Spending Us Into Bankruptcy

The President and this current Administration seem intent upon spending the US into bankruptcy.

A slash in taxes, followed by war and hurricanes and the President's promise to spend all that was necessary to resolve these issues without increasing taxes all seem fundamentally naive.

The economy remains sluggish and Americans are not comfortable with the economy regardless of what the numbers may say and especially regardless of proclamations by the President or other officials. People know what they feel in their heart and what they feel - what they sense if a potential weakness in the economy.

In this case, people's feelings and the reality are at odds. The economy is slow and sluggish but surprisingly stable, strong and resilient.

It is strong because despite attempts by the White House to undermine the economy by a "spend, spend, spend" philosophy, the nation has not yet succumbed to a recession.

The Administration seems desperate to induce a recession and possibly a depression in order to increase its power over the rights and liberties of the American people.

The goal of this Administration all along has been to increase its power over the people and deny the essential liberties and rights this nation was based on and further degrade and erode the morals and ethics of a formerly moral and upright people.
