The current crap of Republican candidates for president leaves the country’s future in doubt. The issues are not as they seem. At least by what you read of the debates. 9-9-9? There’s nothing wrong with that. At least everybody gets skin in the game. But the real problem is not the tax system, no matter what you hear. The real problem is spending, rising taxes, and debt. 9-9-9? Then 10-10-10? And spending like it’s 20-20-20.
The immigration issue is a real mess as an issue. The illegals are not supposed to vote, so why worry about them? Why not get the legal immigrants to step up to the plate and say why they came here in the first place? You can be Polish-American or Irish-American (Though the Irish tend to be socialist, they’re patriots) but not Mexican or African-American. It’s time to change that. I know some patriotic Negro and Hispanic patriots, some of whom died for this country. Let’s show them they came to the right place and energize them. They probably care more than you do.
The best thing for the economy is Constitutional government. The problem is not a lack of jobs, but a lack of productive jobs that give back to the economy. Government jobs reduce the amount of money in the economy and are the most expensive waste of US dollars. Every time you start a new government program, you take a hundred or more jobs out out of the economy. The Government only drains the economy. Government is not part of the economy, stupid!
Now back to the current crap of candidates. Is this really the best we can do? Are you sure any of them have the right stuff? Then why all the whining and bickering? Have you chosen the lesser of two evils that could win in November so often that the good guys gave up running. If you quit voting for them they’ll quit running. So unless somebody steps up to the plate soon, we’ll just keep going downhill. I’ll not keep beating you dead horses and close with the famous words of Patrick Henry, I support the king because he can win in November. Not.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, go from us in peace. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!” —Samuel Adams
