Government the New Religion – A Catholics Perspective

In the name of the President, Senate, and House of Representatives, amen.

Our government who art in Washington

Spending be thy name

Thy taxes come

Thy debt be done

In every state as it is in Washington

Give us this day your daily lie

And forgive your criminal friends their trespasses

As we forgive you for taking away our liberties

Lead us not to self-reliance

But deliver to us more entitlements

For the government

The lobbyist

And the unions

Are the only ones you listen too

Everyday you are in office

Amen.

Harry's Plan to Fix America

In news conference on June 8, Biden's chief economist Jared Bernstein said of the first 100 days of Obama's administration "we've created or saved over 150,000 jobs". The truth is since February of 2009 the number of unemployed rose from 12.5 million to 14.5 million. Most kids over the age of 10 can tell you that 14.5 is bigger than 12.5, so how do you save or create 150,000 jobs? Why did we spend 800 billion dollars to stimulate the economy? I have a better Idea and it will only cost 305 million dollars.

We could give everyone in the nation a million dollars and saved 799 billion dollars. I mean everyone man, women and child. If we each invested the million dollars in a mutual fund earning 12% interest we would get $10,000 each month and not touch the million dollars. Wow we could pay off our debt, own a house, pay for our own health care, and have leftover to take a vacation.With my plan we can dissolve the IRS, Medicare, and Social Security. Imagine no more Federal Income Tax ever! Collection on tariffs from trade and corporate taxes will pay for the Military and the few required federal services, CIA, FBI, Legislative, Judicial, and Executive branches of the Federal Government. Done.

Imagine a Nation with no more poor, hungry, or homeless.

Pay As You Go, No Go in Congress

President Obama in a press conference told reporters that any new spending or tax cuts must be paid for, however, we can run a deficit to get health care reform going. Anyone but me see a problem with that statement? It is a lie. Polls tell Obama that he is in trouble with the American people because of his spending. To counteract the polls he is offering a flat out lie. Congress has always had a pay as you go rule, they just circumvent the rule as they please. They will do the same to pass the health care spending bill as well as cap and trade to do it.

Now is the time to find new people to head to Capital Hill. Make sure they are not politicians or lawyers, lobbyist or special interest, and no one from a single union. The people we send should be more concerned with their current job or business and be bothered that they have to serve. That way only issues that really concern the people are brought before congress and congress will only meet for a few days.

They will do away with the IRS because it is bloated and only encourages the Federal Government to spend money. The will do away with all entitlements because only about five cents out of every dollar reaches the people who need the money. Local charities are better suited for handling these operations. Most importantly they will bring common sense to Capital Hill.

Imagine a pay check with no Federal Income Tax, FICA, Medicare, and whatever else we need to pay to the Feds. April 15 will become an ordinary day. Imagine being able to give to a local charity money that the government used to take. In stead of five cents on the dollar they get ninety five. The best part is you get to choose the programs you want to support. Choice is beautiful.

Enough is enough. We have a choice. Use your voice, pen, or computer to tell congress it is over. We are taking the country back. They no longer represent America. They represent the love of your money not you. Stop the lies. Change the makeup of Government. Let common sense rule. We have a choice.
