I see changes on the horizon!

Well hello all! I have been putting tons of thought lately into this blog and what it is, what it was, and what i have in my mind for it to be. So i thought, what the hell, i'll launch my ideas out and see what people think and if people would be interested in helping.

First off, my idea for the future of the blog is one that will remain on the task of retaining, recouping or rebuilding our rights and liberties in this country, if not the world. I want this medium to be used as a way to expose the vast corruption and evil shown and performed throughout every corner of our government. I also want this to be used as a way to wake up people to the facts, not the "facts" that our government and main stream want us to believe, but the true cold hard facts. A sort of antibiotic against the sheeple virus infecting more and more people in the once great nation.

Secondly i want to see this move from being the work of one miniscule man to a vast group of like-minded people telling the truth from their mouths, in their perspective. I want to have a vast network setup to where when you come here you can look at an overview of national type issues as well as look at issues from each of the states (even nations if there is a need). A setup where we have a couple of people from each of the states to make people aware of what is happening there. Sometimes we can get wrapped up with what is happening either just at the local picture or just at the national level that we fail to see the whole picture of corruption and how wide spread it is.

Thirdly, I was to see a revamp of the blog. One that isn't just this blah backdrop. I want to see this morph into a fully functional website that supports and feeds literally tons of traffic. A website with a better name, better graphics, and not to mention one that we have control over the content, not one that we have to meet the standards of speech and ideas set forth from a gargantuan bohemeth that tries to control our right to free speech.

Lastly, i want this to become a thorn in the side of every politician and anyone else who has even inkling of wanting to detroy our rights and take away our freedom. I want to hold their feet to fire on each and every issue that contridicts what the Constitution says and means.

So thats my thoughts. Now comes the process oftaking this plan from the thought process to the process of making it a reality. So if there are people out there willing to help out with this project let me know and lets get this thing off of the launch pad. I need all the help i can get.

.........Is this thing on?

Well, welcome back. Or should i say that to myself. As you can tell it has been a long time since this blog has been active. And there has been a few reasons as to why.

Beginning in September of 2009 I became the Chairman of the Spartanburg County Libertarian Party. With that post i felt that I needed to focus my time and effort on the party. During that time we went through county organization, the election of 2010, fielded a candidate for US House of Representatives District 4 (a great man named Rick Mahler), and then continued on. However with my job taking more and more of my time and effort i felt it was time to step down from that role. So earlier this year i resigned the post of Chairman of the county party and took a break from just about everything. The main reason for taking the break was due to being burnt out. Burnt out on politics, burnt out on the party, burnt out due to the election results. Just burnt out. There were some others reasons as well. But now is not the time and here is not the place to discuss this.

So here we are, almost two years since my last post and ta-da, I'm Back. Now with being back i plan to hit the ground running and make this blog live up to the dreams and aspirations i have had since the beginning. Something you would enjoy, something I would enjoy, a sounding board for me to be heard from (my own soap box of sorts). And while my views are still the same as before, my viewpoint has changed. While i still believe our government is at fault for the state of our country, there is also some sinister forces outside this government fiddling around with the working of this government essentially making it a government beyond our control. But i will get into that more as we go along.

So while the name is still (for now) Spartanburg Libertarian, this blog is not going to stick to Libertarian Issues, topics, or party related items. It will be a entire smorgasborg of topics, ideas, and viewpoints (mainly, but not strictly, Libertarian).

I am trying to reach out to a few select people to potentially have some guest writers and bloggers to post here on topics that they want to blog on. If you are one, or possibly know some. Feel free to let me know and we will go from there.

So i'm glad to be back and its time to start the engines and get this moving.

My Letter to a Principal

This is a letter just written to the principal of the school that two of my children go to addressing what i read today about Obama wanting to address the school kids on September 8th.




Hey Mr Henson,
Thank you for your quick response.

I am glad to hear that you would like to hear the perspectives of the parents on matters. This is a key of how our democracy works, which i fear more people are getting complacent and not exerting that right. As a leader in a political party i have to look indepth into subjects that deal with our government and its entities, and there are times where something looks fine from the outside, but once you dig deeper you find some startling things. I feel this is one of those instances.

I have read over the Letter from the Secretary of the Department of Education (Arne Duncan), as well the PreK-6 Menu of Classroom Activities. And i must be honest, i feel something is awry with this. I wonder what the true purpose of the President having this address. If he wanted to have an address, he would have one over the main airwaves to the attention of the children and the parents. Having this piped into schools i feel is a way for him to be able to influence children without the input of the parents.

I really got concerned when i got to the question part of the PreK-6 document. Questions such as: What is the President telling me? What is the President asking me to do? What do you think the President wants us to do? Why is it important to listen to the President?
These questions seem like a tool of persuasion aimed at impressionable children in order to further a cause that these children are not yet old enough to understand or make adaquete judgement calls on themselves. It looks as if with the documents i have read, that the children are going to be used as some sort of pawn in a political game being played out in Washington.

As i have said, i feel that this is being pushed without Parental input or Knowledge from the highest levels of our government.

As the Chairman of the Spartanburg County Libertarian Party, I would like to ask Lyman Elementary as well as Spartanburg County School District 5 not take part of this event. And instead focus on the important thing at hand, the educating of our children.

Thank you for your time. And i look forward to hearing back on the response from Dr. Turner.

Thanks,
Jamie A Steele
County Chairman
Spartanburg County Libertarian Party


I would urge everyone their schools and school districts and get their thoughts out on the subject.

The Birth Certificate

Well i just recieved an email just a little bit ago. It is from a very trusted source.

As most people know, there has been a big thing going on about Obama's birth certificate. This is an issue that has been brewing since early on in the last presidential campaign. Many have spent a huge amount of money trying to investigate this issue. Because as most people know, if our current president does not have a valid birth certificate proving that he was born a United States Citizen.

But i am not for sure why all of this money has been spent on this issue, when my trusted source only spent a matter of mere days, and spent no money to be able to find this document, thanks to a Pro Bono Legal Services Company ran by some very high profile people (People you will know)

But finally it has been proven that Obama is truly a United States Citizen from birth. I know some will want to question the doctors who are named on the document. My source has not tried to find these doctors. But looking at the document, it looks like it is all legit and needs no questioning.

So below are copies of the Official Birth Certificate and the Law Firm that has found the document.

Now i guess we will have to find another topic of interest to pursue.

An Interesting Thing to Find

I was down at the Spartanburg County Courthouse on Friday. I know for most people, when you mention this fact you can get some pretty interesting reactions. But then when you tell them it was for Political Purposes, you can get some funny looks.
Most don't have any clue why anyone would want to fight in the realm of politics in this country. But what they don't realize is this, If it weren't for people willing to fight in the realm of Politics, this country would never exist. It is all fine and great to vote in this country. But when all that your activism consists of is voting, not much really changes in this country. If it does change, its generally for the worse. Which is part of the reason why this country is in the mess its in now. Most people are fearful to get out of the comfort of their homes to get in the trenches to fight for what they feel is right. To me there is nothing that feels better or fulfilling then to fight for something much bigger than myself. And every ones rights and freedoms are definitely worth fighting for. I would rather find myself as a casualty of war in the political war on rights and freedoms, then to sit in comfort complaining at how screwed up this country is. If you are complaining about it, THEN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Either getup and fight to change it, or shut the hell up.
Sorry, I have digressed a bit.
But like i said, i went to the courthouse to the Clerk of Courts, to get some paperwork stamped and placed into public record. You really get raised eyes when you mention to people that you went to the Clerk of Court's office and it was not to pay child support.
But while i was in there i noticed a framed picture on the wall. It was titled "Famous Flags from History". It was a pretty interesting picture. It had the Stars and Stripes, the Confederate flag, then allot of other flags. But one i found interestingly missing was the Gadsden Flag. Now most do not recall this flag, but it is one of the greatest to me and my fellow Libertarian Patriots.
I found this interesting.

Why would the government find it necessary to try to hide this famous flag? It might be because the meaning of this flag represented the fight against an empirical government. One that we fought against in the Revolutionary War, only to see the same thing 200 years later. So the government thinks that if squashes this emblem, that we won't have a symbol to fight under against them. Boy are they ever wrong.

Keep up the fight, and fly the Gadsden Flag at all times.

A Big Thank You!

A little bit ago i was going through the Tracking for this blog, and i was pleasantly surprised. I want to first thank everyone that come to my little dusty ill lit corner of the web. I know there is so much on the web that each of you could be doing, but you visiting here to see what i have to say, it stuns me.

So i wanted to take the time to give my thanks to each of you. And i must say i was taken aback from where some of the traffic came from, like Germany (Danke vielmals!), and Belguim, not to mention hits from 19 states in this country. But the craziest one for me was Hollis, NY. It was crazy because the old Run DMC song Christmas In Hollis started playing in my head (a song i haven't heard in over 20 years).

But once again i just want say a big Thank You to each and every one of you. Keep reading.

An Official Message!

Yesterday i recieved this email from a member of the National Libertarian Party about HR 3200 (aka The Obama Deathcare System). It starts off talking about the Public Outcry over this Bill and how the Politicians are reacting to it. There is also a link in it that the Libertarian Party would love for you to print off and try to get your Congressional Representatives to sign.

I say lets all try to get them sign and see how much luck we have with it. Better yet, film the process of you trying to get them to sign and put it up on youtube. Lets get the word out about how these elected officials are truly not working for our best interest and frankly could care less about our interests.

Well here is the email.

Aug. 10, 2009
Your Monday Message from the Libertarian Party:
Dear friend,
Rep. Kathy Castor and Sen. Russ Carnahan called out union thugs to rough up citizens who showed up to speak out against government-run medicine.

Rep. David Scott began screaming at a doctor who disagreed with him.

Rep. John Dingell got into an argument with an elderly man who brought his special needs son.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi claimed people who are revealing the details of HR 3200 are “carrying swastikas.”

Rep. Brian Baird refuses to even meet with his constituents to discuss the bill. He publicly referred to the senior citizens and families he’s supposed to represent as “Brown Shirts,” the infamous Nazi war criminals.

As the details of HR 3200 trickle out and public support for government-run medicine collapses, Democrats are doing everything they can to instigate chaos and bully the millions of Americans who don’t want government-run medicine.

Gee, you’d think there’s stuff in the Obama health care takeover Democrats don’t want people to hear about. Probably page 16 outlawing private health care, page 167 and others calling for new national taxes on people with “unacceptable” health care plans, or the sections calling for “end of life planning” for the elderly and sick. No wonder Democrats seem to be trying to turn town halls away from serious discussions of their bill and into WWE wrestling events.

Well, Libertarians think differently. Not only do we oppose initiating force to achieve social or political goals, elected Libertarians treat their constituents, especially those who disagree, with respect.

You can help the Libertarian Party hold advocates of government-run medicine accountable. I am sending you a link to the Libertarian Party’s Responsible Legislator Pledge at http://www.lp.org/files/ReadTheBillPledge.pdf.

Please print it out, take it with you to your congressman or senator’s town hall meeting and politely and respectfully ask them to sign it and agree to one simple promise. Don’t vote for any federal health care legislation you have not read in full, and understand.

They have two options. Refuse to sign it, and admit they don’t read major legislation before they vote. Or sign it, and be held personally accountable for everything in the bill. Unlike they did with the pork in the “stimulus” bill, they can’t claim to know about the outlawing of private insurance, the billions in new taxes, the waiting lists and the “end of life planning.”

Democrats are calling out the thugs because they want Americans to stop talking about their plan. Do your part to restore accountability to Congress. Click here to print out your own copy of the Libertarian Party Responsible Legislator Pledge. Or go to http://www.lp.org/files/ReadTheBillPledge.pdf.

Take it to your local town hall and politely ask your congressman or senator if they will actually read the bill and take personal responsibility if they plan to support government-run medicine.
With optimism,

Donny Ferguson
Director of Communications
Libertarian Party

It's Official!

Well get ready Spartanburg County. Today at Noon we met at the Spartanburg County Courthouse Steps. We met to Officially launch the Party. We had to meet to elect the County Party Officials.

So Spartanburg County Officially has a Libertarian Party! This is the third attempt at the County Party. I'm not really for sure what happened the first go round. However I knew the woman who got it organized the second time around, Jenni Messel. Unfortunately Jenni was afflected with a Heart Condition that took her life in 2007. My first post on this blog is actually dedicating this blog to her and her memory. she was a great woman, one that will truly be missed.

But the plan is to hit the ground running. So keep an eye out, coming soon will be many. There is hopes to have the website up and running in the next few weeks.

So keep tuned for all of the excited things to come. If any of you reading this wants to become an active part just let me know and we will get you involved.

My Rants and Raves.... Well mainly Rants!

I thought with as much as is going on here lately that i just need Rant or Vent on the current state of the affairs in this country. So i thought, what the heck, why not just do a post and combine them all into one post. So here i go.



Bob Inglis

I was informed a few days ago about the Town Hall Meeting our Politician was having in Boiling Spring by a great young lady. Unfortunately i got the dates wrong, i was planning on attending, but i thought it was next week, so i missed the event.

But to digress for a moment from my thoughts, I would like to say thank you to Victoria Garrett for letting me knowing about it and filling me in on what transpired at the meeting. Now i hope i don't embarrass her in any way, since she doesn't know i am talking about her, but i wish we had more young people such as herself. Now a days you don't find very many Recent High School Graduates that are really concerned with the state of this country, the state of our citizens, and even the state of our rights. Victoria keep up the great work, i know it is frustrating, but worth it. Hopefully one of these days she will grace the Libertarian Party with her presence. Thanks for posting the video of the meeting - See it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMs47TSA0M4

But back to my rant. Last night this Pompous Prick of a Politician had the nerve to tell the attendees that they needed to stop watching TV, stop watching Glenn Beck, because they are making this situation worse. Well for you Mr Inglis. When will you learn who you work for. I am personally sick of people such as yourself and some other politicians that spew this conservative speech when it is convenient, but spew the liberal mantra other times. Why don't you stand up for once. I am sick of Politicians like this jackass. I hope this pompous prick doesn't get elected the next time around.



Lindsey Graham

Wow, where do i start with this guy. First off, Is it a must to kiss up and brown nose to who ever is power? Face it, you were stuck up Bush's ass when he was in power, putting yourself on what ever news program you could get on to spew his "Conservative" programs. I used that term loosely seeing as how we had a lot of programs got into effect during that time that stripped our rights away from us (But to conservative politicians that is ok, because they don't agree with those rights anyway). Now with the current administration he is doing the exact same thing. Hey Lindsey, to be frank, grow up a set and actually stand up for something on your own. But my main reason for bringing up him is because to be such a conservative, he sure was quick to vote for Sotomayor, a person who thinks that its the judges who should be coming up with the laws, not the Legislature, which is a blatant smack in the face of the Constitution. Thanks Mr Graham for not standing up for the document that makes this country what it is. You are another one that should fear your next election.

Obama Care
I think this is the biggest fiasco that i have seen come out Washington. A plan to make health care affordable, by giving government control. When has anything become affordable by giving government control over it. This plan, from what i have read (and i must admit at 1000 pages i haven't had time to read much of it) will give the government the right to demand that you take their program if you don't have insurance (or fine you if you don't), the right to come into your house and talk with you about your parenting skills, the right to demand to see your child's immunization records. And due to higher taxes being placed on smaller businesses, it will force these businesses to not offer insurance to their employees, which will force them to take this government care. Now with that being said, it was funny about when during the last presidents terms that we heard tons about how the Medicare system would be going bankrupt if something was not done, why was this? It was because it is managed and run by the government. Why is it that now everyone believes with a new president that it will now miraculously be run adequately? And then on top of that where will the money come from? Middle class, regardless to what the lib's want you to believe. Majority of tax hikes are aimed at the middle class, but the politicians will beat their chest or do a dance to keep your eyes and mind away from seeing that.
I am glad to see all of the protests about this. It makes me feel good inside to see people getting off of their asses and fighting back. Unfortunately with the two main parties being of one accord, it will take politician reform before that changes (hint, hint election of other party's such as the Libertarians!)

Government over stepping its bounds
In California a little 8 yr old girl decided to set up a Lemonade Stand to help her family raise money for a vacation. But unfortunately the overbearing government is trying to prove a lesson that they are not to be toyed with. The local government forced this little girl to shut down her lemonade stand because, get this, she did not have a permit. This is utterly ridiculous. These politicians need to grow a brain.

For those freedom fighters out there, keep up the good work. I know it is frustrating at times, and you want to give up sometimes, but keep up the fight. It is only through our work that freedom will ever have a chance to flourish in this country again.

Revenge of the Media Whores

Well leave it up to our Former Chief Media whore and his minions of Media Call Girls to come in and save the day.

Yesterday our former president had to come in and save the day for our nation, and our current president. Not one to let his name fall far from our ears, he had to come in and save the day for 2 Americans being held in North Korea.

I'm sure everyone knows of the story of these two women. They were 2 "reporters" that were arrested and punished in North Korea. And there has been a big push to free these two women.

But there is more then meets the eyes on this story. These women weren't simply "reporters" as our fearless media propagandist would have you believe it.

These women were working for the "Saviour" of the environment Al Gore, a media whore in his own right, especially on the Internet he created. I have not found an actual reason for why they went (the media will probably never let it out if it were nefarious). These women, contrary to popular belief, actually snuck across the border into North Korea. And not only did they knowingly sneak across the border into the country, they filmed the entire process. So these women were knowingly breaking laws in the process of whatever they were doing.

So these women, in my opinion, deserved the punishment they received, seeing as that is the punishment for such a crime. I wish once our politicians leave office that they would leave the public eye. But unfortunately our recent politicians will whore themselves out to whatever media outlet for whatever reason possible. Anything to keep themselves in the public eye.

If you go to another country and knowingly break their laws, you deserve whatever punishment you get. And our government should break its back trying to get you freed!

So if you are wanting to be part of this please feel free to join me on Saturday.

See you there.

The Intentions were Admirable

Well i read a report this morning about a group of Federal Judges that have given the State of California 45 days to come up with a working solution to reduce the number of state inmates to a more acceptable range. The 33 prisons in California are housing inmates at a rate of 300% above the intended population.

When i first saw this is must saw i was excited. You mean there will actually be a movement starting to actually save taxpayers money, not to mention that there will be people to actually be part of society. These convicts will actually get a chance to be part of the American dream. And more than likely the many who have been convicted for being a casualty of war, will be the ones freed (A war on drugs that our government will never win, all while dropping trillions of dollars in the process. But their are those who protest the Gulf Wars because of it being an "illegitimate war", why aren't they protesting this war, but i digress).

But then i started to really digest all of the story. And some things started to turn my stomach on this issue. The biggest one is why the Federal Government is getting involved. This is a state issue and the Federal Government should never be involved in such things as these.

This one action, as well intented as it may be, is just another example of our federal government sticking their noses more and more into the affairs of the states, and into the affairs of our lives. It is getting to the critical point, the point of no return, per se, we must push back against the intrusion by the federal government.

What...Expect them to do their jobs?

We all know that we elect politicians to basically do our Political Bidding, or at least that is the way it is SUPPOSED to be. They are elected to represent us in our government. And as we all know, they are required to vote on laws that will effect us all. And as a elected representative, they are elected to vote on behalf of the voting citizenry in their districts. And as common sense has it, you always read a document before giving your take on it, much less vote on it.

Now i said that to explain how it is supposed to work. But as we all know, once they get to Washington they all have to go through a series of brainwashing sessions to desensitize them to the fact that they work on behalf of us, or at least that is the way it seems. With the exception of the great, Honorable (which is a term i rarely use for politicians) Ron Paul. So when they get to Washington they work for the lobbyists, and themselves, not for the population.

But they should still know when they vote what it is they are voting for. But as most of us freedom fighters know, this is not what happens. And today the cat is out of the bag, by one of the politicians of all people.

John Conyers of Michigan (the news made sure to report him as a Democrat, but to me it doesn't matter, Republican or Democrat, whats the difference anymore) was asked about reading the bills and this was his response:

“I love these members, they get up and say, ‘Read the bill,’”
“What good is reading the bill if it’s a thousand pages and you don’t have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you read the bill?”

Hmmm. What good is reading a bill? Lets see, because if you don't read the bill you don't know what you are voting on. Not that it matters to you, since you politicians think you are above the law, but when you vote for a bill, you could be voting for something that will strip Freedom and Constitutional right away from the citizens of this country (Cough, Cough, Patriot Act).

I think that we should start demanding that our elected officials, those who work for us (We Do Pay Their Salaries) start reading each and every bill that comes before them. then we can truly force their hands on those bills. Because why would they listen to us about a bill that they themselves know nothing about.

There is a group called Downsize DC that has taken this issue on. They have been working on it for atleast a year now. They are trying to get a bill introduced that will require each and every bill to be read by the Congressional Politicians. I strongly urge you to put your support behind them on this matter.

You might think it is a big deal now. but what will happen when in the future they vote on a bill that strips all rights laid down by the Constitution (they are already doing it little by little), all because we are not forcing our elected ones to read the bills and vote accordingly on our behalf.

The Official Kick Off!

On August 8th at the Spartanburg County Courthouse at Noon, will be the Official Launch of the Spartanburg County Libertarian Party.

At this launch we will be electing the committee for the county party. We will also be electing the county party Chairman, as well as electing a representative to the State Party Committee.

We thought this was to have taken place last week. However the State Committee ran in the press release that it would take place on August 8th. This actually is better as we hoping for a great turn out, the extra time will hopefully allow more people to etch the time into their schedules.

So if you want to be part of a party organization from the ground floor, make time to attend this event. We, as Libertarians, need to try our best to turn out for this event. I am hoping that this will only be the start of great political things to come for this county.

So i hope you all will be able to attend and help us elect some great people to some exciting roles within this county, as well help setup bylaws for our county party.

Hope to see all freedom loving Spartanians (i think i just made up a new word) come out and help start the process.

Political Differences

I have been thinking a good bit here lately about what the differences between the political parties. At least the 2 branches of the one political party, and my party of choice, the libertarians. And you could go on for days about the differences between the three. But it hit me this morning and what hit me was in very easy terms.

Republicans
The Republicans believe you should have the right to do however you please with your life and property only as long as it fits into their belief's of what you should do with that right.

Democrats
The Democrats believe that you should have the right to do as you please with your life and property only as long as the government has the ultimate say in what you do.

Libertarians
The Libertarians believe that you should have the right to do as you please with your life and property as long as it does not harm or take away the rights of another person.


The great thing about this country is your right to choose which of these is best for you. But which one of these gives you the most potential?

We meet again!

Tomorrow at noon we will be meeting at the Spartanburg County Courthouse. This time we will be voting on who will be the Chairman for the Spartanburg County Libertarian Party. We will also be voting on a representative to the State Libertarian Party. Also at this meeting we will be determining a time and place for our monthly party meetings, as well as bylaws.

So if you are part of the Libertarian Party, or are wanting to switch your party affiliation to Party of Rights, come join us. We would love to have as an active part of the party. Not to mention you would actually be part of a party where you would have a say in the party.

We need everyone to come out and become an active vital part of this party.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Political Economics 101

I read a report today that makes me really scratch my head in utter disbelief. It really just shows how disconnected our politicians are from reality. The reality of economics.

Joe "I need a muzzle" Biden was speaking to an AARP group about healthcare. And what he says just really highlites the lengths to which our Elected Officials have gone to get away from responsible decision making, not to mention their forgetfullness of Economics 101.

Joe was discussing the new Obama Deathcare System when he said the following:

"And folks look, AARP knows and the people with me here today know, the president knows, and I know, that the status quo is simply not acceptable. It’s totally unacceptable. And it’s completely unsustainable. Even if we wanted to keep it the way we have it now. It can’t do it financially. We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation”.

Well OK Joe, you got this one right. Because of you and the rest of the asinine politicians in Washington, our country is going bankrupt. It is a fact. I'm just glad someone is finally admitting it.

But not to be outdone, even by himself, he continues on.

“We’re going to go bankrupt as a nation, now, people when I say that look at me and say, ‘What are you talking about, Joe? You’re telling me we have to go spend money to keep from going bankrupt? The answer is yes, that's what I’m telling you."

Wow, how does that happen? How do you spend your way out of Bankruptcy? Let me check my copy of Economics for Dummies...... Just as i expected to find. When one is in a time of Financial Trouble, one needs to cut back on spending. Financial Trouble occurs when the finances you have going out exceed the finances coming in. So how in hell is it ever going to be possible to spend your way into prosperity? Spending historically has reduced prosperity.

But i just realized that the copy of the book that the politicians read from is Economics for Dummies (The Non Common Sense Edition).

So people, get ready. Our country is driving down the road to Bankruptcy, and our politicians are steering the bus. We better get off, take over the bus, or be ready for the Chinese to repossess the bus.

The Soon To Be Shrinking Social Class

All throughout history, the masses have been against one group or social class. It is one fact that will never change. Whites and Blacks against each other, Protestants against Catholics, Greeks against Persians, Communists against Capitolists, and in the current era there are two that the masses are against the Rich and big Business.

Everytime i turn around i am hearing that the rich in this country need to pay more taxes. There is insinuation that the rich in this country are sitting back not paying a dime into the system all while living off of the fruits of the system. Which i believe to be untrue. If we were to look closely it would actually be the lower class that are doing exactly. But that is a discussion for another time.

I was looking through the news today and i found an article that is a little scary to me, especially in the tax system we have now.

With this tax and spend hungry government we have now, it is reported that the rich in New York State could be paying as much as 57% of thier income in taxes. This looks to be because of the new tax burden that the soon to pass Obama Deathcare system would cause as well as New York governments failure to cut spending.

The lower class (Middle and Lower Classes) tend to sit back and say "Well they have the money to be able to afford that". But just remember, never does a promised tax hike on the Upper Class remain exclusively on the Upper Class. This is partly because of our greedy politicians. Once they see that they can exploit one group, it is not long until they spread that to everyone.

But one thing the masses (and greedy government) forget to realize is that the majority of tax burden is felt by the Upper class. To the tune of the top 2 % of the earners in this country cover 98% over the tax burden of the populace. So when the Upper Class feel that they are being overly taxed, guess what they will do? Leave, as i would if i were in that situation. And when they leave, there goes the tax dollars. Thus putting the other classes of tax payers on the hook for more and more money.

So we the people need to fight back against the over extended hand of our tax and spend government. If we don't stand up for those that have succeeded in the field of wealth, then we will be eventually paying more and more to a out of control system.

And don't forget that with the Upper Class goes the paychecks the companies they own pay out. So your ability to earn is gone as well.
