Not so random thoughts |

January 1, 2012 Common sense - the most uncommon of values. I'd like to visit Europe, not live there. Numbers don't lie and politicians can't add. A reduction in the percentage of increase is not a cut. Interest on $14,000,000,000,000 at 3.5% is $490 billion per year. If we cut $4 trillion over ten years (or $400 billion per year) from a budget that is more than $1.5 trillion out of whack, where is there savings? If 1% of the people pay 50% and 50% of the people pay nothing, how are the 1% not doing their share? Move jobs to Korea and there's no problem. Build a plant in South Carolina and get sued by the federal government. Then ask why business doesn't hire people in the US. Expect a Lot. Rise to the challenge. Tell the Truth. You may be the only person who can or will say what needs to be said. 01.20.2013 - will it come soon enough? |
