just what are "US principles"?????

as it seems to me, its kill off the American middle/working class in favor of all power and money in the hands of the elitist.....

anybody else worried that our hard earned 401ks and our Iras/roths are going to be taxed so heavily or indexed so heavily that the money will mean nothing at all in coming years..

that way, your 40 yrs of tax paying citizenship will mean about as much as an illegal alien crossing over and claiming rights....

I fear for this nation....

“just what are “US principles”?????”

My principles are: Sauve qui peut!

I tried to be a loyal citizen, but no longer at the expense of my family’s future.

Taxed? I fear they will be seized for "the good of all".

In order for the Government to meet its current obligations, I can only forsee a heavy inflation cycle or two to devalue the money so the numbers are meaningless.

A few decades ago, $30,000 automobiles and $350,000 houses would have been pretty heady stuff.

(A new Lincoln was 5 grand). Now, the equivalent car is 10+ times that, and today's $350,000 house would have sold then for $20-25,000.

It is happening as I type, the money is worth less in terms of buying necessities. You can buy things cheap now which have no equivalents then, but when you get right down to it, they are consumer goods with a limited (3-5 year) lifespan.

No offense, but with all of your concerns about the Proletarians, shouldn't you be at DemocratsUnderground?

It certainly isn’t the America we all grew up in.There are illegal immigrants near us in Syracuse and probably working on the farms here. Some have committed crimes. Will they be tossed out, NO, probably not.

I believe the New World Order is planted firmly in our nation. George Sr. certainly was a proponent of it. Wonder if George Jr. follows that vein as well. I sincerely hope not but...

Silly. They know not to kill the Golden Goose. Give them some credit for brains. Whoever they are.

The only solution for any of us . . . and a blessed solution it is, . . .

is to walk ever closer to God; seek Him and His ways for us day by day.

They are already taking your money via inflation. The expansion of the money supply is going up at a rate of 12% a year via excess credit.
