FEAR Mongering?

Spread the love

Will the US default on its debt?

Will there be no mon­ey for the Old folks, the dis­abled, the blind, those with ter­mi­nal ill­ness­es.

The weak­est in our soci­ety?  The most ven­er­a­ble, in oth­er soci­eties, are often held with a kind­ness and a love, for their con­tri­bu­tion to soci­ety.

That does not seem to be the case if you have even both­ered to spend time in a nurs­ing home.

So will the vet­er­ans and the old, and the sick and the ter­mi­nal­ly ill be the fist to get hit by our mon­ey prob­lems?

Not like­ly, accord­ing to ana­lysts, who say that even with­out the abil­i­ty to bor­row more mon­ey, the gov­ern­ment could avoid a dev­as­tat­ing default for anoth­er week or so.

That rais­es the ques­tion of how urgent­ly action is need­ed to increase the nation’s bor­row­ing lim­it.

When you read that you have to say wow, this is real­ly bad, right, this is hor­ri­ble, right, this is crazy right?

Sure, it sounds like the end of the world, accord­ing to an arti­cle in yahoo news, (if it is real­ly news were not sure)

The thing is this, they say, that we need to increase the nations bor­row­ing lim­it but is that real­ly true or is that just fear mon­ger­ing.

If it is true, then where is the mon­ey being spent, are we send­ing it over seas to oth­er nations, (not that we can tell)

Well then where is all this mon­ey going, because it seems like there is a real­ly sim­ple solu­tion here, stop spend­ing so much mon­ey on noth­ing.

Or tell us what your spend­ing so much mon­ey on, the bail outs, were a bad bet, with bil­lions still owed by the car com­pa­nies, and the econ­o­my in such bad con­di­tion, who can afford to buy a new car?

See how it gets hard­er to believe, the thing here is this, how can you bor­row your way out of debt?

Again, the mon­ey is out there, in many cas­es there are cor­po­ra­tions that have bil­lions and bil­lions of dol­lars just sit­ting there because we have an out dat­ed tax sys­tem that pun­ish­es suc­cess and denies the abil­i­ty to grow as a nation, the sim­ple solu­tion is a flat tax, a capi­tol gains hol­i­day, pro­duc­ing more tax rev­enue, pro­vid­ing for the need.

It is real­ly not that hard to fig­ure out so what is real­ly going on is it some crazy aster­oid out there that were try­ing to fight and cant talk about?

No that’s just crazy, right, but you would think that the end of the world is about to take place by the tenor of the democ­rats in Wash­ing­ton.

One thing remains clear, we need to take some action and if we can­not bor­row any more mon­ey because we have already bor­rowed too much then its time to reduce some of the things that are cost­ing so much mon­ey like the post office, which lost more than 15 bil­lion dol­lars over the last five years?

When a busi­ness starts loos­ing that much mon­ey, you have to do some­thing about it, because you cant just keep on loos­ing that much mon­ey.
