Fear of Big Government Has Increased Since Obama Took Office

Chuck Donovan needs your help against Johnny "Big Government" Isakson
2010-10-08 02:39:00 10/7/2010 Vote for Chuck DONOVAN on November 2nd Hello everyone, Many of you already know the news that I am running for U.S. Senate here in Georgia. This will be one of my last opportunities to get the word out to everyone I know personally and to have you forward it to everybody you know. Our fellow citizens are desperately searching for better representation. We see that the main parties have no intention of limiting government, exercising fiscal discipline, or following the Constitution. Voters are looking for new candidates who will put principles before party and politics. I am that candidate. In this election season the professional politicians are out in the full force again making the same empty promises. Voters need to be reminded it will not be different this time unless we vote differently. There is a good chance my race will go to a runoff. That means voters have the opportunity to vote their cons...

Sci Fi Giant Ray Bradbury Slams Obama's Era of Big Government
2010-08-17 20:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston The L.A. Times has a heartwarming story of literary giant Ray Bradbury who at 90 is not afraid to tell everyone exactly what he thinks. A gathering of admirers got an earful of Bradburyisms on the verge of his Aug 22 90th birthday celebration in Los Angeles. Bradbury railed against the "too many machines" that we surround ourselves with, lamented that we hadn't colonized the moon by now, and said that the U.S. is in need of a revolution because "there is too much government today." You have to hand it to this wizened sage. He hit the nail on the head with every statement. Bradbury is so right to point out that we are losing...

Sowing More Big Government with the Farm Bill, by US Rep. Ron Paul
2008-06-02 07:00:00 Recently Congress sent the latest Farm Bill to the president. The bill features brand new federal programs, expansion of existing subsidies, more food stamps and more foreign food aid. This bill hits the taxpayer hard, while at the same time ensuring food prices will remain elevated. The president vetoed the bill, citing concerns over its costs and subsidies for the wealthy in a time of high food prices and record farm income. Nevertheless, this over-reaching, government-expanding Farm Bill will soon be law. The truth is most farmers simply want honest pay for honest work. However, if the government is providing competing farms with advantages, and one wants to remain a farmer, one must seek a proportional advantage from government. It is a difficult position for the farmer. Some are better at qualifying for taxpayers? largesse than others as evidenced by the fact that more than 60% of the subsidies go to just 10% of recipients, edging out the small family farm. This entir...
Big Government Responsible for Housing Bubble, by US Rep. Ron Paul
2008-05-11 07:00:00 The House passed two bills attempting to rehabilitate the housing and mortgage market this week. There doesn't seem to be any shortage of criticism and blame for the bad decisions, and rightly so. Lenders and banks do share much of the blame for the overheated market. Lending standards were relaxed, or even abandoned altogether, creating an exaggerated pool of homebuyers that led to ballooning home prices that many, especially real estate investors, expected to continue forever. Now that the bubble has burst, the losses are staggering. read more
Big Government Responsible for High Gas Prices, by US Rep. Ron Paul
2008-05-04 07:00:00 In the past few months, American workers, consumers, and businesses have experienced a sudden and dramatic rise in gasoline prices. In some parts of the country, gasoline costs as much as $4 per gallon. Some politicians claim that the way to reduce gas prices is by expanding the government?s power to regulate prices and control the supply of gasoline. For example, the House of Representatives has even passed legislation subjecting gas stations owners to criminal penalties if they charge more than a federal bureaucrat deems appropriate. Proponents of these measures must have forgotten the 1970s, when government controls on the oil industry resulted in gas lines and shortages. It was only after President Reagan lifted federal price controls that the gas lines disappeared. read more

But it's worse than that:what really gets me is the deliberate extravagance committed by the people at the top of the government machine.

Non-Governmental Organizations: A Trip into the Mind of a Liberal
2007-10-23 22:49:00 Bill Clinton just wrote in his new book, ?Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World,? about the benefits of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). NGOs work to benefit specific economic, social, and cultural causes. Instead of pooling tax dollars into one central location, and squandering the money, non-governmental organizations are smaller in size and have private citizens managing the money.Bill Clinton realized after his Presidency that these programs actually work to help people better than governments. He realized that it is easier to track the contributions to its intended source. NGOs also lead to less corruption and less waste. Overall, they achieve better results than punishing the most successful people in our society with a higher tax burden.For those of you who have never heard of Non-Governmental Organizations before, the first thought going through your head right now is correct. NGOs are exactly what they sound like. They are Private Charities!There is nothing diff...

George Bush Finally Advocates Fiscal Responsibility by Threatening More Vet
2007-10-16 00:01:00 After the Republicans were voted out of office in 2006, George Bush has been able to do what many conservatives have asked him to do for years: Veto excessive spending. Not only did George Bush rightfully veto the SCHIP program, because of the devastating effect it would have on our future economy, but this week he threatened Congress with additional vetoes unless the Democrats cut their budget. Yes, $2.9 trillion is excessive.I am personally thrilled by this news. Finally, George Bush is acting like a Conservative, rather than a Compassionate Conservative (a.k.a. Huge Liberal). The question now is whether this is too little too late?Bush already was responsible for the Medicare Part D plan, which added another massive Government entitlement to our budget. So there is nothing Bush can do until the end of his term to make up for that mistake. However, this is a great start.The problem of fiscal irresponsibility all stems from Washington, D.C.

Bull-SCHIP!!!! Democrats Seek Forced Government Dependence With SCHIP Expa
2007-10-08 15:20:00 The President was right to veto the SCHIP expansion recently passed by congress. To put it simply, all the grandstanding from lying Democrats and quisling Republicans that Bush is somehow denying health care to children is absurd. The facts about SCHIP simply do not support this notion.Under SCHIP, taxpayers pay for the health coverage of children in families of four earning as much as $72,000 per year. Democrats in Congress seek to open the program to families of four earning $83,000 per year or more. The President has made it clear that he is open to expanding the program, but not to cover well-off families before States enroll 95 percent of those lower-income children first.The foundation of SCHIP is utterly implausible in the first place. It assumes the efficient transfer of funds from taxpayers to the needy as their tax dollars go from their pockets to Washington and then back to state governments and ultimately back to the people who "need it." Like its uglier older sister, Me...
Communication Matters: Why George Bush's Veto of the SCHIP Program Was Not
2007-10-06 00:32:00 I was proud that George Bush vetoed the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) this week. However, it certainly was not good enough because George Bush failed the most important part of his veto: Conveying to the American people why he did it. Now the American people think that he wants to kill our children.The most I heard Bush say was that he believes in free markets. That's great George!! I do too. But, for the economically challenged, they still hear that you are trying to kill their kids.Here is what I would say if I were George Bush in as few words as possible:The SCHIP plan classifies "Children" as anyone below the age of twenty-five. The SCHIP plan classifies poor people as those making less than $85,000 a year. It is funded by a cigarette tax. When the cigarette tax reduces the number of smokers, and the revenue generated decreases over time, expect for government to find other ways to pay for it: Increasing everyone's taxes.Then, in 30 years, expect t...
Bill Maher Admits that He Does Not Understand Economics: This Explains Ever
2007-09-29 20:44:00 In the most recent episode of Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO, Bill Maher said something amazing: He does not understand economics and never did. He never understood it in college, and did not do well in that class either. Ladies and gentlemen, this explains everything.I am now completely convinced that this Country is divided into two groups of people, those who understand economics, and those who do not. Those people who understand economics call themselves Conservatives/ Libertarians, and those who do not understand economics call themselves liberals/ socialists. It is really that simple.I used to think that liberals understood economics, but still imposed awful policies so long as those policies kept them in power. How else can anyone explain why liberals always want to tax ?the rich? in an effort to make the lives better for the poor? Why else would liberals advocate increases in regulations to help small businesses and labor? Why else would liberals and socialists bel...
As Democrats Push Socialized Medicine, WalMart Supplies $4 Prescription Dru
2007-09-27 18:19:00 This obsession with Big Government for the sake of Big Government has gone out of control. Even though liberals know that lowering taxes and limited government have numerous economic benefits, including increased government revenue, Democrats are still locked into the mindset that they need to raise taxes and increase the size of government. It just makes them feel better about themselves.Now, as the Democratic Presidential candidates hash out their destructive socialized medical plans, the private sector is providing prescription drugs for cheaper prices than a Big Mac at McDonalds. WalMart, in fact, has just announced that it will be expanding its $4 prescription generic drugs by 10%. Laughably, WalMart apologized for only being able to provided two prescription birth control drugs and one fertility drug for $9. Wow, they?re really breaking the America people?s banks with those prices. I?m sorry, if someone cannot afford a $9 pill once a month to prevent me from having to pa...

A 70-Year-Old Great-Grandmother was Arrested for Allegedly Not Watering Her
2007-09-19 20:23:00 Something is clearly in the water supply. Not only do liberals want to ban fast food, but now they are arresting 70-year-old great-grandmothers for having brown lawns. Yes, Betty Perry was cited by Officer James Flygare of the police's Neighborhood Preservation Unit for failing to water her lawn.?Perry refused to give her name to the officer and, when Flygare tried to stop her from going back inside her house, she reportedly tripped and injured her nose.? Are we living in the Soviet Union? What kind of nonsense is this? Why are tax dollars going toward a ?Neighborhood Preservation Unit?? Again, these bureaucratic nightmares are getting out of control.There was a really simple solution to this situation. If Betty Perry?s neighbors wanted her brown lawn green, they should have knocked on her door and offered to water her lawn for a small fee or for free. If she refused, that?s too bad; it is her property. If elitist liberals want to argue that it lowers the property value of...
Liberals Push to Ban Fast Food in South Las Angeles, California: Thank You
2007-09-19 04:14:00 We predicted this happening better than Nostradamus ever could. As we have said hundreds of times over the last few months, big government liberals would attempt to ban fast food. Well, it appears that will happen in California. While many of you ?healthy eaters? may feel indifferent about this decision, just wait when the government bans something you actually enjoy. Then it will be too late.?Amid worries of an obesity epidemic and its related illnesses, including high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease, Los Angeles officials, among others around the country, are proposing to limit new fast-food restaurants -- a tactic that could be called health zoning.? The government is the only thing being overfed in this case. There is no better evidence that the government is stealing your money than when its officials have time to zone for fatty foods to protect you from yourself.Just read this insane quote from a brilliant liberal communist:"The people don't want them, but wh... |
