It’s 9/11: Do You Know WHO Your President Is?
Nobody Remembers
It’s almost here, the tenth anniversary of 9/11. We will be watching the horrible pictures of the Twin Towers being destroyed again and again, with enough footage to make your heart-break all over, again and again.
I was searching through the video’s of 9/11 memorials, when I came across this one. Made by some people who wanted to give a few pictures of their talented dogs. And why not? It made me laugh…no disrespect to those that lost loved ones and will suffer forever…it was just a small token of appreciation from a couple of nobodies and their dogs…to the soldiers overseas.
Here it is ten years after, and the damage from that day never seems to end. In fact, you could almost say, we not only lost a couple of buildings that day filled with thousands of people, we lost our future. We have given up cherished freedoms for safety and yet we are told that we are still vulnerable. The scars from that day will last a lifetime and the money spent on trying to change all the Muslims Nations is bankrupting us along with everything else. Nobody will wonder if America elected Barack Hussein Obama to show how magnanimous a people we really are.
Whatever you may think about whether the buildings coming down were staged, or how it happened, one fact sticks out like a rubber ducky in a bathtub: Our leaders had plenty of warning, and did nothing. Their incompetence was almost criminal. I was listening to the pilot of Air Force One today who said they got all their facts from the cable news (on the plane) on 9/11. Do you buy that?
I don’t. Just like I wouldn’t buy that lady in the video doesn’t really love that dog.
After we were attacked, Bush sounded very bullish, went to Iraq, and fought a politically correct war. Today he has come out BEFORE the speech this weekend, to remind us all that he deserve the credit for the capture of bin Laden, so that Obama doesn’t take it away from him for eternity.
Sad, but that’s politics.
And nobody is sadder than the people who lost love ones that day. And— Nobody is mad that so many people voted for a man after 9/11 who insisted on keeping his Muslim name, after so many people had died at the hands of Allah.
What… an…insult. What idiots.
We have all heard, that in this day of mourning, God and his clergy will not be allowed to take part this year in the ceremonies. Firefighters are not welcomed, police are not welcomed, the families will be kept far away… but you can bet every politician in D.C. will be there, saying, “God bless America.”
Will Obama speak in Arabic? Will he talk of the peaceful people that he knows and loves? Will he talk about the great religion of Islam? It’s been ten years…where are they? Obama has made 9/11 a day of “service” but you know and I know, that to all of us that still have the grace that God gave us, it will always be a day of prayer.
I plan to watch this video at least a few times more, and I will be thinking of our President….whose dog days, (I will pray with all my heart and every doggie leap) …are numbered.
China-St. Louis: The New Global City-State Begins
Nobody Knows
“Under the white population of the United States of America only the reactionary classes oppress the black population. Under no circumstance can they represent the workers, farmers and revolutionary intellectuals and other enlighten people who form the majority of the white population.” –Mao Tse-tung
Many of my readers may have wondered why I was all gung-ho on Donald Trump when he said he might run for President earlier this year. Like many Americans, I like the way he laid into the Chinese, who he claims laughs at us, and he’s right. Our ‘elected’ politicians have been selling out American for years to the Chinese, and now, starting next year, China has picked a hub to claim as her own…St. Louis.
And WE (the local taxpayers and that includes me) are going to build it for her—like it or not. The rest of it that is: We’ve been building the airport infrastructure for over a decade…waiting…waiting…waiting for China.
Yes, we the people of St. Louis built a humongous runway, starting about fifteen years ago. All the negotiations have been done in secret, but we didn’t need it. It’s a ghost runway. But with the global chess board we see they make the deals: China lets in GE, Disney, Microsoft, Ford, etc, to their markets, and now, they want direct access to ours. They are trying to sell it as good for our dead city…the Chinese will bring jobs, not that we have any say in the matter because we don’t.
China is moving in, with the blessings of both political parties. China is asking Missouri taxpayers to build a cargo hub called Aerotropolis, for the use of Shanghai- based China Cargo Airlines. Our politicians expect to give the Chinese $360 million in tax credits to subsidize this cargo hub, with millions of square feet of warehouse and factory space.
(If you build it, they will come…)And there will be one man, who will determine who GETS that money.(see above video) We can all guess who that will be…(see video below.)
China will flood the country with its products, and in return Monsanto (whose world headquarters is here) will send its food back to China. Monsanto will use the Midwest area for a vast global farming experiment, and who knows what deals they have worked out?
It seems obvious, to this nobody, that when the dams were broken all up and down the middle of the country this spring and the little farmers were flooded out of their family homes, that OUR government had other plans for that fertile area. We will be working with China to feed not only our country but theirs. And more than likely, they will bring in their own people to do the work. No? Read this:
Phyllis Schlafly: Despite California’s 10 percent unemployment, China will son finish rebuilding the great Sand Francisco Oakland Bay bridge damaged in the 1989 earthquake. A Chinese company built the construction machinery and the 12 bridge segments in China and is installing them in California using 3,000 imported Chinese workers (steal cutters, welders, engineers etc) paid $12 a day, workingl7 a.m. till 11 p.m., seven days a week, and sleeping in a company dorm. (See more here)
Like the illegal’s being flooded into our country, with the help of our own politicians (that includes Mr. Perry) this too will come to pass.
Van Jones, Obama’s green jobs boy, already has plans for the blacks here to become farmers. Learning how to grow crops is being instigated into our school systems in the guise of teaching kids to eat healthy. Fifty years from now, the city will be half Chinese, and half black, and most everyone will be working for China lifting crakes, or planting squash, just like they do in China.
Tell me, who benefits from this?
A young man from St. Louis, when reading of this fabulous China coming to “take ” over our basically dead city said this:
Where I see this getting interesting though, is that St Louis sits in the middle of the bread basket and it could become a much larger player in the agricultural industry. Not just food, but seed, fertilizer, feed and vaccines as well..
The young have already been brainwashed.
If Trump were President, would he keep the Chinese from taking over our country from the inside?
I don’t know, but NOBODY, and I mean nobody else on the political scene is taking about the big fat Mao in the room…and they should be.
You know, our airport had a direct hit last spring by a F-5 tornado. I live not far from there, and have myself witnessed cannons of some kind of fire, being shot into the sky from around the airport. China is the leader in weather modification. And you know what Mao always like to say…
“It’s always darkest before it becomes totally black.”
Really? Something tells me the ‘majority” of the white workers, farmers, and other “enlightened” people who form the majority of the population might disagree.
Ray Stevens Gives Clues to Obama’s Speech…
Nobody Knows …
Why I like this guy, but I do. “President” Obama is going to give his speech on the “budget” and “jobs” but Ray Stevens sums it up for you…you won’t even have to listen to it.
I’ve had one of those days…you know the kind, you’re on schedule and then…someone calls you from the past, and you spend two hours catching up, and then admits a high school crush on your best friend, who just lost a husband, and so you call HER up, and before you know it..you tell her, and the world is spinning with possibilities and laughter and…then all of a sudden, you find out the world of politics is exactly the same as it was yesterday, and that essay on the stupidity of some Muslim women that was in your head seems to evade you,..along with he fact that men cannot throw their 7- year- olds off a boat anymore without some slack.
The MOST important headline of the day was Obama making up his mind when to give his new budget/jobs speech, without upsetting half the country.
I’m going out on a limb and predict that tomorrow…Obama will play golf.

Never Let a Good Hurricane Go To Waste
Nobody’s Opinion
Nothing like a hurricane to get your mind off a war. All day long, according to all reports, the world was going to end. Well, at least the eastern seaboard. Irene, the Irish bitch was coming. The President was so concerned about 65 million people and their last days on earth, that he left Martha’s Vineyard, mostly because it’s going to get hit with a lot of rain too…spoils golf time.
We’re Nobody’s Fool. If you think he left to go back to work, think again. He’ll be in Hawaii to finish that vacation in less time than it takes Joe Biden to think.
All the cops, the mayors, the governors, and the weathermen, were standing bravely in their raincoats weathering the wind and rain. “LEAVE! RUN!” , they all said, or if you stay, be sure you have everything you need to last you for weeks because that’s how long the power will be off. Also, leave us a note as to what to do with your body.”
NOBODY did not made that up. I actually heard them say this.
Still, ya gotta love the New Yorkers. Everyone is pretty much ignoring him for the good reason that, the storm is already losing power due to the fact that they all do when they hit land, and the eye is no longer there…its downgrading..by the time it hits Long Island, Obama will be eating pineapples in Hollywood.
STILL— Mayor Bloombomb of New York is shutting down the city. No subways, no buses, no trains, and you’d better not eat any salt, or you might get arrested…
And speaking of getting arrested…You might want to hide that Spanish guitar you have in the basement. Unless you belong to the New York Philharmonic, you could be busted for even owning an “endangered” wood. (Okay, I thought of Bill Clinton too…but let’s not go there.) The Gibson Guitar Manufacturing Company was “busted” into by ‘ARMED’ Fish and Wildlife government men, who took guitars, computers, and lots of wood. The company has not been formally charged with doing anything, but the stunt has cost the company over $1 million dollars.
Nobody Wins when a government goes out to bully and harass an American company that gives lots of non-union jobs, and also, money to the Republicans. This stinks of Nazi’s. There must be Jews making guitars. Somebody check.
Nobody Wonders just what kind of a deal Obama worked out in India on his last trip, and WHY they needed to be armed? What? Did they think Jeff Beck was going to rip their heads open with the neck of a Stratocaster?
Really, why don’t they just plant some more trees? What’s the problem here? We can bring snakes from Africa, why not Indian trees? Seems if the guitars are made in India by Indians, then the company can stay in business…and speaking of staying in business….
Poor Steve Jobs. He is on death’s doorstep, with that horrible pancreatic cancer. By the looks of him, maybe he should just go sit on Long Island and wait for Irene. Many are worried about how Apple is going to be able to keep its head after he’s gone, but then again, it seems by looking at him, he kept alive till he reached his final goal…making Apple the biggest company in the World. Nobody’s Perfect Steve, but when it came to business Steve, you came pretty close. Let’s hope you cheat death a good while longer…
And speaking of death..
Nobody Flashes the news that NATO has been on the ground in Libya all along! Who knew? France, England and the United States are chopping at the bits for their ‘due’ reward.
Leaving aside the massive profits from the rebuilding that Libya is now going to need, there are vast oil spoils to distribute. The Libyan oil industry produced 1.6 million barrels a day prior to the war. The country is thought to have 46 billion barrels of reserves – the largest in Africa.
Is it any wonder Putin is going around flexing his muscles? Still, Nobody Cares about the cost of this “war”. It seems, while the natives fought on the ground for their “land” no hospitals were around to take care of the wounded. A 10 -year-old was shot in the back, and had to lay in the hospital for days…all the doctors had left.
Nobody Remembers how Obama said we were getting in for ‘humanitarian’ reasons. Uh…tell that to the hundreds of corpses lying around. Still, what’s a few bodies when you have now the biggest oil field in Africa? Very smart. Use the natives on the front lines, then go in and grab the oil. (And since they were Al-Qaeda, Nobody Thinks it’s a good plan.)
And it’s all in the plans: When you have a hurricane disaster approaching, you prepare. I mean, really, how many people can AFFORD even the gas to escape Irene? Not to mention the hotel costs, the fast food, meals, and the pets? Nope. Stay home. Unless you are right on the beach.
As Rahm Emanuel would say, “Never let a crisis go to waste.” Scare the people really good, all 65 million of them, and they will go out and buy just about everything they can lay their hands on. Stocks will soar.
Chains such as Home Depot Inc, and Wal-Mart Stores Inc., were doing brisk business on Friday, selling water, flashlights, batteries and other goods in states standing in Irene’s potential track from the Carolinas to Massachusetts.
Nobody Reports that Ben Bernanke did not have to give any more stimulus from his elite meetings in Jackson Hole.
Irene…did it for him. Now, all we need is just one more earthquake…
Vernon Jordon: The Mojo Corporate Black Ace in the Hole
*****
Can anyone say…”FOUR!!!” Wait…Shultz doesn’t even play golf, poor guy. Or is he just observing the white socks? As Shultz would say if he had been their caddy for the day…
Nobody Gets Email: History of Social Security
Nobody Knows
Not many of us know the real history of Social Security, but this email will explain that it was the democrats that grabbed it all, and ran. So, next time you hear Obama tell you how those mean Republicans want to take away grandma’s Social Security check, remember who caused it to fail in the first place.
Also, remember who threatened to cut those checks if he didn’t get more money from YOU!
(Thanks to Tom Beebe)
History Lesson On Your Social Security Card
It doesn’t matter if you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are facts. Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the Message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.
Our Social Security:
Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program and signed the law in August of 1935. He promised:
1. That participation in the program would be completely voluntary. (No longer Voluntary)
2. That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual incomes into the program. (Now 7.65% on the first $90,000)
3. That the money the participants elected to put into the program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year. (No longer tax deductible.)
4. That the money the participants put into the Independent “Trust Fund” rather than into the General Operating Fund, and therefore would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program and ..( Under Johnson the money was moved to The General Fund and Spent.)
5. That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income. (Under Clinton and Gore Up to 85% of your Social Security can be taxed.)
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month…and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we PAID to the Federal government to “put away”—you may be interested in the following:
Q: Which political party took Social Security from the Independent “Trust Fund” and put it into the General Fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate.
Q. Which political party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A: The Democratic Party.
Q: Which political party started taxing Social Security annuities?
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the ‘tie-breaking’ deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the U.S..
Q. Which political party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?
A: That’s right! Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them even though they never paid a dime into it!
Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take away your Social Security! —-Dick Kantenberger.
Nobody Knows: Agenda 21
Nobody Knows
Anyone who has read me for some time, knows that I happen to think there is an elite group of various powerful men and women, who have taken upon themselves to “save the planet.” Well, it’s nothing new in history, but it’s even more dangerous now in this time, due to our technology, which happens to be all in their hands. I have thought this for years, because it seems to be the only thing that makes sense.
People make mistakes, but when you see who benefits the ‘mistakes’ it starts to form a pattern.
So, I’m keeping this short. This video shows a bit of what many have been planning, and if you logically consider all the events in the world, and how they seem to all point to one direction, you will start to watch for it.
Black has become white. The Tea Party people are dangerous? There are black riots everywhere, and no one is talking about them? My own local Police chief told me to move becasue I was worried about my Muslim neighbors meetings?
Our own government opened the flootgates to the little farmers this spring. And more and more people want us to be like “China.” I hear it all the time on the radio.
And as you can see from this video (on Doug Powers site) they are going full force with the little ones.
I’m going to stop talking, because, it’s just so damn…insane. But, if you have the time, the video is worth it.

Nobody’s Perfect: Geithner VS Lallona
Nobody’s Perfect
This week, nobody can compete or even compare imperfections with our own Wizard of Hogwarts Economics, Timothy Geithnor. Mr. Geithner holds the fine title of being the first Secretary of the United States Treasury to cause the fine AAA credit that we have managed to keep since 1917, to downgrade.
Of course, he did not do this remarkable feat all by himself— but he has made himself the laughing stock not only of all Chinese children, but everyone else in the world, and also, no doubt, most of Hogwarts.
Why? Because in April of this year he insisted that in no way was there any “risk” that the United States would be downgraded by anyone. (see video)
On the other side of the coin (hopefully yours is gold) we have a young man from Fullerton, California, who decided one day to put his semen in some lovely co-workers’s water bottle. I’m not sure what he was trying to do: make her gag, or maybe see if his DNA was strong enough to grow his child inside her stomach: With the sexual education being taught these days in our schools, one can never be too sure. Something tells me, she wouldn’t go out with him.
And who could blame her? He looks like he would drown little puppies in his morning milk. This was reported:
Superior Court Judge Walter Schwarm, who earlier sentenced Michael Kevin Lallana, 32, to 180 days in jail for two misdemeanor battery convictions, said Lallana needs to reimburse his victim for therapy and loss of wages after she left her employment following the incidents. And now he has to pay $27,410.80 in restitution.
If Mr. Kevin lived here in St. Louis, just last week he could have gone down to his local courthouse and for just $100 dollars he could have had all his misdemeanors forgiven. He should live here if he wants to keep being a pervert, but then..Nobody’s Perfect.
(And by the way….how did they come up with the 80 cents? Was that the price of the ruined bottles? )
Yes, Kevin went to jail for just the action of putting his semen into a ladies bottle, but Timothy Geithner so far, has seen no jail time whatsoever for robbing billions of people around the earth of their retirment funds. I wish he would have just gotten out a water bottle, squirted, and saved us all a lot of heartache.
Is the Mother Ship Shovel Ready?
NOBODY CARES
The big news today was: President Obama got lost inside the White House. Nobody can find him, and it is being reported that he has been taken by aliens and dumped on the mother ship for ANOTHER fantastic birthday party. Tom Hanks arranged the whole thing, as a surprise. Not that we care… we don’t. Standard and Poor’s downgraded the AAA credit of the United States today, and it was on this very important day in history that this Nobody got lost in the city of St.Louis. I started out heading South, then West, then East, then South, then West again, then North, then just about the time I was getting hungry, I decided to ask directions.
***
I had a map, but no glasses.
***
Yes, you would think after so many years roaming the side streets and inner deserts of St. Louis, and having played just about every dive and dump imaginable that I could never have gotten lost. I saw street upon streets of old dilapidated brick buildings that were never there before. Buildings built around the 1800’s and still somehow standing. Block after block— after block. Long ago, you could smell the brewery all over the town. Now, it’s pretty much the smell of urine.
***
Nobody prefered the old barley smell myself.
***
I always wonder if they leave those old buildings up just there to get their picture taken for the History Channel. The History Channel has a whole mini-series on “Life after People”, where they show how long it will take to rot the Empire State Building, the Eiffel Tower, the Hoover Damn, and the White House.
***
But don’t believe it. No matter what happens to this country, as we slide slowly into a third world country where 400 gang members of blacks can attack whites daily: where people are so desperate for money they steal the bronze statue of the noble dog: and Jesus’s image is being found everywhere on e-bay..toast, pizza, beer foam…Obama’s head–whatever… you can bet whoever is in the White House will be having a big lavish party for the President and all his buddies, and Bob Dylan will be singing….
***
“The Times They are a Chaaaaaanginnnng”…..(cough,cough)
***
So, as I found my way home after a day of worrying about my gas tank…(Do I turn ON the air conditioner, or… turn OFF the air conditioner?) it came as no surprise that the country has been downgraded. I could tell by the action of my gas tank. One block took up half a tank.
***
And after watching St. Louis die for over two decades all I can say is: it’s about time.
***
Someday, we will all be living in our cars…if they let us.
*** (Nobody makes this stuff up) Unfortunately, the mother ship was not shovel-ready, or I would be on it.)
Tyranny by 12
Nobody Knows
Didn’t I just say ‘READ BETWEEN THE LINES?’ the other day? Boy, I hate being right. Not only was this debt ceiling fiasco designed to do nothing, but stall and gather more money…it was a grand redesign of the Constitution. Congress couldn’t stop Obama from bombing Libya on a whim, and now, they won’t be able to stop anything any President does. This new 12-man jury will be hand-picked by the globalists from both parties, and we are heading down the superhighway to tyranny. It’s going to come really fast if no one in the Congress steps up and fights this. No debate?
It’s one thing to make a “counsil” to advise, but these men will have power over the rest of Congress.
Alex is right…why even send anyone to Washington? The Judge is pretty calm about this. He explains it well. BUT, this nobody tends to feel more like Alex Jones.
This is a sad, sad day. I can’t believe this is happening, right before our eyes.
This was probably one of the most historical moments in our country. Our Constitution, has just been destroyed…and what’s the most horrible thing to me, is that, it’s treated as just another little…nothing.
Who will speak out against this? Nobody Knows, but nobody will be watching.
Nobody’s Perfect: Congress VS Billy Joe
Let’s consider a few facts before we start comparing the two.
Remember, the father was drunk.
This week, we were told that our Congress and the President, reached a deal to “save” the country from default. Currently, if you can believe the stats: we have a $14 trillion dollar debt, and this deal will cut expenses by $21 billion in 2012, and $42 billion in 2013.
Wow.
They all did Obama a favor, they said, by letting it all slide till AFTER the elections. This was…more Washington as usual..smoke your mirrors and get out that flask of whiskey.
According to Ron Paul:
“This deal will reportedly cut spending by only slightly over $900 billion over 10 years. But we will have a $1.6 trillion deficit after this year alone, meaning those meager cuts will do nothing to solve our unsustainable spending problem. By denying members the ability to offer amendments and only allowing an up-or-down vote that will take place in the hectic time between Thanksgiving and Christmas, this Commission essentially disenfranchises the vast majority of members from meaningfully participating in the debate over reducing spending and balancing the budget.”“Furthermore, despite the claims of the bill’s proponents, there is nothing to stop the commission from recommending tax increases. What should bother Americans most is that under cover of this debt ceiling circus, we learned from a recent GAO one-time, limited audit that the Federal Reserve secretly pumped $16 trillion into American and foreign banks over three years. All of the Fed’s fat cat cronies were taken care of at the expense of the American public.”
So, what was this whole big, “The sky is falling and we will never get up!” facade that went on for weeks? It was all about…what? What really happened, it seems to this nobody, is that they are just getting a few more trillion to spend. An eight-year-old with half an education could have done a better deal.
And speaking of eight-year-olds…Billy Joe Madden was so drunk, he let his eight- year- old son drive to Texas from Mississippi, with his four- year -old sister in the back seat. Billy Joe was sent to prison, as well he should have been.
But…consider this: It was just reported that Washington D.C. has the highest alcohol rate of any city in the country among adults, at 8.1 percent. Another nifty statistic is that D.C. is among the top contenders when it comes to cocaine and marijuana use. Are we surprised? This explains why Marion Berry kept getting elected right next door to the White house…with the White House silent. The Mayor was caught on tape selling cocaine, and yet he was re-elected?
Doesn’t that tell you something?
Could it be, the reason the country is going off the road, is we are letting men and women with the experience of a stoned and drunk eight- year- old kid run the country?
Are they all drunk? High? Freaking out on coke? Shouldn’t they all be in prison with Billy Joe Madden with the crimes they have committed?
You have to hand it to that eight-year-old kid. Somehow he managed, despite having a drunk father sitting beside him, to get that pickup truck quite a few miles without hurting anyone.
If Congress was driving that car, it would have caused more than a few major fatalities and would be out of gas, engine on fire, framework all bent to hell, and it would still be in a ditch by the side of the road. With Congress in the driver’s seat, it would have never made it out of Biloxi.
And on that note…I think I’ll go have a drink.
Raise the Debt Limit: But Read the Fine Print
Nobody’s Opinion
Instead of accepting some compromise that can get through the democratic process, what they‘re saying is we’ll blow up the country if you don’t listen to us,” Zakaria said. “We’ll hold hostage the credit of the United States, the good standing of the United States and we’ll blow it up….it’s an extraordinary act of hostage-taking.”
The agreement would slice at least $2.2 trillion from federal spending over a decade, a steep price for many Democrats, too little for many Republicans. The Treasury’s authority to borrow would be extended beyond the 2012 elections, a key objective for Obama, though the president had to give up his insistence on raising taxes on wealthy Americans to reduce deficits.
The Americans “thought that money just reproduces by itself, and only in the financial sector, without having to produce any goods or services,” Fernandez said . These days, Latin America’s economy as a whole is expected to expand about 4.7 percent in 2011 — almost twice the expected rate in the United States — thanks to strong demand for the region’s commodities and a decade of mostly prudent fiscal management, itself the product of many hard-learned lessons of the past.
The protests over housing costs have tapped into wider discontent among Israelis over the high cost of living and the growing gaps between rich and poor. Other protests include doctors striking over working conditions and pay, parents demonstrating against expensive child rearing costs and similar outpourings over increasing gas prices.

An Entitlement?
What the hell is wrong here?
Remember, not only did you contribute to Social Security but your employer did too. It totaled 15% of your income before taxes. If you averaged only 30K over your working life, that’s close to $220,500. If you calculate the future value of $4,500 per year (yours & your employer’s contribution) at a simple 5% (less than what the govt. pays on the money that it borrows), after 49 years of working (me) you’d have $892,919.98. If you took out only 3% per year, you receive $26,787.60 per year and it would last better than 30 years, and that’s with no interest paid on that final amount on deposit! If you bought an annuity and it paid 4% per year, you’d have a lifetime income of $2,976.40 per month. The folks in Washington have pulled off a bigger Ponzi scheme than Bernie Madoff ever had.

| Entitlement my ass, I paid cash for my social security insurance! Just because they borrowed the money, doesn’t make my benefits some kind of charity or handout! Congressional benefits, aka. free health care, outrageous retirement packages, 67 paid holidays, three weeks paid vacation, unlimited paid sick days, now that’s welfare, and they have the nerve to call my retirement entitlements |
Emergency Rooms for their general health care -At just one hospital the cost to tax payers totaled over 25 million a year!!!
Someone please tell me what the HELL’s wrong with this country! We’re “broke” and can’t help our won Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homelss, etc?
In the last months we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile, and Turkey. And now Pakistan home of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS!
Our retired seniors living on a ‘fixed income’ receive no aid nor do they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour Hundreds of Billions of $$$$$$’s and Tons of Food to Foreign Countries!
They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most of us have been paying for it all our working lives and now when its time for us to collect, the government is running out of money. Why did the government borrow from it in the first place?
We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans.
AMERICA: a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without ‘needed’ meds, and mentally ill without treatment -etc,etc.
YET………………….
They have a ‘Benefit’ for the people of Haiti on 12 TV stations, ships and planes lining up with food, water, tents clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies.
Imagine if the *GOVERNMENT* gave ‘US’ the same support they give to other countries.
SAD?
YEAH, OK, SO WHEN DO WE GET PISSED AND
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT?????
99% of people won’t have the guts to forward this.
I’m one of the 1% — I Just Did
Since this email talks about what programs are NOT “entitlements”, let’s note what programs are, and their effect. Too many see that they get something for nothing from Uncle Sam, but forget who he is, so they go to and take from Sam Walton, because they’re “entitled”. They trash the stores, and say “why not? It makes jobs for the clerks that clean up after them.” Of course, they aren’t apying those clerks because they’re not paying for the merchandise they steal. guess who is? check your mirror. “entitlements” sprang from the war on poverty which, like almost every other war since WW-II, we have fought to a tie (Korea, Gulf War 1) or lost (Vietnam, Gulf War 2, Afghanistan, poverty and Drugs).

About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
