"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton

 

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan

 

"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792

 

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams

 

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

I think the plan is to basically get small concessions now and then DO THE WHOLE THING OVER AGAIN IN 2014 when people actually see it in their checks and it’s an election year.

Why do we care about the credit rating of theses united States?

Why should we want it to be “cheap” for the present generation of politicians to spend the money of future generations instead of relying upon present voters for the revenue they require?

Credit might be a great idea when it comes to an individual who has but one life to live and doesn’t pass on his or her debt’s to his or her children, but its a terribly unfair & unjust idea for a country!

SO why is it that we should desire to preserve this credit rating?

Indeed the reason we have such large amounts of debt today is in no small a measure a direct result to the ease by which past generations of voters were able to enact burdens upon future generations of voters rather than their own, while wreaping the benefit of their spending now.

If you care for democracy, and justice for the future I urge you to destroy the credit rating of theses united States.

There can be no more justice than there is fiscal accountability so long as such easy borrowing exist.
