It sure seems silly to me
Lawmakers
pass laws, but not laws that fund the enforcement of said laws. So most people
and often our police just ignore these silly new laws. Said another way, new laws without backing
are just a waste of time for so many of us.
Executives in government and even our judges
will release prisoners due to overcrowding in jails. Plan B still remains
active, like why not build more jails than release the imprisoned? After all,
our population is growing, and so should our jail capacity, for example, too.
And jails don’t have to be wonderful palaces with clocks on the walls and TV’s
in each room.
We, the new
world USA, are unilaterally disarming without considering a Plan B, which is more
like pay for our National Defense. Of course I thought I had a chance to vote
on this issue, but that has never occurred.
Our federal
government appears to be doing everything possible to enhance illegal
immigration and the start of a new pandemic in our country. Now that just seems silly to me, including
spreading these people around at local taxpayer expense after they land there in these local areas, and not the expense of
the federal people working on such a method. That method is often called a
“hidden tax”.
Locally, it
is called “spray and pay”. The local firefighters will often show up just to
watch the house burn down. Said another way, paying local taxes no longer is
enough, like we now have to pay on top of that in order to receive fire
protection. It sure seems like taxes are just to fund the firefighters way of
life, including pensions, rather than “fighting fires”. Similar things are
happening in our police protection, too.
Often people now have to hire extra police protection on top of what our
taxes pay for. There is something wrong
with that picture.
Drudge
reports almost 21% of people in the Baltimore area already work for the
government in one form or the other. I would have guessed the number was around
3% to 5%. 21% is just too high for me.
So many old
time politicians say spending taxpayer money is the best evidence of their
sincere intentions. Nowhere is performance or outcomes ever mentioned. Now I
think most people want to help our less well off, but we also expect some kind
of positive outcome to the effort. That includes the “less well off” taking
advantage of the opportunity when presented to get ahead of their earlier
status, vice just taking the taxpayer provided money, and becoming even more
dependent.
The effort
to “equalize” men and women is a noble effort. But in the military, there are
certain combat jobs that require size and strength, often demonstrated by males
most often. Now if we abandon these
steadfast requirements, then we are condemning our Nation (and our children) to
losing many future battles, and often the outcomes will change our course of
history. Plan B is simply to maximize our strengths and minimize our weaknesses
as we promote women in the military.
Many are
already starting to die at newer and higher rates that reflect the failing “Obama
care” policies and new laws that are also closing many urban and rural
hospitals. Even long believed in subjects like abortion are now being thrown
out the window in favor of the present ruling classes standards, which are
often very different when it comes to abortion.
When
politicians start getting involved in global warming, and some scientists start
getting involved in politics, then we are getting silly again. Even in my own
lifetime I can remember the coming global ice age cover story on Time Magazine,
and now four decades later it is about the coming global warming problems.
Even some politicians want us to change our way of life in order to meet their “scientific
judgments” about what to do. Some of these ideas have even extended to thought
control and even criminalizing opposing present points of view.
And along
those lines, when start we spending more
time indoctrinating our children during their education period of their life,
rather than educating them, then we are doing them a serious and immoral
service both to their own happiness and ability to contribute to their society
during their adult portion of their lives.
Governments
that use shenanigans and propaganda and lies to rule are destined to fall on
the trash heap of history. The big question is……can we recover from it? For
example, after WWII we helped much of the World recover from this terrible
world war that affected us all. Now I don’t think we can.
Said another way, any
recovery will take a lot longer, like maybe even centuries.
And last, we
get what we pay for. And right now it sure seems like we are not getting what
we paid for. And if the taxpayers can’t fund the pay and pensions of this ever
growing large government class, then how are these people to survive like the
taxpayers already have to do. At a
certain point, there will be a “straw” that broke the camel’s back. And to
pursue such a course of action sure seems silly to me.
