Why Not Spread The Wealth Around?
by Alberta Parish
At a rally this past week for Republican presidential hopeful John McCain, the Senator attacked remarks that were made by Barack Obama in which he had stated to “Joe the Plumber” that he wants to spread the wealth around. Senator Obama had stated, “I think when you spread the wealth around, it's good for everybody.” Senator Obama also told Joe the Plumber, “If you’ve got a plumbing business, you’re gonna be better off if you’ve got a whole bunch of customers who can afford to hire you, and right now everybody’s so pinched that business is bad for everybody.” Senator McCain’s response to these comments at a rally in Miami, Florida this week was, “When politicians talk about taking your money and spreading it around, you'd better hold onto your wallet.”
This is exactly the kind of attitude from a Republican White House Administration that Americans have endured for the past eight years. This is exactly why America is in the economic crisis it is currently in now. Because of the Republicans’ unwillingness to “spread the wealth around” and their bold willingness to continue robbing “Main Street”, which clearly does not include independent business owners that make above $250,000 a year (because they get all the tax breaks), America will continue to suffer in a recession that will eventually lead to a complete collapse of our monetary system. If Congress and the Senate do not implement fundamental and workable changes to the economic policies, which got Wall Street into the economic crisis that it’s currently in, then we can kiss the U.S. dollar goodbye!
Because wealthy people in this country have been getting all the tax breaks for decades now, this is one reason why “Main Street” is in the economic shape that it’s currently in and has been for the past eight years under the Bush Administration. I need the tax breaks, not wealthy business owners, rich celebrities, Wall Street executives and oil tycoons! John McCain’s statement about holding onto your wallet when politicians talk about taking your money and spreading it around is clearly an indication that he plans to continue the economic policies of George W. Bush, Jr. And if so, independent business owners, corporate business owners, the housing industry, etc. will probably be worse off economically four years from today. Because “Main Street” will not be able to afford goods and services, business owners, car dealerships and mortgage companies will lose more money and more business. Just look at what happened to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in September of 2008.
The federal government—over night—seized control of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, this nation’s biggest mortgage giants. AIG [American International Group] is also now under U.S. government control. The housing industry sector, which makes up a huge part of our economy, is now in the control of the U.S. government. Congratulations, America! The federal government is now the biggest mortgage giant this nation’s ever had! And this is only the beginning.
Don’t think that the U.S. government takeover of the housing market was not previously calculated. If a government wants to implement a totalitarian system, all it has to do is takeover the entire banking system and housing market, takeover all forms of media, get rid of political enemies and average citizens (this includes religious leaders) who pose a serious threat to the new social order, unite church and religion, change the Constitutional Laws of the country, create the Department of Homeland Security, create a complete collapse of the nation’s monetary system, and deploy military troops to patrol the Homeland, which, as of October 1, 2008, the 3rd Infantry Army Division has been conducting, according to an article I read at ArmyTimes.com written by Staff Writer, Gina Cavallaro. According to the Army Times September 30, 2008 article entitled Brigade Homeland Tours Start Oct. 1, the 3rd Infantry Division’s job is to help suppress public unrest and to maintain control over hostile crowds in the event of a catastrophic disaster of any kind. The Army Times article indicates that the 3rd Infantry Division was brought back from Iraq, and trained on how to handle and conduct various situations in regard to maintaining national security in the Homeland, and that it has the complete authority to use non-deadly weapons in quelling riots, dealing with unruly citizens, etc.
It is one thing for police officers to suppress crowd rioting, but it’s another when military troops carrying AKA-47s are shouting at you, tasering you, or ordering you to get out of your car at gunpoint if they suspect you of anything.
