Anarchy in the UK

Hmmm, such nice young ladies.

Apparently what started out as a protest about a police shooting is now about an anarchy, that they can do what they want. But really this is all about stealing and vandalism.

You know what I’ve heard this before.



Of course this rioting is destroying local businesses and these teenagers and twentysomethings have just put more people on the government dole. Not to mention the people who are now homeless because of the fires. Now the government will have to support more people.

Nice going morons. That’s right you’re not anarchist or protesters you’re morons or thieves.

But then this is what happens when the people become to dependent on the government to take care of them.

The problem with socialism it depends on taxing the workers so the worker can have benefits. So if enough people don't work and not pay into the system the system will fail. So then if there are jobs and young people of that country choose not to work for what ever reason then the government will bring in foreign workers to work so that they can pay into the system to support the non-working with healthcare and financial aid which use to be mostly the retired, elderly, disabled, sick, homeless, unemployed but now having the foreign workers paying the taxes and if young people do not enter the work force to pay their fair share you have more people needing the system that can’t get enough worker tax money due to disproportionate amount of workers to non-workers and the government still paying for benefits it can’t afford. And just taxing the rich in socialism will not sustain any country for very long, unless it’ s very small population and of that you have a large population of wealthy and limit immigration into the country.

Socialism today is the people pay taxes to the government for benefits and services. If people don’t pay or pay enough then the government can’t provide.

You Can Pay More Tax If You Want

I always love when a wealthy celebrities and liberals says taxes should be raised on the wealthy.

Let’s take Matt Damon. Apparently he doesn’t feel that he pays enough tax. Click and see the full video interview and the article of “Matt Damon on debt limit: ‘I’m so disgusted,’ ‘it’s criminal’ the wealthy are not paying higher taxes”
by Nicholas Ballasy July 30 (NicholasBallasy.com)

Then there is Author Stephen King, apparently he also doesn’t feel he pays enough in taxes. See the article and video of “Stephen King Eloquently Rips Into the Tea Party, Taxes, Reagan” 3/10/11 from nymag.com

First, I want to say I enjoy Matt Damon’s movie and Stephen King stories and I believe they are both very talented individuals and deserve every dime they make.

Now that being said, I wonder if they know that they can always pay more Federal or State taxes. There is no law saying you can’t pay more tax if you want.

This is how it works. You do your taxes and if you don’t think you are paying enough tax then you simply write out a bigger check. Now if the IRS sends it back saying you over paid then you send it back and say keep it. But most wealthy celebrities have accountants and the accountant’s job is to save the client money in the form of paying fewer taxes by using deduction, tax credits, write offs and finding loopholes. Now all the wealthy celebrity has to do is tell their accountant that they want to pay more tax and just tell them not to take any deduction, tax credits, write offs and loopholes. Of course the accountant might think your crazy but as long as you have enough money to pay them they should do it.

So it’s pretty simple, but the question is will wealthy liberals who think the rich should pay more taxes take the lead and voluntarily pay more taxes? Or do they feel it’s the government’s job to force them? Why should you feel that if you want to pay more tax that the government should come take it, why not just give it if you feel you owe more?

Here are other ways to give the Federal government more money.

1. How the Obamas (and the Guilty Left) Can Pay More Taxes

2. Gifts to the United States

Even if you live in a State that has no income tax you can give the State money or if State tax is based on property tax you can cut a bigger check.

Maybe if all the wealthy Liberals in this country voluntarily pay more taxes maybe then the “evil” rich will feel that they should too. But don’t be a hypocrite and only be willing to be paying more tax when it’s a Democrat in the Whitehouse but not if it’s a Republican.

So to all you wealthy Liberals and Celebrities liberals, even though I believe in your right to freedom of speech but there is an old saying; “You can talk the talk but can you walk the walk.” Or maybe this one is more appropriate; “Either put up or shut up.”

What the Hell!

Remember a week ago everyone was in a panic that if we did get the debt ceiling increased passed we were going to be downgraded? So after days of name calling along and negotiations and at the eleventh hour our government pass a bipartisan bill that would save us from debt ceiling apocalypse.

Well, what happen? The S&P downgraded us from AAA to AA rating because of our spending and we did cut enough spending in the bill. Our geniuses were able to offer up 2 trillion cut but apparently unaware S&P wanted 4 trillion cut. Oops!

This administration just doesn’t understand. I know President Obama wants European style of socialism but I guess President Obama also wanted European style debt rating as well.

Nice job guys. You know we wouldn’t want a balance budget or anything.

Let this poor simple guy give you in Washington a few suggestions.

1. Balance the budget.

2. Cut spending. Congress and the President could start with taking a 25% cut in pay. Then stop the earmarks, pet project funding and keep cutting everything even office supplies and make Social Security, Medicare and military the last to be looked at for cuts.

3. Flat income tax.

4. A .5% to 1% national sales tax. So we can get taxes from underground economies legal or illegal.

5. Lower the corporate tax to compete with other countries but make it flat tax with no loopholes or extensions.

6. Loosen up on regulation and paperwork that stifle the creation of small business.

7. Get away from banks and get them wanting to loan again.

8. Stop bailing out failed States. They need to learn to budget themselves.

9. Stop funding research studies such as Chinese hookers drinking, penises, pig farts and so on. Look if they can’t get private funding then nobody cares.

10. Maybe get rid of Fanny Mae & Freddy Mac.

I’m sure I could go on and I'm not saying these are good ideas but at least they're something.

Stop the politics and the parties ideologies and begin to represent the country.

Common Sense Anyone? Anyone?

Well you have to read this yourself.

11-year-old saves baby bird’s life, gets fined $535

This is one of those stories that make you wonder what ever happen to common sense. Look I have nothing but respect for law enforcement including U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service they all have an incredibly tough job. But some times the law agencies gets little over zealous and seem to lose their common sense when dealing with people.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service claims it to be a clerical error and that the agent and State Trooper “had gone to inquire about the health of the woodpecker. At that point, they determined that no further action was necessary.” See I don’t think the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would have sent a State Trooper with the agent if it was a simple inquiry. State Troopers are usually sent along as back up if they are serving citations or warrants because of the chance of possible violence. So to me it’s obvious the were told to serve a citation. Now I don’t know who wrote up the citation whether it was the agent they ran into or when they called in to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to report the incident and the release. Why the agent didn’t take the citation the her superiors and explained?

But what is really sad is how events like this could affect and young girl and her trust in the system.

This also reminds me of other incidents as such the story of a 10-year old girl brought her lunch to school and a small kitchen knife to cut it.
Or the story of the 12-year old Girl Arrested for Doodling.

Each of these incidents were over reactions and a lack of common sense but what affects could these have on these children when it comes to trusting authority, law enforcement and the system of justice we like to believe in?

Incidents like these only end up embarrassing law enforcement agencies, an embarrassments that could have been avoided with a little common sense.

Really Mr. President?

July 08, 2011 Remarks by the President on the Monthly Jobs Report

President Obama said,

“I believe that we can make things better. How we respond is up to us. There are a few things that we can and should do, right now, to redouble our efforts on behalf of the American people."

“Let me give you some examples. Right now, there are over a million construction workers out of work after the housing boom went bust, just as a lot of America needs rebuilding. We connect the two by investing in rebuilding our roads and our bridges and our railways and our infrastructure. And we could put back to work right now some of those construction workers that lost their jobs when the housing market went bust.”

Really Mr. President?

The President apparently thinks all construction is the same and all construction workers are the same. Well that’s not true, the men and women in the housing construction not the same as those in commercial construction or infrastructure construction. So how would a guy who installs floor or bath tile be needed on a road, bridge or railway? If you’re going to tile a bridge, well that’s going to be one expensive bridge. Maybe on road jobs we can have carpet installers put down carpets on the roads? Wouldn’t that be special?

Maybe if I put it in a way the President might understand. Take lawyers, you have Criminal Trial Lawyers, Divorce Lawyers, Contract Lawyers, Environmental Lawyers, Corporate Lawyers, Constitutions Lawyers, Bankruptcy Lawyers, and so on. If you are being tried for murder would you want a Criminal Trail Lawyer such as a Criminal Defense Attorney or a Contract Lawyer whose job is to write or read contracts and only court experience is in cases regarding a contract dispute?

So Mr. President we construction workers are not all the same. I'm a little supprised that the President Obama of all people would stereotype.

Update July

Sorry for neglecting my blog but a lot been going on. First still I’m very busy trying to find work for the construction company I work for and in this economy it’s still very difficult. Second my stepson who has CF and was very close to dying received a double-lung transplant a month ago. Good news he is doing well and getting better every day but there is a lot to do to help is recovery and there can always be a complication. So I hope things will calm down a bit and I’ll get back to commenting on current events.

With all going on I just haven’t been wanting or having time blog. I keep hoping that will change. So many time something happen in the news or I think of something to blog about but I’ve been to tired too.

It’s a Great Day For America!

That’s right Osama bin Laden is dead!

Not much more I can say.

Enjoy it while it last because the war of terror is not over and there will still be threats and attacks as long as terror cells existed. We will need to go after bin Laden’s #2, #3 & #4 particularly al-Zawahri who is bin Laden’s #2 and most likely his successor and who actually I see as bin Laden’s behind the scenes man and is a very dangerous man in is own right and perhaps more than bin Laden.

But hey at least we got him so it’s a great day!
