A PARTY OF NO? HELL NO

The main problem in America is that everyone wants everyone ELSE to sacrifice. The Alaska Native Corporation worked overtime to keep RINO pork barreler Lisa "Bridge to Nowhere" Murkowski in office simply because she brings home the pork to Alaska. THAT was what was on their commercials! She brings "federal money" home to Alaska. Here's a clue nitwits, there are FIVE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FOUR OTHER PIGS with their snouts in the trough, which is WHY we're about 14 TRILLION in the hole and climbing.

People, WE ARE BANKRUPT and y'all had BETTER start giving a damn unless you WANT to work for the Chinese, at a $1.50 an hour plus benefits cheap fish heads and rice, and maybe a pot sticker or two if you're good). That means, again, "its a shit sandwich and WE ARE ALL gonna have to take a big bite." (Libs first because THEY OWN THIS MESS, then RINOS!)

Has the Liberal Lapdog media promulgated the American Roadmap? Has anyone READ the 99 pages first offered in 2008? No, because Soros OWNS not only the Lapdog Media like Media Matters but also the Democrat Party en toto, and since Herr Doktor Evil wants to destroy America, it would never see the light of day but for the CRUSHING DEFEAT of the LEFTISTS in Nov 2010. This was down on paper and the Liberals STILL managed to ring up MORE DEBT than all other presidents COMBINED in just 18 MONTHS!

The Exec Summary from pages iii-vii states:

"A Roadmap for America’s Future is a comprehensive alternative to the heavily government-centered ideology now prevailing in Washington, which pursues a relentless expansion of government, creates a growing culture of dependency, and in the process worsens a status quo that already threatens to overwhelm the budget and smother the economy. The Roadmap – updated since its previous introduction in 2008, to reflect the dramatic decline in the Nation’s economic and fiscal condition – draws on Americans’ strengths to restore the Nation’s legacy of leaving the next generation better off.

It achieves three key objectives:

1.  PROVIDING HEALTH AND RETIREMENT SECURITY. The plan ensures universal access to health insurance; and it rescues and strengthens Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security –
allowing them to fulfill their missions and making them permanently solvent.

2.  LIFTING THE DEBT BURDEN. It returns Federal spending growth to sustainable rates, and lifts the huge projected debt burden from the shoulders of future generations.

3.  PROMOTING AMERICAN JOB CREATION AND COMPETITIVENESS. It promotes solid, sustained economic growth and job creation here in America, and puts the United States in a position to lead – not merely survive – in the global marketplace. The plan also modernizes job training programs to meet the effects of globalization.

The GOP actually TOOK the TIME to come up with a plan that the Left under Nutsy Pelosi NEVER BOTHERED TO READ. Instead, Nutsy came up with such bullshit as: "we need to pass this bill to find out what is in it." And that moron actually got REELECTED?

The Challenge and the Opportunity.

1.  THE CHALLENGE. The Federal Government’s current fiscal path is unsustainable: it leads to unprecedented levels of spending, deficits, and debt that will overwhelm the budget, smother the economy, weaken America’s competitiveness in the global 21st century economy, and threaten the survival of the government’s major benefit programs. The President and congressional Majority are hastening America’s march toward this reckoning, adding to trillions of dollars worth of unfunded liabilities, and accelerating the erosion of Americans’ health care and retirement security. Their “progressive” ideology leads to a future in which America’s best century is the past century.

2.  THE OPPORTUNITY. Putting the Nation on a sustainable fiscal course may be one of the greatest domestic challenges in America’s history. But it is also an extraordinary opportunity to restore a national character rooted in individual initiative, entrepreneurship, and opportunity – and to transform the Federal Government to the realities of the 21st century.

Major Plan Components Addressed:

HEALTH CARE.

a.  The plan ensures universal access to affordable health insurance.
b.  Allows Americans to secure affordable healthplans that best suits their needs
c.  Shifts the ownership of health coverage away from the gov't/employers to individuals.
d.  Provides a refundable tax credit ($2,300 for individuals and $5,700 for families) to purchase coverage in any State, and keep it with them if they move or change jobs.
e.  Establishes transparency in health care price and quality data.
f.   Modernizes Medicaid (gives States maximum flexibility to tailor page.)
g.  Medicaid programs to the specific needs of their populations.
h.  Preserves the existing Medicare program for those 55 or older.

SOCIAL SECURITY.  (The Gunny would rather END this lib Ponzi Scam)

a.  Preserves the existing Social Security program for those 55 or older.
b.  Offers workers under 55 the option of investing over one third of their current Social Security taxes into personal retirement accounts, similar to the Thrift Savings Plan available to Federal employees. Includes a property right so they can pass on these assets to their heirs, and a
guarantee that individuals will not lose a dollar they contribute to their accounts, even after inflation.
c.  Makes the program permanently solvent, according to the CBO.

TAX REFORM. (Anyone hear the ProgStats discuss THIS?)

a.  Provides taxpayers a choice of how to pay their income taxes – through existing law, or through a highly simplified income tax system that fits on a postcard with just two rates and virtually no special tax deductions, credits, or exclusions (except the health care tax credit).
b.  Simplifies tax rates to 10 percent on income up to $100,000 for joint filers, and $50,000 for single filers; and 25 percent on taxable income above these amounts. Also includes a generous standard deduction and personal exemption (totaling $39,000 for a family of four).
c.  Eliminates the alternative minimum tax. FINALLY!
d.  Promotes saving by eliminating taxes on interest, capital gains, and dividends; also eliminates the death tax. ABOUT FRIGGING TIME!
e.  Replaces the corporate income tax – currently the second highest in the industrialized world – with a border-adjustable business consumption tax of 8.5 percent. This new rate is roughly half that of the rest of the industrialized world. (and WATCH business FLOCK BACK to the USA!)

JOB TRAINING. The Roadmap helps the Nation’s workforce prepare for success in the global economy by transforming 49 job training programs, scattered across eight agencies, into a flexible, dynamic strategy focused on results, and accompanied by clear measures of transparency and accountability. The plan requires the development of performance measures, and gives each State the option to consolidate funding into one program, if such an approach can be shown to improve outcomes and achieve job training goals.

Kill the Unions, Kill the BS regulations, feed the enviro-nazis to the polar bears, exile the liberals to France or Kenya (Obama's homeland) and watch American Industry TAKE OFF!

Folks, TAKE the time to read the 90 pages, unlike clowns like banking queen Bonnie Fwank, who vote for crap w/o reading it. The tax reform ALONE is simply KICK ASS! Know it, discuss it, and pass it along. Demand that the GOP force it down the Leftist's throat and let THEM try to defend their position of more taxes, more government, and a declining nation!

Get busy!

  1. You are so right Gunny. Everything you said!!
    Conservatives must get hold of this situation, and force it until the left chokes on facts.

    I may have missed it, but we should stop these retirement packages for government officials. They are HUGE, and will ruin us!!

  2. Install the fair tax to kill the irs, then repeal the 16th amendment. Drill here drill now baby, dismantle cafe standards, the epa and any other agency that still believes in globull warmimg. Then within 2 years more or less this nation would see a prosperity growth unlike any ever seen in the history of the world.

    Though the ruling class stand against these moves afraid of losing their monetary power of pork. The reality is that the federal govt would have more funds in the treasury due to the flat tax on services(which by the way is already there at a rate of at least 22% right now)than they have ever seen or dreamed of.

    It's all about control of the people not the economy to the ruling class.

  3. You said "People, WE ARE BANKRUPT and y'all had BETTER start giving a damn unless you WANT to work for the Chinese, at a $1.50 an hour plus benefits " Do you honestly believe that our debt to China will lead to a hostile Chinese takeover. And do you support the current minimum wage laws which keep Americans from working for 1.50 an hour? Or even support raising them?

  4. By the way lGunny,
    What do you think about the Afghan president telling the U.S to reduce the military operations, and stop the attacks in the middle of the night?
    I know I feel like bringing our men home, and giving Karzai his country totally back instead of setting there and let our men get killed for these ingrates!!

  5. Nanna,

    There should be 535 people inside the beltway who should sacrifice FIRST before they ask us to.

  6. R E,

    Exactly right and we have finally awoke to that fact, it is ALL about control.

  7. Historically speaking, we OWNED the debt of Britain after WW1 and what did we do? Basically dictated to them, i.e., cutback their fleet, etc, and we dictated to them during WW2, and afterward. For example, why did Ike lead SHEAF when we did not get into the war until 41?

    I absolutely DO NOT support the minimum wage laws which are just stupid liberal "feel good" laws that do nothing sicne the businesses just raise the price of their products/services to cover the additional expenditures. They also serve to add more FICA taxes to withholding, which also makes libs happy.

    The free market can dictate wages/prices, etc, if the government stayed the hell out of it. It's called competition and it works.

  8. Nanna,

    We should not have ANY TROOPS protecting ANYONE anymore. Screw em. We've been in Europe since 1945 and enough is enough. Dump the UN, Dump NATO, and let the world get a taste of life without Uncle Sam as the policeman.

  9. You dicks do realize that in Obamas budget the national debt was LOWER than the last budget that Bush had submitted. Do your research dicks, before you start making claims that the left is "driving up the national debt"

  11. Anon,

    I had to laugh at your pathetic post.

    1. You hide behind an anon...typical.

    2. You call us "dicks" ergo, you must be a pussy. That jives with you being a lib.

    3. Here is a link that took me about TWO MINUTES to find.

    http://factreal.wordpress.com/2010/02/02/budget-deficit-democrats-vs-republicans-graph-historical-data/

    FACTS:

    1. Obama’s proposed budget will triple the national debt over the next 10 years. (CBO)

    2. Debt held by the public would rise from its 2008 level of $5.803 trillion to $17.126 trillion in 2019, which is 2.95 times larger than the 2008 level.

    3. Obama’s budget will triple the national debt and increase the cost of government to almost 25% of our economy.

    4. July 2009’s deficit was $181 billion. October 2009’s deficit was $176 billion. Republicans’ last annual deficit was $160.7 billion in FY2007.

    5. Republicans worst annual deficit – $412.7 billion in FY2004. In the first 3 months of FY2010 (October-December 2009) alone, Democrats have run up a deficit of about $390 billion. That is $22.7 billion shy of the GOP’s worst annual deficit.

    6. The national debt has increased 30%.

    7. Congress approves the President’s proposed budget and since 2007, Democrats have been the majority in the Senate and in the House. That means that Democrats approved the budgets for Fiscal Year 2008 and Fiscal Year 2009 when the deficit increased exponentially.

    (As of Feb 2010)

  12. "The main problem in America is that everyone wants everyone ELSE to sacrifice."
    Gunny, it is the same old story with a little different twist of, "Who's going to bell the cat."

    I sent you an email about the brilliant state of California. A perfect example of folks wanting US to pay THEIR way. On both emails..

  13. How about we start this off right and repeal the Federal Reserve Act of 1913. The biggest waste of money in the nation. If the treasury can print bonds, it can print dollars at no interest and skip right over the fed.

  14. I don't really like the tax idea. I make about 75K per year between my current job and my retired military pay. My wife died four months ago, so now all of a sudden 1/3 of my income would be subject to 15% more tax. Also, corporations don't pay taxes, they just pass them on to the consumer as a cost of doing business. It's still a progressive income tax, and the only thing progressive about a progressive income tax is how it gets worse...progressively.
    Flat tax, one rate for all with no deductions, I could get behind. Fair Tax is an idea I like a lot as well. Either way, something has to be done.
