Hate, it’s so easy a Caveman can do it.

What is with everyone? Have we become the United States of Triggered?

Hate and negativity is so easy, you spend your whole day looking for the bad in everything. I hate people that do (insert anything), why?

How bad is your life really? Did you know that the poorest person in America is still better off that most of the world? There are people without enough food, they wash clothes and dishes in polluted streams, they have refrigeration or air condition. Heck nevermind a TV or a game console etc.

Yes you sit there as an armchair General, keyboard warrior or self-deputized officer of the law raging about anything you can find.

Then there is the other group of you that if you hear something that your ears are sensitive to, you go off like an unstable stick of dynamite. “They didn’t use the proper pro-noun, you’re a racist, why do you hate children, you’re a Nazi, you’re a white nationalist” yada yada yada.

American your STUPIDITY is showing! You self-important, coddled people need to wake up and go on about your day and quit looking for things to hate. Find some joy in the world, watch puppy and kitty videos, find a park and take a book with you, go for a drive in the country.

Hey America, Do You Want Your Country back?

Did you say yes?  Well I am proud of you, now please read and learn the 18 Powers of Congress. These are the ONLY powers that are to govern the country as a whole. (more below)

Article 1 – The Legislative Branch
Section 8 – Powers of Congress

18 To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

__________________________________________________________________________

Most people spew the first one without knowing what it means, this is their favorite line ” provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States;”. The problem is it’s read out of context.

Defense in this case means control of the border aka the perimeter of the country, protecting citizens from foreign invaders, think when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.

Welfare, this is in reference to prosperity for the entire country and NOT that the Federal Government can do what they want. Had that been the intention there would not have been the list of the powers it did have.  https://tenthamendmentcenter.com/2014/08/28/the-general-welfare-clause-is-not-about-writing-checks/

So what does this mean? Here is the best part, if we cram the Federal Government back into the box it’s supposed to be in then we can return power to the States and each State and even at the county level can be run the way the local citizens want it.

Close the Department of Education at the Federal level, why let people who are so far from and removed from where you are decide how and what to teach your children? Why not have 50 Departments of Education 1 for each state? Then if you have an issue of what is being done in the schools you are working with people in your state and not some bureaucrat who will most likely never reply to you.

Roe vs. Wade this is another argument that is made. First of it’s unconstitutional, again if the states had the power then it could be decided by state or even county levels of government if they want to allow abortions. Then if you need this service you can drive to when they are legal.

Marijuana – same thing, let the states and counties decide, it’s not a Federal Power.

Same sex marriage – The LGBTQ community really did themselves a disservice recently. They have been up in arms for decades about be able to marry and wanted to be recognized. So they went to the the Federal Government and made a big stink about it and pushed to make it legal everywhere. What they should have done was read Article 1 Section 8 and said there is no law saying we can ‘t marry and proceeded to take on the states and eventually get government out of marriage. Why should you pay the government so that you can marry someone?  Many states still have common law marriages, meaning that if you live together for some amount of years you are viewed “as married”, if you introduce the person your living with as your spouse it can be used in court if there is a issue for example executing a will.

So long term what could happen, I can only speculate and that I shall.

So the amount of Federal employees would be less, all of the unconstitutional things they run would be shutdown. So I speculate that your Federal taxes would be smaller and possibly your federal tax for would be much simpler.

On the state site, they would be maybe providing more services so your tax dollars would maybe go up a but depending on what the people wanted to the local government to be in charge of.  Wouldn’t you rather have the bulk of the taxes you pay stay in your state? I know I would.

So Article 1 Section 8 plus the 10th Amendment is what we should all fight for regardless of who is in office or what our political leanings are.

It’s like the old adage, keep your friends close (Federal Government) and your enemies closer (State Government).

Liberals hate America, it depends on who is the President

https://news.gallup.com/poll/236420/record-low-extremely-proud-americans.aspx

I wish Liberals would learn to “feel” less and think more. Sure I did not care for Barack as my President, but I did not like my country any less. Actually, I liked my country the same and I disliked what that eight years did to her.

If you can hate a country based on its President then maybe you should consider dual citizenship and migrate when you are happy with who the President is.

I love my country, it’s the best country with the most opportunity anywhere.

I love when some leftist, liberal, progressive says “if you don’t like it leave”. Why should I leave there are 190 other countries for you to pick from that have various levels of capitalism, socialism, fascism. You’re the one with the issue, I like the country the way it is.

Find out what just one part of "fundamental transformation" is all about.

"When Barack Obama told “Joe the Plumber” that he wanted to “spread the wealth around,” he wasn’t just using a figure of speech.

 
Since the 2008 campaign, Stanley Kurtz has established himself as one of Barack Obama’s most effective and well-informed critics. He was the first to expose the extent of Obama’s ties to radicals such as Bill Ayers and ACORN.
 
Now Kurtz reveals new evidence that the administration’s talk about helping the middle class is essentially a smoke screen. Behind the scenes, plans are under way for a serious push toward wealth redistribution, with the suburban middle class—not the so-called one percent—bearing the brunt of it.
 
Why haven’t we heard more about policies that will lead to redistribution? In part, of course, because controversies over Obamacare, unemployment, and the exploding budget deficit have taken the media spot­light. But the main reason, according to Kurtz, is that Obama doesn’t want to tip his hand about his second term. He knows that his plans will alienate the moderate swing voters who hold the key to his reelection.
 
Drawing on previously overlooked sources, Kurtz cuts through that smoke screen to reveal what’s really going on. Radicals from outside the administration—including key Obama allies from his early community organizing days—have been quietly influ­encing policy, in areas ranging from edu­cation to stimulus spending. Their goal: to increase the influence of America’s cities over their suburban neighbors so that even­tually suburban independence will vanish.
 
In the eyes of Obama’s former mentors—fol­lowers of leftist radical Saul Alinsky—suburbs are breeding grounds for bigotry and greed. The classic American dream of a suburban house and high quality, locally controlled schools strikes them as selfishness, a waste of resources that should be redirected to the urban poor.
 
The regulatory groundwork laid so far is just a prelude to what’s to come: substantial redistribution of tax dollars. Over time, cities would effectively swallow up their surround­ing municipalities, with merged school dis­tricts and forced redistribution of public spending killing the appeal of the suburbs. The result would be a profound transforma­tion of American society.
 
Kurtz shows the unbroken line of continuity from Obama’s community organizing roots to his presidency. And he reveals why his plan to undermine the suburbs means so much to him personally.
 
Kurtz’s revelations are sure to be hotly dis­puted. But they are essential to helping vot­ers make an informed choice about whether to reward the president with a second term." – from Amazon web site

Have you ever ready a story about cops that go to far?

Well then have a gander at this book and find out what is going on.

"The last days of colonialism taught America’s revolutionaries that soldiers in the streets bring conflict and tyranny. As a result, our country has generally worked to keep the military out of law enforcement. But according to investigative reporter Radley Balko, over the last several decades, America’s cops have increasingly come to resemble ground troops. The consequences have been dire: the home is no longer a place of sanctuary, the Fourth Amendment has been gutted, and police today have been conditioned to see the citizens they serve as an other—an enemy.

Today’s armored-up policemen are a far cry from the constables of early America. The unrest of the 1960s brought about the invention of the SWAT unit—which in turn led to the debut of military tactics in the ranks of police officers. Nixon’s War on Drugs, Reagan’s War on Poverty, Clinton’s COPS program, the post–9/11 security state under Bush and Obama: by degrees, each of these innovations expanded and empowered police forces, always at the expense of civil liberties. And these are just four among a slew of reckless programs.

In Rise of the Warrior Cop, Balko shows how politicians’ ill-considered policies and relentless declarations of war against vague enemies like crime, drugs, and terror have blurred the distinction between cop and soldier. His fascinating, frightening narrative shows how over a generation, a creeping battlefield mentality has isolated and alienated American police officers and put them on a collision course with the values of a free society." – from Amazon web site
