So this afternoon I'm going to the tag office to renew my vehicle tags, and I have Rush on the radio. I must have been touched by God or something, because just as I turned it on he started with a long monologue on how everything we've had for the last 20 years has been fake.
Cars, houses, flatscreen TVs, unlimited medical care for the poor, Medicare, etc, you name it - all fake.
Oh sure, the car, the TV and the doctor are real - you can touch them. But we never paid for them. We borrowed more and more money.
In short, Rush woke up to the reality of this:
Yes, he put a nasty partisan spin on it but you have to give the devil his due - he finally awoke from his long slumber. For the last several years I've wanted to smash the radio whenever he has gone on his "Republicans good, Democrats bad" mantra when it comes to deficits, taxes and spending.
Well, not today. Oh sure, today he had to say "Obama has been worse", but that's to be expected.
But he acknowledged - for the first time I've heard on his broadcasts - that what we've been doing, and are still continuing to do, not only hasn't worked but can't.
The people are waking up. Oh, it's slow, but they're doing it. And the small number who are awake and really, really *****ed off are going to turn into a very large number of extremely *****ed-off Americans in short order.
With good cause.
We've been sold a bill of goods in America...

That's where UN Agenda 21 comes in.
They want to reduce the population of the earth to 150-million people so they can live in a pristine Walden paradise.
They're planning on being among the 150-million.
It's our job to see that it doesn't work out that way.
Isn't that fun? LOL
Marxist takeovers are bloody. Those left will be worker bees in government factories. GM comes to mind.............They have to eliminate the private sector. You hear them talking about government creating jobs. You know they don’t......unless they own everything.
The game must go on for all those in DC. We need to inundate Congress with Tea Party candidates.
Great chart but one problem. there was no surplus during the Clinton years. It is mathematically impossible to have a “surplus” when the National Debt increased every year of his administration, period.
I questioned that too but every graph shows that. I figured it meant that our debt wasn’t growing faster than the GDP.
Oh man, I don’t really know the answer to that. It was from a list of quotes from Atlas Shrugged.
OK,I think I know where to find it. It’s in Gault’s speech to the nation over the radio.
I am aware that there was no Clinton surplus. Clinton is not the subject at the moment. Obama and the Dems destroying the economy is.
>>If they get to where they are in complete charge of a society that has no industry and no economy and no ambition and no future ...except to maybe violently take it back, what have they gained?
Lower the standard of living for Americans and you can make them work for less. Through “affordability credits” and “welfare reforms”, they can adjust our way of life incrementally to maintain the perfect balance. Eventually, our labor is competitive with other 3rd world nations and our masters gain control of an educated and motivated work force in a continent-sized nation full of resources. With America under their heel, they can dictate terms to the rest of the world. The US becomes a world power again, but without all that pesky individualism and freedom.
I think you condensed it fairly well. I still don't see the point in all the destruction when they are already in power. Where I live people re really hurting and things are falling apart in ways we would never have imagined three years ago.
