What we need most in America is a political
enema.
The
grand challenge of our times is we as citizens must continue to fight against
the crushing onslaught of government growth and stupidity while they degrade
our rights and our national treasury…
The
International Monetary Fund has downgraded its global economic outlook. Again…
The IMF says worldwide GDP in 2015 will clock in at 3.1%. That’s
down from a forecast of 3.3% in July and 3.5% in April.
Does
anyone still believe Obama?
Ultimately, who becomes America’s next Grand Pooh-Bah is rather
pointless — because whoever it is will
still be bad for me and you, and both of our pocketbooks… and certainly not so
good for the dollar or the Bill of Rights or your privacy or your standard of
living. Career politicians and gutless leaders won’t stop allowing the welfare
sucking leeches in from across the border, they won’t stop terrorism but you’ll
still pay to have your person violated by the TSA…
Politicians will get their annual raise and other perks but soldiers
won’t, senior citizens won’t see a raise in their Social Security allotments
and our tax system will remain a feudal batch of bullshit no matter who gets
into office!
The political elite , especially the likes of Mrs. Clinton, scramble
and fight to grab whichever political job they can in order to gratify their
ego and to line their bank account….too many of them have always suckled at the
public teat and have never served a day in the military, never been responsible
for a payroll. Instead, these
incompetents ruin the lives of vast swaths of Americans.
- Two months ago, the Trans-Pacific
Partnership, a fantastically horrible trade deal covering a huge
swath of the globe, was being exposed for the fascist corporate
takeover program it is. Today, as in literally today, October 5th, it has
been "finalized" by all 12 Pacific Rim nations, including the
US, and is on its way to being ratified.
- Two months ago, stock market
volatility was something best remembered as a relic of the prolonged
2008-2009 crash. Today, the Dow Jones is capable of dropping 1,100 points
in a single day, and many fear that markets could actually retrace most or
all of the gains of the past half decade.
As anthropologist Paul Friedrich puts it: “The highest praise that one
can give a man is that he is capable of doing harm but chooses not to.”
Too bad bureaucrats and politicians never seem to heed such sage
advice!
As I say every year…we don’t
need another election, we need another revolution!

further by going to this link…It’s easy to feel hopeless.
But it does NOT have to be that way. You CAN be prepared. You can not only
survive, but prosper.

Frugal
Home Winterization
If you live in regions where it becomes extremely cool in the winter, I am sure that you can feel the changes in the air and sense what is about to come. Winter weather is just around the corner and it is time to prepare your home for the cold weather. For a frugal person, the important thing is figuring out how to prepare your home for the cool season and keep the most money in your pocket. Anyone can turn the thermostat up, but it is the frugally zealous who figure out a way to keep their home as warm as possible without putting a huge dent in the bank

44 Ways To Make More Money
(Forbes): "If you’re looking to increase your revenue streams, take heart:
Opportunities to earn extra money abound for people at all levels of
experience. While the gigs requiring more experience will pay more money, for
those starting out, even the earnings of lower-paying jobs will add up over
time."
How DUIs can wreck your chance to
buy life insurance (USA Today): "A drunken driving conviction
comes with a lot of well-known, long-term consequences, including probation,
license suspension, a potential jail sentence and years of higher car insurance
rates. But a DUI (driving under the influence) conviction can also have a
significant effect on the price you pay for life insurance — or whether you can
even get it."
