According to the Associate Press, (Click to Read) the net total of jobs vanished from the economy last month alone was 263,000, youth unemployment is at 52 percent, the unemployment rate stands at 9.8 percent, a 26-year high, it says that the rate would have been higher if 571,000 people hadn't dropped out of the labor force out of frustration over failing to find jobs, thus leaving 15.1 million Americans out of work. Yet the AP in typical fashion claims that these numbers were “much worse than expected”.

I just love that, during the previous administration any bit of good news about the war or otherwise, was always “better than expected”, however now that the bad news continues to flow in on a daily basis like some sort of feces waterfall, the news is always “worse than expected”.  Expected by whom?  Who are these people?  The administration is applying Marxist solutions to our nation’s challenges and somehow we are supposed to expect them to work this time? Where have these people been this last century? Are we to somehow believe that the administration has some sort of “Pixie Dust” to make nonsense work? It is said that a method which fails repeatedly may just possibly be wrong.

I admit that I grow inpatient when I hear the press and even acquaintances who I do not consider devoid of intelligence defending irrational positions which I find impossible to reconcile in my mind. Perhaps the answer is to accept that there are people who are so emotionally vested on these socialist ideas, that they are not capable of seeing the debacle unfolding in front of their own eyes. Decades of having the drumbeat of socialism drilled into their subconscious by a failed school system, a complicit media, an amoral Hollywood, and a bunch of demagogues that promise everyone everything as though things did really come out of thin air, have rendered some people incapable of objectively analyzing the absurdities they are being asked to believe in; it is as though they are in some sort of hypnotic trance which they need to be rid off before they can be logical again.

How much intellect is necessary to conclude that if you are in debt and you owe more money than you can pay, quadrupling that debt is not a good strategy for paying it? How can a logical person believe that adding forty seven million people to the healthcare rolls (most of which are illegal aliens), will not add cost, nor reduce services within the overall healthcare system? What sensible person believes that negating our companies to explore for oil, while everyone else is drilling all around us, will not increase our dependency and vulnerability? Where is the logic in negotiating with a deranged Holocaust denier, whose professed goal is the destructions of Israel, as well as all other “Infidels” in the world?

It is said that America gets up early, but wakes up late, let’s hope it does not wake up too late, I have said before that it will be the destiny of hard working men and women with strong conservative values, who will ultimately need to come along behind these plague called socialism, to clean up the mess that it will leave behind. If we hope to indeed achieve this goal, the time to get involved is now; we must write to our representatives, get involved on campaigns of politicians who respect our Constitution, and wage political war against those who view it as “a charter of negative liberties that only says what the states can’t do to you”, with all due contempt for that statement, I say thanks but no thanks, we have a pretty good idea of what  “the state can do to us”, we are certainly feeling it now, and it makes sitting… Idly very difficult, which is why I for one, don’t like it!
