America On The Fast Track to Financial Meltdown

How many Americans realize that every week Obama holds the office of the Presidency, our national debt increases by BILLIONS of $$. As I write this, the National Debt stands at $13,052,900,450,990. For those folks who cannot count when they run out of fingers and toes, yet are able to vote, this translates to thirteen trillion,fifty-two billion,nine hundred million, four-hundred fifty thousand, nine-hundred ninety dollars. Since Obama took office the national debt has increased $2.5 trillion dollars.
This debt is frightening to the security and strength of America. However Obama and his cohorts in the Democrat controlled Congress, ignore the debt and just march on passing liberal legislation that will substantially increase the national debt. Obama and the Democrats in Congress are enjoying their power and thumbing their noses in arrogance to the majority of the American public. I have to wonder if the President and Congress's actions are a display of incompetence or a deliberate attempt to weaken America. I would hope that the modus operandi of our elected representatives in spending money like drunken sailors is not an intentional act to destroy America. In truth, I believe Obama and his Democrat progressive liberal cohorts are engaged in reshaping America into a socialist nation, with government controlling every aspect of its citizens lives. President Obama is narcissistic and an emotionless sociopath on a quest to become a President for Life Dictator. The liberal, progressive Democrats are committing political suicide by supporting Obama's agenda, but are so Washingtonized, they believe they can continue to mesmerize and lie to the constituents in the states and district's they represent and, while enjoying aid from the corrupt mainstream media, remain in power. Sadly, they may be correct in this assumption. Millions of politically ignorant, intellectually and morally corrupt voters, will vote for the political candidate who promises them prosperity. These folks behave like lemmings and despite being told America is headed for disaster, they follow Obama over the cliff.
It seems incredible that unions continue strong support for political leadership that is going to bankrupt America. Not so incredible when you realize that power, money and greed overwhelm logical reasoning.
Our federal government is extremely obese and its ravenous appetite for expansion and power has it out of control. At the present time thousands of government employees are engaged in dreaming up new ways to suck money out of society in the form of taxes and fees that will appear innocuous to the taxpaying public. It has been learned that these new tax programs are under consideration and absolutely necessary for government to meet the challenge of ever increasing deficits: A Value Added Tax (VAT)which would be a tax added to all goods and services. Elimination of deduction for mortgage interest. Under the new healthcare legislation, employers will be required to report the amount they contribute yearly to employees healthcare and the employee will have to pay tax on that amount. This will also apply to retirees who receive some sort of medical insurance benefit in their retirement. Increasing taxes on investment incomes, including 401k's and, IRA's to become taxed. A National Sales Tax, added tax to tobacco and alcoholic beverages. These, and many more areas are under consideration and rest assured that government and their supporters in the major media will make any and all new taxes appear needed to continue all the 'wonderful' things government is doing for the good of America.
Are you going to be a socialist lemming, or will you join me in fighting for smaller government, less taxes and more individual freedom?
