Why we are becoming economic slaves......

Sunday, October 12, 2008

IMHAOWO, I believe our out of control government continues to create and now, vastly expand their economic slavery on all of us.

Why do I believe this?

Here is why.

Many years ago, the government decided to "take care of those in the lower economic band".

The government made a deal with them. The deal was simple; the government would provide, would meet, at little to no cost to those who accepted the terms, the basic needs to survive; (low income housing), food (WIC, food stamps), health insurance, and the most basic of education.

There was a couple of clauses to the contract;

You could not break out of this economic band. you could only make X dollars, not X+1, just X. If you decided you wanted to be successful, you lost all of X and were on your own, alone, and now away from the protective blanket of government. You would also be labeled a "sell out"

If the terms were accepted the receivers of this package would be "labeled", but would be taken care of for life by the government and never worry, your benefits, now called entitlements would continue to be provided for by those ho were paying taxes, as you did not make enough to pay taxes, you were exempt from paying.

There was another clause;

You had to live where it was easiest for the government to build all the housing, great big housing project would be built. You had to live with others who accepted the governments deal. But the benefit was you all could vote for people who would expand the government provided programs to you.

Yes you might have some more labeling, but the people you elected would cry aloud to everyone, "foul, not fair, these people need more help"........and you would receive it through more government programs.

But again remember........you could not leave the governments protection, in order to keep receiving all the benefits you would be getting, you could not be successful, you had to stay in the same areas, with the same schools, doing the same things, stay with others who accepted the terms of the contract.

Remember, you will be labeled, but not to worry........as more people accepted the contract, more voters could vote for more representatives and these people you elected would again cry aloud, even louder, to everyone, "foul, not fair, these people need more help, they need so much more than they have been given"........and you would receive even more government programs. Not paid by you, but paid by those not like you, paid by those who were paying the taxes that funded all the programs you received.

This system of economic slavery has worked so well. The economic slaves were content and happy, they were receiving so much and not having to pay..........so others paid, and paid, and paid....till a funny thing began to happen.....those who were paying............could now not afford to pay for everything......they began to slip up here and there, they began to fall behind, missing their payments.......

But that did not stop the government, they continued to provide more and more to more and more of the economic slaves.......

And now the system is failing............

So what should we do?

Look to the government that created the mess and now ask them to fix it by having the government now buy our homes, buy into the local banks, gain controlling shares in corporations, keeping their fingers in the cookie jar.

These bail outs will cost us more than is possible to pay. There can only be so much of a limit we can be pushed to before it all collapses.

Where will the over $1,000,000,000,000.00 just for the bail out come from?

What about the $200,000,000,000.00(est.) for Freddie Mack/Fannie Mae come from?

$100,000,000,000.00 for the party boys at AIG?

$3,000,000,000,000.00 federal budget?

$50,000,000,000.00 for the Automakers?

I cannot even figure Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, and the Prescription Drug Plan.......

So I guess at some point the economic slavery net will catch us all.......because the only way we will be able to eat, sleep in a structure, and have health care will be through the economic slave contract......

As always, subject to your review and comments,
