Turn your head and cough, America. Dr. Uncle Sam will see you now.

America is sick, and our doctor is the Federal Government. (Universal Health Care. YEAH!!!) Since George Washington all the way up until last October, the US Federal Deficit was $10,000,000,000,000.00, combined. That's right, it took us 219 years to rack up 10 Trillion dollars worth of debt.

"Okay my wise and learned colleagues," do you know how much the Federal Government has spent since October 2008? Drum roll Please...........................

$9,700,000,000,000.00 That's 9.7 Trillion for those of us educated in the public school system.

Is it too late to get a second opinion? According to Newsweek, yes. Yes, it is too late. This weeks cover for the "runner-up to Time Magazine for the number times Obama was spotlighted" says "We are all socialists now"



So my next question is... Do I have to buy my own boots... or does big brother, er, I mean the Government issue them to me?

Back to my opening statement of America being sick, look at it this way. If you consider America to be one giant corporation, then the the Federal government is "Big Labour". Last week in Washington D.C., Union thugs lined up to protest in support of card check. What is this you ask? No, it's not about a last look at your hand before you go all in (although...), no, it's the ability of Unions to do away with secret ballots and to be able to unionize a company with a simple majority of 50% + 1. No secret ballot means that union thugs, er, I mean reps, can come to your home and ask you if you are going to support unionization of the company you work for. President Obama is for this. Oh yeah, the only way a company owner can get out of their business being unionized, is to go out of business. And not just go out of business and re-open somewhere else, your doors are closed for good. Everywhere. So I ask you folks in the auto industry, and the aviation industry, and the sea ports, and education... how are those union deals working out for ya?

One more little tid-bit of information, did you know that the only place a union cannot be organized is the Federal Government? Turns out Congress thinks that a union of the pages and staff would slow down their work too much.

O_O Really? Huh.
