to pay Paul, you’ll always get Paul’s vote… until Peter runs outta money!” With this joke if a “stimulus” bill, I think we’re there! Our current crop of (mostly Democrat) politicos in the “puzzle palace” known as Washington D.C. has bought this philosophy wholesale! The current D.C. “servants” need to seriously remember that to do their wealth redistribution plans, you gotta first have some wealth… and an engine to create future wealth. Otherwise your plan is a one-time event, soon to wither! You have to allow Peter to keep enough of his hard-earned resources that he remains motivated to keep working! This sadly seems lost on our new President and Congress!
Please Barack, Nancy and Harry, remember the first survival rule of ANY parasite: “Don’t kill your host!” The Turkana and neighboring African tribes are known to bleed their cattle, mix the blood with the milk for a large part their protein requirements. They understand much better than our Washington “leaders” that in order to keep doing this, THEY MUST KEEP THEIR CATTLE HEALTHY… and not drain so much blood they kill the animal! Also, unlike our current crop of public “servants” they revere and care for their “producers” … instead of heaping contempt upon them! Washington! Please learn this lesson!
The sad irony of this is, our modern economies run only on confidence! With REAL value money (like tied to gold) long gone, confidence is all we have... Sooooo, when G.W. Bush last September, and B.O. today scream "we must do this ‘stimulus’ or die!" it leads to the opposite of the (alleged) desired result... while supplying $pending it destroys the very confidence the economy needs! The first indicator is usually the world stock markets… feel the confidence!
Another sad “reality” is socialist governments (which we are rapidly becoming) only function well when the people are willing to work for the “greater good” which essentially is working for nothing! People have a nasty habit of not wanting to do this… until we can break the “bad” habit of folks working for their own interest, socialist experiments are doomed to failure!
HERE WE GO AGAIN! President Barack H. Obama… Jimmah Carter on steroids?!?!
