Subtopic #1: The Left's Implementation of the Polity to Destroy the American Dream

Recently, Democratic Party lawmakers in Washington have, to the surprise of no one in opposition of their policies, displayed their pride and arrogance in how they opt to govern their idea of a proletarian collective of Americans' lives, as we are to them the peasants to whom they feed a few crumbs of bread in return for a few votes and the abdication of our sovereignty. The manner in which these lawmakers chose to reveal their intentions so smugly, however, is shocking, as they actually are happy that Obamacare will be resulting in the losses of 2.5 million jobs by 2014 according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO). While hearkening upon my memories as a teenager of the Clinton presidency's initiatives to create new jobs after the GOP sweep of Congress in 1994 with Newt Gingrich's "Contract with America" coalition, there again lies the reason Clinton's economic policies worked and why he alone is credited for the economic prosperity: Newt Gingrich forced tax reforms, welfare-to-work initiatives, and restrictions on trade and labor unions. Gingrich also was responsible for the eventual balanced budget and achievement of the first budget surplus since the presidency of Andrew Jackson during the 1832 fiscal year. Unlike the Gingrich "Contract with America" cast 20 years ago, there is no sizable opposition today in 2014 to President Obama despite a GOP-controlled House of Representatives other than the support from the party establishment for the majority of his policies true conservative-libertarians as myself know to be called "RINOs" who are categorized within the right-wing pantheon as neoconservatives and since I want to emphasize and reemphasize repetitively, I will continue to type that noun-adjective in bold and italics. The major forces within this neoconservative coalition of GOP lawmakers are, in the Senate: John McCain, who was the GOP nominee for president in 2008 and barely differed in terms of his championed policies aside from advocating an extremely aggressive military and foreign policy agenda to police the world more so than Obama; Lindsay Graham of South Carolina, who rides McCain's coattails and mimics every word from the Arizona senator as if he were a parakeet; and the GOP Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, whose face to me looks as if he swallowed a spoiled petrified turd every time that mug is plastered across the Internet news sites and he is quoted about his intention to destroy the Tea Party political advocacy organization which now is the greatest source of newly-elected public servants and lawmakers in the nation for the GOP. In the House, though, the situation is all the more treacherous as the three highest-ranked congressmen in the lower chamber - House Speaker John Boehner, the crybaby; House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, the Speaker-in-waiting should the GOP miraculously maintain the House in November; and House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, the 2012 nominee for vice president who is the de facto last word on the multiple debt-ceiling increases, and who is so bad at debating and remaining composed and yet firm in his positions that he lost badly in the debate to that idiot Vice President Joe Biden. To look at Biden's face during the debate was excruciating; it was not as if he had a clear intellectual side to him because he appeared during that televised program just as he always has: as the type who consumed paint chips as a child; but Ryan just is a terrible extemporaneous speaker and debater and lacks the capacity to "think on his feet." These three individuals along with those in the Senate previously mentioned, are who have destroyed the GOP's capacity to completely dominate the political landscape and perhaps usher into existence a Seventh Party System due to Obama's planned destruction of the American way of life that has existed since the first Anglo-American settlements took hold more than 400 years ago. Instead, the Democrats, who as I have said many times in previous entries are the greatest democratically-politicians the world has ever known, have managed to spin even the recent bevy of scandals in their favor simply by denying their existence or hushing their opposition. Hillary Clinton currently is in the lead if she ran for the presidency against Sarah Palin in her home state Alaska by a margin of 44% to 43%.

In another post in the coming days and weeks, I will disseminate the concept(s) behind the difference between Reagan conservatism to that of neoconservative.

I speak about the incompetence of the GOP opposition which outranks the growing number of textbook conservative candidates from the Tea Party winning elections, and I will segue into the topic of the latter later. The lack, however, of the neoconservative RINO faction of the GOP's opposition and rather implementing their platforms to capitulation, to appease, and to acquiesce to nearly every demand and not truly negotiate with the Democrats and especially President Obama, may result in few gains in the 2014 midterm elections and quite possibility losing the House and a major gain for the Democrats of a super majority in the Senate. Should these political catastrophes occur, the American people might as well suit up in fatigue clothing and be carted by the military to the countrysides of the nation in order to be coerced into gulags while donned in shackles, performing hard labor. The systematic destruction of the private sector of the economy was more subtle between 2009 and 2012, but now that Obama no longer has to be concerned with running for reelection, he now chooses to run roughshod across the Constitution and abrogate all rules of law which stifle his capacity to dictate his terms of our livelihoods and existence to us, not govern according to popular consent. The neoconservative GOP establishment, I emphasize again, the neoconservative RINO faction, is appeasing Obama and even working in concert with the president by agreeing to amnesty, raising the debt ceiling higher at every summoning from the Oval Office, choosing to not oppose tax hikes on the middle class and the working poor while providing tax breaks for wealthy entrepreneurs and entertainment celebrities who are loyal donors to the Democratic Party and Obama's war chests, etc. These failures as the party of the opposition to serve as a firewall to either stifle the effort of, or better still to prevent, the liberal policymakers from enacting their polity in absolutist manners have let to the now-greatly accelerated destruction of the economy where more than 90 million Americans are either listed as unemployed or have simply exited the labor force due to their inability to find a job that will sustain them a living wage more than a Democratic-sanction welfare subsidy.

In 13 states, it is cheaper to remain unemployed and draw a welfare check for $15 per hour rather than work a minimum wage job, which the total amounts to $7.25 per hour in accordance Fair Labor Standards Act passed in 2009. The following map presents the figures of each state from 2013's records:

Per the chart above, one may notice that those states colored pink or orchid traditionally are red states - those with lesser regulated economic and social welfare policies, and my home state of Tennessee is one of those - are those which offer the lowest welfare benefits nationwide. The total for Tennessee, for instance, is $12.120 and $5.83. Hawaii takes home the big coconut at 60,590 in all, which remains stationary due to it being a tax-free source of income, since it is subsidized. 

Those states within the chart which are darker colored are comprised mostly of blue states, though certainly Kansas traditionally votes Republican, as do Montana and Wyoming during Presidential Election years. As a generalization, however, the states whose figures for average welfare distribution are higher traditionally vote Democrats into public office since the average civilian has the option to declare themselves as unemployed or out of the workforce and earn a larger income than simply choosing to work a minimum wage job. The issue is problematic as the Obama administration and the Democratic-controlled Congress in 2009 disingenuously, though again not surprising to those in opposition to their opting to propagate the manifestation of the American socialist state, increase minimum wage at the federal level to one total while the Democratic National Committee in general was capable of convincing at least the ones with strong representations in states with large urban populations and poor inner city districts traditionally voting Democratic to substantially hike the total average tax-free welfare income to what you see above. Disingenuous is beyond the summation of the word when describing the duplicitous intent and culturally-debilitating results manifested and what the nation is about to experience beginning and growing to pandemic economic proportions.

For more specifics on the information and figures provided, which comprised mostly of a generalized summarizing of a pair of articles, you may access the following media outlets by clicking on the next two hyperlinks: Forbes and the study by Michael D. Tanner and Charles Hughes study on the subject in an article dated August 19, 2013 within the The Cato Institute.

___________________

As opposed to simply accusing the neoconservative RINO coalition serving due to seniority as the governing neoconservative establishment of the GOP of being cowardly, I am going on record by describing in very clear and brutal faux hyperbole this: they are socialist wolves wearing conservative sheep attire. We all know what the Prime Minister of Great Britain in 1938 Neville Chamberlain, the leader of the Labour Party (left-wing socialist party of the United Kingdom), stated upon signing the Munich Agreement with Adolf Hitler as he walked off the plane as he had returned to London: "There is peace in our time" All he had done, however, was appease Hitler by granting him his acquisitions of Austria and Czechoslovakia (aka. Sudetenland) via invasion so long as he agreed to not invade Poland, and how well that worked! Hitler invaded Poland and conquered it in four weeks in 1939, and Britain and France had no choice but to honor the terms of the agreement and declare war on Germany. The choice to appease cost the Labour Government of Chamberlain the parliamentary general elections in 1940, and the Conservative Party took the House of Commons, with Winston Churchill ascending to the role as prime minister, to the good fortune of the world.

Subtopic #2: The Democrats Admit Their Plans to Destroy the Labor Force Through Their Manifesting a Utopian Society For Citizens to "Pursue Their Dreams"

To the point of why many of the far-left Democrats are publicly ecstatic about the report that the CBO has projected the losses of 2.5 million jobs over the next ten years, there are two reasons, one of which is the insidiously devious and true reason, and the other which they chose to divulge publicly in order to appease those who believe every told to them by the Left in government and the world of entertainment so long as they receive their welfare checks.

The first reason is the one in which I will provide to you and will include the actual article from Forbes which emanated straight from the jackasses' mouths:

White House: It's A Good Thing That Obamacare Will

Drive 2.5 Million Americans Out Of The Workforce

Avik Roy, Forbes Staff

Yesterday, Washington’s official non-partisan bean-counter, the Congressional Budget Office, dropped a bomb. By 2024, says the CBO, Obamacare will reduce the size of the U.S. labor force by 2.5 million full-time-equivalent workers. That’s roughly triple what the CBO had estimated three years ago. Such a sizeable decline in the labor force will have substantial detrimental effects on the U.S. economic and fiscal picture. But the CBO wasn’t responsible for the most amazing thing that happened yesterday. That title belongs to the Obama White House, where Press Secretary Jay Carney claimed that 2.5 million Americans leaving the workforce was a good thing, because they would no longer be “trapped in a job.”

Carney: Americans should stop working ‘to pursue their dreams’

After the CBO review came out, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney published a statement in which he declared, remarkably, that it’s a good thing that millions of Americans may drop out of the work force:

Over the longer run, CBO finds that because of this law, individuals will be empowered to make choices about their own lives and livelihoods, like retiring on time rather than working into their elderly years or choosing to spend more time with their families. At the beginning of this year, we noted that as part of this new day in health care, Americans would no longer be trapped in a job just to provide coverage for their families, and would have the opportunity to pursue their dreams.

Bored with your job? No worries—now you can quit, thanks to the generosity of other taxpayers. Want to retire early? No worries—now you can, thanks to the generosity of other taxpayers, and also thanks to the higher premiums that young people will be forced to pay on your behalf. The White House’s apparently sincere belief—echoed by progressive pundits at MSNBC, The New Republic, and the L.A. Times—is that it’s a good thing for fewer Americans to be economically self-sufficient. 

If you’re one of the chumps out there who still toils away at a challenging job, and still pays taxes so that others can “pursue their dreams,” you have a right to resent the White House’s argument. And the “dream-pursuers” themselves should become aware of all the research suggesting that earned success, through hard work, is the most reliable path to true happiness.

Participation in the labor force was already declining, thanks to the poor economy and the retirement of the Baby Boomers. Obamacare, it appears, will accelerate that process, forcing fewer and fewer taxpayers to support a greater number of government beneficiaries.

No universal-coverage plan is immune from this problem

I should issue two caveats before I go on: any health-reform plan that seeks to offer coverage to the uninsured will have this type of effect on the labor market. As Josh Barro notes, the new Republican plan to replace Obamacare offered by Senators Tom Coburn (Okla.), Richard Burr (N.C.), and Orrin Hatch (Utah) also has a means-tested subsidy to help the poor buy health insurance.

In addition, it is genuinely a good thing for us to move to a system where people control their own health dollars and their own health coverage, and aren’t stuck at a job because they’re afraid of losing the coverage they have. But giving people the opportunity to switch jobs is quite a different goal from encouraging them to dropout of the work force altogether.

The negative effect of Obamacare on the labor market is far worse than any Republican alternative would be, because the ACA dramatically expands Medicaid, and because the law heavily subsidizes health insurance for those nearing retirement. In addition, Obamacare depresses economic growth through a $1 trillion tax increase, and increases the cost of hiring new workers, because of its employer mandate requiring most businesses to offer health coverage to every worker.

The CBO report harbors more bad news

The new CBO report contained a lot of other interesting information. CBO projects that economic growth will be more sluggish than they had previously projected.  From 2018 to 2023, nominal GDP growth will average 4.2 percent, compared to the CBO’s previous estimate of 4.4 percent. Over the same period, unemployment will average 5.6 percent, higher than the previous estimate of 5.4 percent.

Because of this slower economic growth, CBO projects that from 2014 to 2023, the federal government will receive $1.4 trillion less in tax revenue than it had projected last year. As a result, “CBO now estimates that the cumulative deficit for the 2014-2023 period…would be about $1.0 trillion greater than it projected in May [2013].”

Think about that for a second. Obamacare increased taxes by $1 trillion over ten years. Democrats have passed several other tax hikes under President Obama. And yet all of that planned new tax revenue has been offset by the poor economic growth that the President’s tax hikes, in part, have engendered.

Some on the right complain that Obamacare is a scheme for wealth redistribution. In truth, Obamacare is a scheme for wealth destruction.

Conclusion: November 4, 2014 - A New Time for Choosing 

(This is the way the future will look due to Barack Obama. The President's Dogs will live higher qualities of lives than the general population. To paraphrase Marie Antoinette's alleged [mis]quote, we can just be told to eat cake.)

If by 2024 the U.S. workforce is to be decreased substantially by an approximation of 2.5 million workers due to Obamacare's mandate requiring employers to pay employee premiums beyond their capacities to do so, who will pay for those Americans relegated to receiving social welfare benefits? It will not be the wealthy owners of America's corporations within the private sector due to their already having lost their paid labor source and likely the actual corporation(s) itself, nor will the proprietary entrepreneurs of small private businesses since those are already on the brink of extinction due to the presence of retail conglomerations as Walmart/Sam's Club, CostCo, Target, et. al. In theory, only government sector positions will be available, and yet they will be jobs occupied by people who will be receiving a paycheck by a veritably phantom source. Who will pay their wages then? What will come of the industrial manufacturing trade labor workers and the unions the Democrats so champion and mediate labor disputes always in favor of the corrupt labor bosses, often with ties with organized crime?

George Santayana once stated: "Those whose who fail to learn their history are condemned to repeat it." And when a people are willing to elect a oligarchy of wealthy elites to form public policies predicated upon taking from those who labor for their daily bread in order to subsidize those who would not, there is no real manifestation of income equity other than the Left's perspective that so long as the wealthy and middle classes are less economically and financially affluent, they would rather that the poor were poorer. Those who oppose such policies will be met by the Left in power and the majority of the media with scorn, derision, and ostracism with the accusations of being wanton morally and consumed by greed and avarice. The redistribution of wealth neither narrows the income inequities nor manifests great economic viability or wealth for any; it only begets the economic malaise and a decline of the collective morale of a nation. Sadly, the collection of those claiming to comprise of the opposition sum do not account for the neoconservatives willing to appease President Obama and the Democrats in Congress, and therefore there is no opposition.

In the end, all that will occur at the directive of President Obama, who will be sitting back with a Marlboro in his left hand and his dogs in their chairs eating their dinners on silver plates, will be that not one person in America other than the ruling oligarchs will have any compilation of collected wealth since what little the people earn will be taxed into the federal government under the guise that they are leveling the playing field and caring for them "while [we] achieve [our] dreams and pursue [our] passions"... so long as it is completely regulated at the federal government's totalitarian discretion. 

(Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher, above, presided over the one and true "era of good feelings" during the past century. They toppled together the Soviet Union and ushered in a new world order predicated upon greater choice in freedom rather than totalitarian absolutism. We could sure use individuals such as they again to end Obama's current status of enforced authoritarianism transforming into Marxist-Leninist totalitarianism.)

If only America had such outstanding leaders as Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher living and serving as the catalysts for allowing we, the people, to choose our own destinies....

My Response to a Lady Named Alice Who Apparently Resides in Wonderland Where All the Young Girls Love Her According to Elton John

(Elton John always has been one hell of a musician. There is no doubt in my mind that this has to be the greatest song every written, recorded, and performed about a girl named Alice.)

Yet Another Response to a Leftist Accusing the GOP and Tea Party of All of the Democrats' Liberal Failures Despite the White House and the U.S. Senate Being Occupied by Democrats While Two of the "Conservatives" Within the U.S. Supreme Court are Moderates

As with the previous article and some of the more recent ones I have posted, this is another response I had to a woman on Facebook named Alice. You can read below her accusations against the GOP and the Tea Party and how ridiculous they are due to their being exactly the types of policies Democrats champion. Furthermore, she claims that the U.S. Supreme Court has been guilty of judicial activism due to their stifling civil rights and liberties, plus the rights to practicing religion as one sees fit. My response was sharp, to the point, but not so harsh that I was condescending to her as I was the previous man named Dallas. 

Let us see if Alice will receive any love after her wanton logic and ignorance of the American system of politics and polity:

***

Alice Stated:

Sickening is right. It's the GOP doing it... Tea Party... just like y'all to turn things around. So-called Patriots... and to say Billy Graham said this is an all out lie!!! Why do y'all lie so much!!! Y'all ought to be ashamed of yourselves... Supreme Court which is a conservative court is destroying civil and religious liberties... You lie... you lie... you lie!!!

My Response:

Alice, whenever Obama suffers from a night's worth of indigestion and gastrointestinal distress, it is the GOP's fault. Just like how the GOP is divided down the middle and cannot arrive at a common accord on policy, or how Sen. Harry Reid (D - NV) managed to gain the "nuclear option" he so desperately wanted in order to completely cripple the GOP presence within the Senate's capacity to stop any bill from passing with so little as a 51-49 margin when there used to be a required total of 60 preliminary votes to advance a proposed bill for the final vote.

You are using the same fallacy to grasp at straws, Alice. First, the U.S. Supreme Court has a 5-4 final tally with regards to conservative appointees having an advantage. But what you failed to mention is how Associate Justice Anthony Kennedy ruled in favor of rescinding the Proposition 8 referendum voted on by California's citizens proclaiming marriage to be defined as a union between one man and one woman; Roberts also was the dissenting vote on the issue of the constitutionality of Obamacare, and it is widely believed and reported that he was intimidated and coerced by the Obama administration into ruling in the president's favor. Roberts and Kennedy are part of the five conservatives on the panel of nine justices, neither one considered to be truly conservative but moderates instead. And furthermore, when the U.S. Supreme Court in 1973 under the liberal Chief Justice Warren Berger decided to judicially-legislate the legal institutional slaughtering, infanticide under a new heading, and the contribution without due process of law with the Roe v. Wade decision to propagate the genocide of what the current count now is 50 million unborn babies aborted since World War II and 1.5 billion overall, that to me entails that a liberal-packed court denied the right of a human being by dent of his or her very conception the life, liberty, and happiness (or as Locke said, "property") to a legally-guaranteed life, is to me the ultimate trampling upon the civil liberties and God-given right as He begets to all to be allowed to live.

It is so amusing to encounter a left-wing socialist declaring conservatives attempt to deny the American people in general of their civil rights, civil liberties, but most entertaining of all the right to religion when the Obama administration is attempting to stifle through federal agencies Christian and Jewish groups who lean conservative in defiance of his policies while Fmr. Sec. of State Hillary Clinton orders troops to stand down in Benghazi to al-Qaeda militants and defiantly attacks the House Ways and Means Committee Committee, "What difference does it make?" despite coldly and callously costing four innocents lives including the U.S. Ambassador to Libya, or when Obama orders John Kerry to arrange for a massive arms shipment to be airlifted to the Syrian rebels while attempting to destroy the Second Amendment domestically, and finally alienating the Netenyahu Government of Israel who warned the Obama administration that to appease the Iranians in allowing to embark upon their nuclear ambitions while not stipulating that under no circumstances are any nuclear weapons to be manufactured has turned into such a nightmare that now the Iranians have deployed their naval vessels, which have now entered our maritime waters threatening to attack U.S. naval ships.

All of those aspects about the Manchurian candidate you voted into office Alice who ensures that we each are free? That is only under the Rousseau concept of forcing those who would not adhere to the social contract for which he or she tacitly agreed upon due to Obama's earning a simple majority of the votes in 2012 and are in dissent of his failed policies "to be forced to be free." I challenge you to very carefully reconsider your position on the matters upon which you opined.

The Son of Liberty Does Dallas... Well, Not in That Manner, But I Did Put Him in His Place in My Response!

(Above: The attitude of President Obama is such that if one disagrees with his policies, he or she is ostracized as a racist.)

My Response with One Man Named Dallas J., Who Claimed that Obama's Phrase in the Photograph Above was Taken Out of Context During a Conversation at Monticello with French President Francois Hollande

There is very little I can truly add to describe my response to the member of the American Left below. They are always attempting to justify the president's actions regardless of how disingenuous or borderline extralegal they may be. Below is that response, which I doubt Dallas responded since on Facebook, I managed to not tag his name in my post to where there was a link in which he would have been notified of my post in response to his. 

Regardless, I will allow you to enjoy the show!

Dallas J. Stated:

You guys are the biggest jokes on Facebook! For what is supposed to be a legitimate think tank, you certainly don't do any thinking!

Mr. Obama made the tongue-in-cheek remark as he toured Monticello, the Charlottesville, Va., estate of Thomas Jefferson, with French President Francois Hollande. The visit is part of Mr. Hollande’s three-day stay in the U.S. this week.

The president delighted in his ability to “break the protocol” and view the Monticello grounds from a private terrace.

“That’s the good thing as a president. I can do whatever I want,” Mr. Obama said.

My Reply to Dallas J:

Dallas J, I suppose you forget the popular cliche "Birds of a feather flock together"? Perhaps you did not take into consideration that President Francois Hollande is a member of the French Socialist Party and is the first sitting French president since perhaps Charles De Gaulle to align himself either closely or loosely with the U.S. with regards to both trade and foreign policy. It is France which remains currently the sole representative nation within the European Union yet to be alienated by the Obama administration's spy tapping from the taxpayers' cache of federal national security or tax collection agencies. Most importantly, the Obama administration highly encouraged President Hollande to dissolve the economic policy of austerity and return to what previous French governments have employed economically for generations since Georges Clemenceau: a socialist government with the state controlling the vast majority of corporate operations if not nationalizing these businesses entirely. Furthermore, the wealthiest of the French people are being taxed completely beyond their capacities to pay, with those who are lucky paying income tax rates of 75% while others are pulling a true Marxist level of income taxation levied by returning their entire paychecks to Hollande's government as they are taxed 100%!

No Dallas, the person to accuse of being a joke when it involves awareness of world politics and foreign policy is none other than yourself. Since the Left is so set against military conflict despite an entire century's track record of initiating the four largest wars or military operations which resulted in more 600,000 American lives, the alliance now between Obama and Hollande strategically in terms of foreign policy and now a military alliance while the former has virtually alienated the Cameron Government in the United Kingdom to the point that Cameron wisely managed to attain a quorum in Parliament prohibiting British military engagement in the Syrian civil war as well as Iran and the Arab Spring phenomena. Coupled this with the two far-leftist government's preparing to perhaps bilaterally engage in combat akin to what Democrats and all other nations in the European Union and the United Nations cried foul when Bush and the Blair Government in Britain invaded, overthrew Saddam Hussein, and then occupied for nine years amid bloody combat in Iraq after pre-Bush presidency intelligence during the Clinton years which claimed that without a shadow of doubt there were weapons of mass destruction (WMD's) present under the Hussein regime, and the hypocrisy and continuity of the incessant flow of Obama's lies is both a complete and, in the words of the world's leading ecological and climatological expert who also was the inventor of the Internet, Al Gore, "an inconvenient truth" for those on the Left to swallow.
