HOW TO START EACH DAY WITH A POSITIVE OUTLOOK

1. Open a new file in your computer.

2. Name it ‘ Barack Obama ‘.

3. Send it to the Recycle Bin .

4. Empty the Recycle Bin.

5. Your PC will ask you: ‘Do you really want to get rid of ‘Barack Obama?’

6. Firmly Click ‘Yes.’

7. Feel better?

GOOD! - Tomorrow we’ll do Nancy Pelosi .

The signs are there. The MOST dangerous person in the world is he who is SLOW to anger. I sense the American people are beginning to stir..heaven help those in the way.
There are those who will understand my next sentence..
YOU HAVE GOTTEN JOHN GALT’S ATTENTION. HE IS UPSET.
The rest of you....forget it.

Odd. Comrade 0bama campaigned on a platform promising a "redistribution of wealth". Not only did those expecting to receive this money supported zer0, but a LOT of those who will be supplying the cash were ardent supporters.

Maybe those who have to supply the cash are now finding out what a "redistribution of wealth" really means: it is a remake of Hildbeast's plan to "take things away for the common good".

>>>We are John Galt.<<<

Damn right. Here’s the strategy: Stop being productive. Stop investing. If you run a business, don’t expand. If you have a job, don’t excel. If you need to get training, don’t do it. Downsize as much as you can. Work enough for the family and yourself. Don’t buy a house or a car or a new television.

When the looters - to use Ayn Rand’s phrase - come for me, they won’t find anything to take. I can’t hide in a canyon in Colorado, but I can hide in plain sight and refuse to produce anything which will be taken from me. The looters might gain enough power to confiscate my property, but they’re going to be hard pressed to force me to work harder. Maybe I can lower my income to the point where I no longer pay taxes. What if everyone decided to do that?

Starve the state.

If the government wants to treat us as slaves, we need to respond in the best slave tradition - sullen obedience, half-assed effort, doing the minimum needed to avoid punishment, moving slowly from task to task without enthusiasm. There might be some slave revolts, too, but I expect those to be surpressed. They can’t force me to be productive, though.

I didn't think the revolution would be starting until later this year. This is terrific! Organize and attack the enemy before his position is fortified.

The Rick Santelli clip is great. It could be the 2009 version of "I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!"

I'm waiting for the Hollywood and "artistic" types to find out that Obama wants to take their money. When these dopes -- the Streisands, Spielbergs, Springsteens, etc. -- start getting their money confiscated, will they cheer "Yay! I'm part of Obama's solution!" or will they have a scowling face, saying "Hey Obama! I didn't think you were referring to ME!!"

Crushing force would require that our military defend against their own people.

Do you really think this will happen?
And with what result?

That is why we have the second amendment to the constitution and gun sales are through the roof since it looked like the big O was going to win.

They just don’t get it. You don’t raise taxes on folks and then expect them to work twice as hard to make the same amount they did before. It just doesn’t work. When the shelves are empty will they then realize this idiocy?

I guess we could all just sit around and wait for future generations to ask why we did nothing or were afraid to act when we had a chance.

Unfortunately, that is not likely to be the case. When you get into the really high dollar income level, you have a lot of other opportunities available to you. Those multi-million dollar payouts for a movie, for example, aren't paid as income. They might be paid into the star's production company, or possibly into his foundation. He has access to foundation money, but it really isn't "his". Im not an expert in tax law, but i know these types of vehicles exist.
