To my representatives in congress:
The Postal Service was born in 1775 and in 234 years you couldn't get it right. FDR was the chief architect of Social Security in 1935 and Fannie Mae in 1938. Johnson's "War on Poverty" that began in 1964, confiscated trillions of dollars in wealth to give to "the poor." All it did was create more poor people who are socially and morally bankrupt. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 and Freddie Mac came along in 1970. They're all broke.
Trillions were spent by Bush in the massive political payoffs called TARP* in 2008. Obama cooked up the Stimulus bill and the Omnibus Appropriations Act in 2009. The ACORN and APOLLO projects, along with tons of pork in other congressional bills have put American taxpayers in a financial hole for generations to come.
Cash for Clunkers was founded in 2009, and went broke in a record two months. Good cars that were the best that some folks could afford were replaced with high priced, mostly Japanese, cars. A big chunk of those profits went overseas. Thousands of those cars will be repossessed soon because buyers couldn't afford them and shouldn't have bought them.
With that perfect, 100% failure rate, now you want me to trust you with my health care? With all of the respect that is due to you, thanks but no thanks!
Bill Bane
P. S. Does the proposed new health care bill exempt politicians from having to participate?
P. P. S. Have you read this bill or is it like the others you signed without reading?
P. P. P. S. There's an ugly rumor that congressional pensions are funded by AIG. Is that the reason you gave them so much money?
* The corrupt banking industry, governed by the Federal Reserve Board (a product of the CFR (Council of Foreign Relations)** got nearly all of those funds to buy other banks, hold expensive retreats and declare new profits and big bonuses for their employees. As an old TV pitchman used to say, "Isn't that amazing!"
** It doesn't matter which party is in power. If you really want to understand this mess, read The Shadows of Power, by James Perloff. It exposes the CFR (New York money establishment gang) that is really ru(i)nning our country.
