“Without God, there is not virtue, because there’s no prompting of the conscience. Without God, we’re mired in the matter, that flat world that tells us only what the senses perceive. Without God, there is coarsening of the society. And without God, democracy will not and cannot long endure. If we ever forget that we’re one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” - Ronald Reagan

A Detrimental Proposal.





It has been a while since I’ve written anything. After the beyond depressing election night, I needed a break. I didn’t feel like writing about gloating liberal morons cabbage patching in corners. But alas, here we go again. Let’s talk about Obama’s new proposal and what a complete JOKE it is.

It has three elements, but the non-fox media tends to ignore all three components. First, Obama wants to raise taxes on the top 2 percent of income earners, increasing revenue by $1.6 trillion.  This is the only part that the democrats will talk about, because they can easily convince the sheep-like common man to believe that the nasty, evil Republicans oppose it.

The highest tax-bracket is currently 35 percent. The hike would change that to approximately 39.6 percent. The democrats have an easy argument here, or so they think. “The Republicans only care about the rich. They already have money. Stop protecting them! They need to pay their fair share!” When you take state taxes, payroll taxes, capital gains taxes, people can end up paying well over 50 percent of their income in taxes! I don’t care how much money you have. It is absolutely CRIMINAL to take nearly 50 percent of someone’s money they earned! The government does not have a right to half your income. See? That’s the difference between conservatives and liberals.

 Conservative values are based on principle. Liberal values are based on feelings. Does it feel right to have the rich pay more because they’re well off? It does to them. Conservatives believe in fiscal responsibility. Taking more of the rich's money does not replace irresponsible government spending, which brings me to my next point.

Obama’s proposal also includes $50 billion in stimulus money. Because, as we can all see, the last few have done the economy wonders.  Honestly, I’m wondering how the Obama Administration can be so stupid. Stimulus hasn’t worked in the past. It isn’t working now, and it won’t help in the future.  Keynesian economics has failed miserably every time it’s been tried. Not to mention how much debt it will add. Another reason the Republicans oppose it.

Last, but certainly not least, Obama’s proposal includes enabling him to have executive privilege to raise the debt ceiling. The President believes his intellect is far above that of Congress, therefore, he should not have to negotiate with them or answer to them.

A combination of more tax increases, more stimulus spending, and more unchecked Obama is a recipe for absolute chaos- that’s why Republicans oppose it. The democrats will continue to whine and say the republicans only care about the wealthy and are halting progress. Insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results. Hence, the liberals are insane (and many other words I should refrain from saying, because I’m a lady).

The liberals are turning America to ruin, and the fact that we have to sit back and watch them dissect the country we love so much makes my blood boil. There is hope, of course. I will always believe there’s hope. The fundamental differences between conservatives and liberals can be seen with this bogus proposal. It’s a proposal based on feelings, not on principle and common sense. Unfortunately, common sense isn’t so common.
