Topic: Economy, what's left of
The news right now is "US Govt credit downgrade unless USG GOES FURTHER IN DEBT"
Makes absolutely no sense, eh? Ive been wrestling with this one for weeks now, and the light comes on.
Most of my posts here have at least 2 weeks to 2 months of pondering behind them, they are usually not written on the moment.
Its different here in the US than in Communist and Socialist Nations like Greece where the debt plug was pulled, or is being pulled, as in Gree and Spain (PIIGS)
The difference in the USA is that the GOVERNMENT IS NOT THE ECONOMY.
The Government in Commie and Obama-ist Nations IS THE ECONOMY and when the Govt economy collapses, so does the private sector.
The two are separate here, or should be. Actually, Constitutionally, there is no authorization for the Government to be playing Business and Economics, its a giant leech of Taxes on the people.
Its now proven that:
Government spending does not boost the private sector economy
Obama is a COMMUNIST because he believes in and is advocating debt, as if the Government runs all business.
I get this sneaking feeling that if the USG does go flat, the private sector will FLOURISH.
What got me on this Rant was a response to a You tube video about a Patriotic Flash Mob that went into a grocery and started playing "Stars and Stripes Forever"
A commenter marvelled that You Tube deleted posts that contained "offensive material" and that in his foriegn view, that wasnt consistent with American values of Freedom.
My responses are and I didnt post them, except here:
1.) Its irrelavent what he thinks about US from over there in his Communist or Obamalist NAtion
2.) In America, the Government doesnt *yet* own every company. You Tube is free to delete any post, any video, their entire website if they please.
Maybe in HIS communist or Obamalist hell hole, the Government can enforce such things onto private Citizens and corporations (notice I didnt include corporations in the class of Citizen because they arent) but not here.
yet...
