I guess once again it's "Screw Ruidoso and small town people in this country"
...the UN needs yet more welfare money from mom and dad to help my mom and dad because all the welfare money mom and dad are sending to Washington isn't enough yet"???
Mom and dad might have a serious problem about being forced to send their money to the UN...but don't worry, the extortionists have promises of doom for non-action. Yeah, mom and dad...if you don't help, don't you know:
Surely the World Bank, which can exist only because the UN takes welfare money and gives it to the fellow bureaucrats at the World Bank, would never stir up fear for its own purposes, would it?
As Wikipedia will accurately tell you: "The World Bank was created following the ratification of the United Nations Monetary and Financial Conference|Bretton Woods agreement."
And now the UN and the World Bank want part of the welfare money in this stupid stimulus package so that the non-elected bureaucrats at those places who create policies like "Food for oil" and oversee (I have written in the Financial Times before that the UN/World Bank actually CREATE) the endless wars and poverty in Africa can funnel that money to their buddies and causes?
You know, the money my mom and dad sent to Washington to send to their buddies, including those cronies at the UN so that they can in turn to send to their buddies...that money could have gone to fixing the crappy sewage system in Ruidoso that somehow leaves traces of human feces down river in the Rio Ruidoso.
Somehow, I tend to think that Ruidoso's voice in Washington isn't going to be loud enough to get much of anything that would help the community and the hard-working citizens therein. Those kids in the Hondo Valley don't need to play in the river after all -- they should be inside playing Nintendo anyway.
Ever notice the single fundamental recurring rift between those of us who are fighting against all these interventions, bailouts, stimulus bills, spending, and those who enable them with promises of doom if "we do nothing"?
That single fundamental difference between the private US citizen versus the Republican/Democrat regime and all of you who support it and/or its policies in any way shape or form is simply this:
All we're asking for is to be left alone while everything you and the regime ask for requires you taking something from someone and giving it to someone else.
Stop it. My mom and dad's money does not belong to the Republicans or Democrats in Washington and it sure as hell doesn't belong to the non-elected, non-Constitutional bureucrats at the UN.
Confidence won't return and neither will the economic boom nor the bull market until we simply trust that my mom and dad should have the right to their own money and can once again focus on building for their family, their community, their state, their country ...and not focus on just trying to keep what they've earned and saved as the government passes 1075 new pages worth of laws and tax tricks.
Just leave us alone.
