How To Destroy the Government in Three Easy Steps

by Joe Brewer

In eight short years, conservatives have effectively bankrupted many state governments and left the fed in shambles. And now citizens have to "make tough decisions" and share the suffering equally across the land (unless of course, you're part of that lucky 1% who co-opted the functions of government to serve their own ends... they'll be cozy with their offshore bank accounts, golden parachutes, and permanent tax holidays).

Are you a teacher who educates our future citizens? Too bad. You've got to tighten your belt and let that job go. Manual laborer? Sorry but that job can earn more money for our shareholders if its done in Micronesia. Need a college degree? Prepare for indentured servitude because you'll be working to pay us off for most of your adult life. Health care? Ha! That's just a ponzi scheme dreamed up by a bunch of socialists.

Ever wonder how conservatives did all this?

Well here's your very own how-to manual for getting Big Government out of the way so you and your buddies can horde all the wealth to yourselves and build your empire.

I spent a good deal of time researchign the notion that the Fed should be abolished. I dont think America would survive without it. One thing is certain, we have had a much more stable economy that we had prior to its existinance. The gold standard was way too volital. I am also warming up to the the idea of a parially nationalize banking system. I dont think the govt (the people) should own more than 50% of any public banking institution, but its a thought...I dont know. Seems like England has less potential for volital market based swings.

FYI...is it me, or should all teh dang congressmen/women hand back thier campaign contribution from said crooked banking institutions. Seems to me that if they are going to set a salary (bonus) cap for the execs who are also handing congress cash donations (of what is now public money), then perhaps our (American public) cash should go where it belongs in this case...and that's not in the pockets of our screwball Congress.

The bankrupted states pretty much had a bigger hand their own demise than the feds. Im no fan of the federal government, in fact quite the contrary. According to the available stats, the states with the highest tas rates are also the ones in trouble...just sayin...

As far as putting it on the coservatives side of the aisle. I am blaming Congress for the whole damn screwed up economy. Both congressional parties are guilty as hell. They act like children most of the time. I'd like to see an honest attempt by both to erase the line in the sand box and try to build something together rather than constantly throw blame at each other.

World peace, clean environment, eraticated crim, social responsibility, etc. might be Utopia to most, but to me, having a cohesive government is my Utopia...with out it, the above list is unachievable and nothing more than a dream.

The American public must get over the blame game, before any forward movement is possible.
