How Can America Win The War On Prosperity?
Liberals are waging a war on taxpayers and big change in Washington is needed to save us from bankruptcy!
As America continues on it’s fast track to bankruptcy and complete change in the way taxpaying citizens live their lives, it is time to take a stand and impose our will on politicians to do the right things to get us back to a nation of workers and away from this big government entitlement mentality.
It is time for all Americans to get involved and spread the word!
If you are one of the few Americans actually paying attention to what is happening to our once great nation, it is time to be proactive. Sitting on the sidelines and bitching about the price of gas or the housing crisis is not going to move us forward.
Get off the sidelines and get in the game before it’s too late!
It’s time to get your friends and family to vote. It’s time to get in the faces of these uninformed liberals and dispute their propaganda. Time is running out and if you care about the future of your children and grandchildren you better get off your ass!
Here are my suggestions to get us started. Please feel free to add your suggestions and comments!
1. Cut spending in Washington. The country’s problems are not because people are not paying enough taxes. The problem is all the waste and fraud in our federal government. Sure, millions of unnecessary government workers may get laid off, but if their job is paid for by taxpayers and is not productive, get rid of it! How long would your small business last if you hired people that you did not need or were performing duplicate tasks?
2. Install a Flat tax on all Americans! Stop punishing prosperity and make all Americans pay the same rate. If the flat tax is set at 10%, a family earning $35,000 will pay $3,500 and a family earning $400,000 will pay $40,000. But, we must also get rid of ALL tax loopholes. This will force the very wealthy who do not pay taxes to pay their fair share. The fact is, a progressive tax code punishes success. Why should a hard working person striving to earn more be punished every time he gets a raise?
3. Become energy independent by tapping into our vast oil reserves. Sorry, all you pie in the sky liberals, but this country runs on oil! Everything we buy, make, and drive depends on oil. When we are held hostage by third world nations for our oil supply everyone suffers. Isn’t it sad that communist countries like Cuba and China are drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico while we do not? Isn’t it sad that we have huge oil resources in the ground in one of the most barren wastelands in America (ANWAR)? We have huge reserves of shale oil untouched. I am all in favor of moving forward with alternative energy sources but get real – we are still decades away from real solutions. In the meantime, get the price of gas back down to a reasonable level and watch food prices, transportation costs and everything else go down. I for one do not wish to put my two-year-old and four-year-old in the back seat of a Prius because liberals don’t like my SUV. By the way, Obama’s taxpayer paid for Limo gets 8 miles to the gallon. How’s that for setting an example?
4. Eliminate Public Sector Unions. This is so immoral it is silly! The union leaders negotiate with politicians that are supposed to act on the behalf of taxpayers. They cut sweetheart deals with unions and in return receive millions of dollars in campaign donations. So who is watching out for the people that end up paying for these lopsided pensions and pay plans? No one! Let’s get back to a merit system that rewards good work and allows government employees to contribute to their pension the same way we have to. Even big Government liberal FDR saw the flaws in allowing public workers to unionize. Talk about a conflict of interest!
5. Term limits for all politicians. This is so important if we want to get anything accomplished. Career politicians funded by lobbyists, unions, and corporations often forget what they were elected to do. By flushing the cockroaches out of Washington with term limits they will have less incentive to cut deals with special interest groups. The fact is, many politicians go to Washington with the best of intentions and are corrupted over time. Come in, do your time, and move over for someone else!
6. Lower corporate taxes, decrease unreasonable regulations, and eliminate corporate tax loop holes. We now are a nation of non-producers. We used to build everything and now we build very little. Why? There are many reasons, but the big one is that we are one of the highest corporate tax countries in the world with too many unnecessary regulations. Remember, a corporation is not a person, it cannot be greedy like liberals always say. A corporation is made up of tax paying employees, management, and shareholders. When an over regulating, over taxing government enters the picture and sets up sweet loopholes so left leaning Companies like Google and GE can avoid taxes, it kills shareholder confidence and forces management to lay off employees and in many cases move their company to places like China. It is time to bring back our manufacturing base and put people back to work! High tariffs on China, lower taxes on corporations that bring back jobs, and above all, a moral and reasonable regulation system.
7. Eliminate the Department of Education. This goes back to eliminating public unions. Our schools are no longer run by parents and teachers. They are run by union leaders that could care less about educating our kids. We pay the highest cost per student in the world yet lag way behind most countries. We need to get rid of bad teachers that are protected by unions, reward good teachers and get back to teaching reading, writing, Math, Science, and history. Enough of this multicultural crap and all this pushing kids along so as not to damage their delicate self esteem. Our kids aren’t getting dumber, they’re getting dumbed down by a failed education system run by unions and bureaucrats. Unless we want generations of brainwashed poorly educated kids, we better take a stand now!
8. And finally! Secure the border! The U.S. – Mexican border is no longer controlled by the U.S. It is now controlled by drug cartels and human smugglers. While our politicians are wasting billions trying to help people 5,000 miles away, people are dying on our border. Let’s pull our troops out of the middle east and start taking care of our own country. We won’t need to be in the Middle East if we take care of point 3.
Now, the million dollar question. How can we get some of these important issues resolved?
As long as we vote for a party instead of the candidate we will never get significant change. First of all, the democratic party has been taken over by big government liberals. All you Reagan and JFK Democrats need to wake up and look around. As long as you vote democrat because that is what you always did you will be part of the problem.
Flush out the establishment Republicans!
Republicans, your party has been taken over by big government moderates. These are spineless politicians that are more interested in getting good press from the main stream media than doing what is best for the country. We need to get rid of these guys now!
Who can save this country? We can if we wake up and push hard for change. It will be a tough fight and the corrupt and often violent unions will fight us tooth and nail. You see they don’t care if America goes bankrupt as long as they get their piece of the pie.
The Tea Party (I am not a member) is a group of concerned Americans that woke up and smelled the stink coming out of Washington. This is a group of Americans, Democrats, Independents, and Republicans that see the future and understand it is not looking good.
I know, you think Tea Party only supports republicans. No, they only support politicians that are willing to stand up and fight for the salvation of this country. If the politicians choose the republican ticket who cares? In fact, maybe we can flush all the corrupt republicans out with the next election. The liberals aren’t going anywhere.
The United States is going bankrupt. We can longer sustain the socialist policies and entitlement spending that has gone on for decades. The chickens have come home to roost and unless you want our kids and grandkids to grow up in a very different country than we knew, we better take a stand now!

Please add any suggestions or comments and let’s get the debate going. A note to hateful liberals – please save the vitriol. If you do not have anything constructive to say, and resort to name calling and profanity, you will be neutered (I mean censured).
Educate and inform the whole mass of the people…
They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.
