Well of course... but desperate times call for desperate measures.I don’t agree.
We need servants. Citizens ready and willing to devote their life’s work to the service of this Nation.
This is not the way to foment change. This path will not lead to more stability. This path will be the example to the next group of disgruntled neo-revolutionaries.They are too far rooted in to every (or nearly every) institution in the Federal govt, in the media and in large corporations. We are living in a fascist/corporatist/cartelist system. These people need to be defeated by any means necessary. This country cannot survive even 8 more years of this. The demographics are not necessarily in our favor, either.
Reduced spending alone wouldn’t do it. Need a new revenue stream.
It would be better to have a controlled landing versus a crash landing. The time to do a controlled landing is running out.To right this sinking ship we would have to enact some severe austerity measures and everyone would feel the pain for awhile. Nobody running for an office would ever be elected on that platform.
You may be right. But I will take any opportunity I can to root against these people gaining more ground and more control.This is not the way to foment change. This path will not lead to more stability. This path will be the example to the next group of disgruntled neo-revolutionaries.
Our opportunity for reformation founded in solid ground...and it will be fleeting...is after the collapse.
Oh yea. It would take something wild, like efficient electrolysis. And we sell it to the world at after markup.You would need seismic discoveries to have a chance. Like simultaneous instant cures for Alzheimer’s and all cancers. Or a new form of fuel that was essentially free.
Even then, we would just find new things to borrow for. It is a behavior issue.
I’ve never smoked in my life and don’t plan to. However, I’m not opposed to this. It’ll pass sometime in my life, I’m sure.
Has the President said what his reasons are for this stance?
