fiat money

Until such time that the average citizen grasps the fact that all of economics can be boiled down to one sentence: “You can either create wealth, or borrow it” we are in trouble.

We have chosen to borrow it. Payback is a bitch. The Fed Gov't borrows .46C of every dollar it spends.

This before we discuss the Federal Reserve debasing the value of the dollar thru QE1, QE2, QE3, etc, etal......EVERY Currency based upon Fiat monet (fiat money is money back by “the full faith and credit of_____________” has resulted, in the end, in hyper inflation.

We have a spending problem not a revenue problem. Think about it. The Fed pour 3 Billion dollare a day into the available flow of Dollars. Is this sustainable? For how long? One Dollar is only worth One Dollar up and until people no longer believe it is. Then, the fall is dramic and sudden. (Think Weimar Republic [Germany after WWI]

But, that is not what the people voted for- for any number of reasons, #1 being privy to the truth. The strongest of men understand that they are the first witness to all their actions. With that witness being their greatest judge and harshest critic, they absolutely refuse to violate their principles and ethics. No matter what. So where do we all stand. Solve a problem long term, or continue to play these self inflicted games in lieu of telling "We the People" the truth. That promises made cannot be kept. Today, Tomorrow, or someday...but someone will have to. The day of reconing is near.

thoughts and quotes on the current war on law abiding gun owners

"Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom in Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any band of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. A military force, at the command of Congress, can execute no laws, but such as the people perceive to be just and constitutional; for they will possess the power, and jealousy will instantly inspire the inclination, to resist the execution of a law which appears to them unjust and oppressive."
--Noah Webster, An Examination of the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution (Philadelphia 1787).

"Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an American...[T]he unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people."
--Tenche Coxe, The Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.

"Whereas, to preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them; nor does it follow from this, that all promiscuously must go into actual service on every occasion. The mind that aims at a select militia, must be influenced by a truly anti-republican principle; and when we see many men disposed to practice upon it, whenever they can prevail, no wonder true republicans are for carefully guarding against it."
--Richard Henry Lee, The Pennsylvania Gazette, Feb. 20, 1788.

We can talk about changing the world in a positive way everyday and not see results. I believe the change starts from within. Be the change you wish to see. Wake up with the intention to learn, to become better, to inspire! Learn as much as possible to be educated enough to make a difference. It's about dreaming, encouraging, inspiring, imagining, loving, learning. Treat others how you want to be treated. Treat all fairly, but let no-one mistake politeness for weakness. Lose the hate, it only destroys you. Share instead of take. Hope for the hopeless. Dream for the dreamless. Encourage the discouraged. Instead of pointing at the person that is down, open up your hand and help 'em up. Instead of being jealous or envious of the person who has more; work harder, learn more and then apply what you learn. Equality under the law does not mean equality of outcome.

Take some damn personal responsibility!
