Letter to the Editor

Blame Replicats

Wednesday, October 22, 2008

Dear Editor,

Inflation is a tax on savings. In 1933, FDR's New Deal (Change) to fix the Depression illegalized owning gold! Not tied to value, lo ... the green backs float! When wages were $1 an hour, bread was 10 cents a loaf. Had you banked it for interest, what can it buy now?

Government is to set standards, not redistribute wealth. (Where doth the Constitution permit taxing everybody to benefit anyone?

Name anyone overlooked by church charity, the compassion of God, unworthy of thy personal help, entitled to tax dollars? Nary anyone's Social Security tax was ever saved and returned to them plus interest?

If anyone else foisted this pyramid, ponzi, chain letter scheme, they would be incarcerated! If family and the church cannot take care for their own, how can they support everybody else's kin?

Would even Karl Marx cringe at this utopian nightmare of welfare gifts, subsidies exceeding the legal exemption for a taxpayer?

In 1957, a German, farming with a cow and a horse, told me America made a big mistake helping Russia! Had the U.S.A. stayed out, Germany would have conquered the U.S.S.R. and collapsed trying to police that huge mass of land.

Sending troops out to save the world while illegals are flooding the U.S.A. is national suicide!

The Replicrats (A Replicat is a Democrat faking Republican, or a Republican faking Democrat) only twice balanced the budget since F.D.R. Their wars for false prosperity cost all the dead corpses.

Irresponsible bailouts -- who is next? Who will bail out the U.S.A.? Trillions of debt burdening generations to come is taxation without representation and morally wrong! If $700 billion is about $2,300 per member of every family, what is the total debt prorated to every citizen?

Abolish retirement dollars for every elected official! Dock their pay by the same percent as the deficit!

"But if any provide not for his own family, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith and is worse than an infidel."

I Timothy 5:8.

Frank Sowers,

Have no fear, Frank. The United States cannot declare Bankruptcy, because the Bankruptcy Judge would know that if the bankruptcy was allowed, the Judge would probably not be paid. (Bad joke)

I read an article a while back that said, to the effect: Democracy is self-destructive. As soon as the citizenry finds out that they can 'vote' themselves 'big-money' items, and have the rest of the country pay the bill, the Democracy is then irretrievably headed into extinction (or something like that). We have done that. Just look at the 'Pork,' (oops, I guess they call it 'ear-marking' now-a-days. Interesting however, pork used to be identified by notching the ear.

Miracles have happened, but this time ?????

Keep praying.
