In a time of national crises. 9,000 earmarks. 40% by Republicans. We citizens watch as our elected officials line up to rape the thrashing body of America. When do we settle this outrage the old fashioned way?

Has anyone else noticed that since Rick Santelli’s famous rant, that alot of these television hacks are spouting anti-Obama rants?

Maybe its just me, but I think they noticed the following the Santelli generated and everyone is eyeballing their ratings.

Also. I don’t want to have another meaningless debate about slavery. But can we agree that slavery happened? And so…we know what it actually looks like correct? I find it incredibly offensive when people declare that being taxed at a rate that coincides with significant personal income or property ownership (not possible for slaves) is NOT slavery. It may be unfair, you could even say it violates some civil right to income. But it diminishes the harsh realities of slavery to suggest that taxation = slavery. But I don’t blame you as our founding fathers often called what the British did to them as “slavery” even as they held people in actual bondage (I feel like that should be the example used in the dictionary when defining slavery). Shouldn’t we, as (hopefully) more enlightened on the immorality of slavery than they were be able to distinguish between a legit grievance against taxation and calling it slavery?

I know that this post is very old but I’ve been gone and didn’t read it before.

First, debt is slavery. In fact in ancient Russia when someone took out bankruptcy they actually sold themselves and their family members into slavery. American slavery is not the only form of slavery in the world. But we cannot allow us not to call debt what it is!!!!!

When you buy something on credit you agree to devote some labor to pay the bill. Money is the cost of labor. You are not free to not pay the bill. That is how credit works you have agreed to pay the bill plus interest, with your labor, but we do that according to our own will and choice.

However, when our government borrows money from China. Our government agrees that the PEOPLE of the United States (not the government) will spend much of our labor to pay the bill plus the interest. Until that bill is paid THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES (not the government) are at the mercy of China. In the same way those ancient Russian slaves became slaves we all become slaves.

Barack Obama is selling us all into slavery to China so that he can have a legacy. Our labor will pay for him to put logos all over stuff so that he will be a big man in history.
