Turn The Nation Around

The first thing is we need to unite the citizens of this great country in order to accomplish anything! The vote does count all you have to do is vote and it will be counted. You know for years all I have been hearing is why should I vote it doesn’t matter, it’s the Electoral College that elects the President. Well I believe that is all the EC( Electoral College) is concerned with and most of the time they vote with the people. Now as for as the House and the Senate I believe it is the people that control that vote. What I think is that “my vote doesn’t count” started as an excuse that some people made so they wouldn’t have to get up off their lazy butts and go vote. After all these years the LB syndrome has escalated and we have lost control of Our Government. So I say again it is time for us to defeat the Lazy Butt syndrome and unite to regain our dignity and prosperity.


The second is we need to vote the crooks and derelicts out and put in some good people, but with restraints. I believe that two terms is enough for any Representative or Senator. Also they should not be allowed to vote in their own pay raises and budget increases. I also believe that all persons running for the congress should be restricted to use the same amount of campaign funds to level the playing field, this way no one can be accused of buying their seat.

Third we need to take control of the government back from the hands of big business (Insurance companies, Hospitals, Oil Industry, and so forth). Lobbyist buying votes for their favor needs to be illegal and punishable by jail time and fines. Greed has ran this country long enough.

Fourth lower the gold price back in line with the world economy. This would have to be done in increments in order not to create Super Inflation. When you raise the price of gold the dollar value goes down and vice versa. Gold goes down and the dollar goes up.

Once we stand to gather as a people then and only then will we be able to have our Government Of the People, For the People, and By the People.

How we let ourselves down

All I have to say is the Government has not let us down. On the other hand it is us that let the Government down. Yes by our lack of interest in our government of the people, by the people, for the people. We have for some time thought the government was in place to do everything for us, protect us, feed us, and keep us healthy. At least that is what we assumed after we elected them into office. We are the ones who let them get out of control, by being too trusting.


We should have never:

1. allowed private banking to be put in charge of minting our currency, yes the Federal Reserve Bank

2. allowed the House and the Senate to give their selves pay raises and to increase their own budgets without approval of the people

3. allowed the House and the Senate  to take the states’ rights to control their own commerce away

These are just a few things we allowed by being too trusting, thinking they (the government) our representatives would do what we needed to do without any oversight. They are men and women and can be corrupted with money and power like anyone can.

We allowed this to happen and it is we who have to fix it.

The new year

I wonder what people think this New Year will bring, fortune, famine, or more of the same? I personally believe if the Government doesn’t change their mode of thinking. We will be in more trouble than we are now. With gold prices rising the way it is, the dollar is going to be worth far less than it is today which isn’t much. Gold was $35.00 USD many years ago. The Great Depression came in 1929 and then FDR decides in 1933 that the way to get us out of the depression was to raise the gold price to $42.00 USD whish caused the Depression to be extended to 11 years. If it had not been for Perl Harbor which brought the USA into WWII that depression would have lasted a lot longer and more than likely tumbled the United States.

Here is the way it works, when gold prices go up the dollar value goes down. It is that plain and simple. Gold is over 1100 dollars an once, that last time I checked. If it continues upward, well we haven’t seen hard times like what will come. Now this is just my prospective on the situation. Feel free to comment on yours. I like a good discussion.
