Bring back the American Dream

It is time that the American Dream is re-established, that American Citizens and companies are not insulted and taxed out of existence because they dare to make a profit. The American people need to remember that the government is here to serve the American Citizen; the American Citizen is not here to serve the government contrary to what the politicians want us to believe

It is time the government stops taking money out of the pockets of the American Citizen under the guise of taxes to better the living conditions of citizens of foreign countries. It is time the American government stops taking jobs and money away from American Citizens by giving foreign countries/companies breaks on duties and tariffs on imports into the US. The duties and tariffs and red tape should match what that country charges American companies to import into their country. It is time the government stops with punitive taxes and untenable laws based on emotion and run by government agencies that act as feudal lords on American business that prevent them from making a profit in America.

We need to rid the government of the professional politicians those people who have done nothing but live off the tax dollars/backs of hardworking American Taxpayers and put in their place business people who understand profit and loss. Who understand that budgets must be made and adhered to. Who understand that it is the government’s job to cut costs and not just increase taxes on already over taxed citizens who have to make cuts in their own budgets. It doesn’t matter if they are democrat or republican if they are not for the working American Taxpayer and American Businesses they need to go. In short we need to have a house cleaning in Washington. Again it doesn’t matter if they are democrats or republicans if they put any other country above America they need to go.

Education???

I don’t understand how we can continue to throw tax dollars down the proverbial toilet of what passes for education in these times. 

Educate-to develop the faculties and powers of (a person) by teaching, instruction, or schooling.

However we no longer educate our youth or anyone, all we do is instruct them how to memorize so they can pass standardized tests.  No thought process involved or questioning allowed.

Celebrate The American Revolution

Celebrating Connecticut’s role in the American Revolution is a very good idea.  The fact that Gov. Malloy is hitching his political star to it is sheer audacity of the highest sort.  Gov Malloy, Rep Donovan and others of their same mindset and political leanings represent everything our revolutionary forefathers detested and fought against.

Tyranny in the issuing of executive orders to by-pass the will of the people and their duly elected representatives, the disregarding the will of the people in the matter of the death penalty, in the power given to unions that takes the right to work from others.  Tyranny in the form of government agencies that act as feudal lords in regards to their dealing with the taxpayers, in the fact they sign contracts with labor unions and others that the people who pay the bill are forbidden to be part of or view the negotiations.  In the total ignoring of the fact that they are elected, appointed and hired to serve the will of the majority of the people, the people are not here to serve them.

Taxation without adequate representation.  The constant increasing of taxes to continue to feed the never satisfied hunger of government programs that are doing nothing more then turning Connecticut into a socialist/feudal state where those in power just keep their boot of taxation to the throat of the working taxpayers of Connecticut.

Celebrating the part our forefathers played in the revolution should be a wakeup call to the citizens of Connecticut to demand that our elected officials follow the Constitution of the State of Connecticut.  That they hold all government employees elected, appointed or hired accountable to the people of Connecticut.  That they not continue to destroy the American Dream of making a better life for oneself and one’s family by taxation.

Emotion vs. Logic

Time to retire the political labels of conservative and liberal and exchange them for the terms Logical and Emotional.
The discussion of raising the minimum wage shows how different the 2 points of view are.  

Emotion says it is the correct thing to do, increase the minimum wage with no facts to show that it will be a benefit.   It is nothing but a feel good law and will not solve anything just cause more problems.

Logic says if the minimum wage is increased all goods and services will see an increase in prices to cover the corporation’s additional cost not only of the raise but the increase in federal and state taxes.  Because of this fact when the raise goes into effect it will do nothing to help the plight of the minimum wage workers, everything they buy will have increased in price thus negating the raise.  Companies that employ mainly minimum wage employees may have to cut some positions in order to remain solvent thereby putting more people on unemployment or welfare. Others hurt by this will be the ones who make more than minimum wage because their pay will not go up but their costs for groceries and day to day items will increase thereby lowering their standard of living.

Emotionally and with little logic it is a feel good idea that actually ends up hurting not only those it was intended to help but many others who are barely scraping by in this day and age.

Thin human herds not animals

Why do we always have to thin out animal herds in their own area? Humans are the ones causing the problem by constantly reproducing when there aren’t enough natural resources to support more humans. We are the ones destroying the environment not the animals!




Don’t you think it’s time to start thinking quality rather than quantity for human life? My living will and health care proxy clearly states if I am paralyzed, in a permanent vegetative state and so on can’t feed myself (the big A) pull the plug. Living like that is not life, in my mind it is hell on earth!



Oh can one of you Christians out there who believes in and praises heaven as fantastic beautiful and the best there explain why you and your religion want to keep alive a loved one who is clearly not living a true life but rather just kept alive on machines? I think that’s cruel and inhuman, but what do you expect of a religion that treats women as second class?

Government job titles

American politicians have become increasingly confused about their jobs and powers in recent years. Perhaps this could help straighten out the confusion, look at the job titles; President, Vice-President, Senator, Congressman all these titles are followed by, “The United States of America”. The titles are not followed by “The World” though they seem to think so.


Our politicians have lost their way, they have forgotten the sacred trust they inherited from those who came before and that simply is, the protection and betterment of the United States of America and her legal citizens called Americans. They are not responsible for bettering the quality of life or the governing any other nation. Especially, when the bettering of the other nation lowers the quality of life for Americans.

They have forgotten that in a republic the government derives its powers from the people. Its job is to serve the people it is not the people’s job to serve the government.

It is time to vote out all the politicians who think their title ends in “The World” and elect officials who understand the title ends in “the United States of America”. People who understand the legacy left them by Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and the like who envisioned not a ruling elite class of politicians but rather common men coming together for a short period not a career to best help govern their friends and countrymen to make and keep America free and the best country in the world.

I'm Tired

I’m tired of hearing about the rights of illegal aliens who have no right to be here.


I’m tired of hearing about the rights of prisoners who are incarcerated because they violated the rights of others.

I’m tired of hearing about the rights of welfare recipients who never contributed to society yet expect society to take care of them.

I’m tired of the rights of politicians to receive retirement from an elected position and better health care and pay then the average taxpayer.

I’m tired of my tax dollars going to other countries when they should take care of themselves.

I’m tired of America playing the world’s policeman and wasting the lives of American youths and tax dollars with no benefit to America.

Now I have questions.

When did I and tens of millions of taxpayers lose the right to keep the money we earn?

When did I and tens of millions of taxpayers lose the right to better ourselves and our families financially and materially?

When?

America was built on the American dream of building a better and more comfortable life for ourselves and our families through hard work, when did that change? Maybe when people who were too lazy to work for themselves started electing politicians who would steal from the working taxpayers under the guise of taxes and give it to themselves and the lazy? I read that one major sign of the death of a great nation/civilization was when people started voting themselves money. I think we’re there.

What incentive do I or any taxpayer have to work harder, more hours, go for a promotion anything that we use to do in the past to better ourselves? None, not when all that will happen is more money will be taken out of our pay to better the lives of those I mentioned earlier. What inventions are being lost, what great strides in life are not happening all because people who are lazy feel they are entitled to the same lifestyle as people who work for what they want and they keep electing politicians who take from the workers and give to the shiftless.

This needs to stop or America is dead.
