I love what he says about the real world and that government bookkeeping is a rigged game. I resent his straw arguments about “stupid” and wonder who he means by that. Often, Jindal has himself been stupid.
Both parties are STUPID as far as I am concerned. There are no representatives in either house that votes for their constituents, they vote party line on every issue, as directed by the party czars.....
The GOP needs to stop being the Gutless Coward Party. Start practicing conservative principles, and among them, publicly recognize Barry's gang of thugs and the Demonicrat party as lying, murderous traitors to the United States of America. One of the (likely long-term) goals then will be to bring these traitors and their co-conspirators to justice by trial and jury convictions.
Jindal ought to practice what he preaches!
What good is it to elect Republicans who think like Democrats?
Electing Republicans like John McCain, Lyndsey Graham, Kirk,and others is the same as electing Democrats.
Many of these Obama ass kissers who call themselves Republicans get to stay in office because they deliver the pork to their states.
Pork is what gets incumbents re-elected.Not their party affiliation.
People like pork ,feed them pork and they would return Musselini to office. That is what is killing America.
Republicans who have been around a long time living off opf taxpayers and feeding them pork to stay there. That is the first thing learned in the halls of the Capitol;.
Well folks the pork is running out. When we go bankrupt there will be no pork.
I like Bobby Jindahl. I understand what he means. But not only do we need to be the party of growth and ideas, we need a good housecleaning from within. Those that continually pick the candidates (The “It’s his turn mentality”), to the exclusion of all others, those that ‘tut-tut’ over the Tea Party citizens and the sniping and general takedown of people like Sarah Palin need to be rooted out.
Good article!
Two points.
1. Piyush Amrit Bobby Jindal
born June 10, 1971 in Baton Rouge, LA (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Amar Jindal born in India, naturalized Dec. 4, 1986
Raj Jindal born in India, naturalized Sept 21, 1976.
Parents were NOT US Citizens at the time of his birth (Does NOT meet the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Bobby Jindal is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
Bobby's status is the same as that of Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama, who is NOT a Natural Born Citizen.
2. Don't assume Shahanshah Obama will allow another election.
An essential problem with what he says is that it is old style thinking. From the Great Depression to today, our economy has been based on deficit spending, as a *strategy*.
The two ways used to *manage* this deficit spending are, on one side, “increasing growth and productivity”, and on the other side, the Keynesian “increasing government spending and inflation.”
However, what was not known when this economic adventure began was that eventually, the debt would destroy it all.
But both sides seem to be obsessively locked into using either one or the other type of management they know; but the real solution lies outside of that. To a great extent they cannot even *imagine* going outside of that paradigm, or that there can even *be* something outside that paradigm.
Far in the background, though, there has been another voice, ignored by the two, that at least sees that the situation is heading to collapse, that our fiat currency based economy is falling apart.
But their failing is being stuck in a non-evolving economic concept, that somehow our economy and currency could again be backed by gold. Fundamentally correct, sort of, but there is just not enough gold in the world to even support the economy of one major country, much less the entire world.
What could work is instead starting with gold, but expanding to other physical resources as well. Iron and steel, aluminum, lumber and paper, etc. It is pretty easy to figure out what, because they already have substantial commodities markets.
Importantly, when initially stabilizing the economy, the emphasis would have to be on non-renewable resources, before it could grow into renewable resources. But at no time could it be allowed to expand into virtual or subjective resources, or we would be back to economic disaster.
Currency would have to be limited to just that physically backed and exchangeable for these resources. Margin would be forbidden as well as futures and derivatives.
All credit, government and private, would have to be backed with 110% collateral, using the old saying, “You cannot have credit unless you do not need it.” And such collateral cannot be speculative or subjective, either, and if its value dropped below its collateral support level, it would have to be reinforced with additional collateral or the credit would be called.
This is pretty strict stuff, with little or no money left over for gaming, reckless investment, or largess. But it is also extremely stable.
Something that will be like a breath of fresh air when the deficit economies of the world collapse.
The Republican Party must become the party of growth, the party of a prosperous future that is based in our economic growth and opportunity (My emphasis) that is based in every community in this great country and that is not based in Washington, D.C., Jindal says.
So, Jindal is ready to accept the crooked ways (rigged game) and fix the problem by.........hold on to your hats folks..............generating more revenue than the crooks can spend.
Brilliant, simply brilliant Republican logic. If that doesn't earn him the Nobel Prize in economics then at least a share with Bernie Maddoff.
My position is that the GOP-e is not stupid. They simply are not interested in conservatism. They are (first, last, and only) interested in maintaining the perks and benefits of being in politics, while avoiding those things that might get the real Powers in the country annoyed with them.
In other words, the ACTUAL purpose of the Republican Party is to maintain the PRETENSE of opposition to Socialism.
To observe the truth of this, observe how polite and non-confrontational most Repub candidates are towards the Dems, compared to how they behave towards more-conservative primary opponents.
Never trust a Rhodes scholar ....
Sound like he’s saying that we need to give more free stuff to Eric Holder’s people than the Democrats.
Jindal is the Indian Marco Rubio
He has PhonyCon RINOs convinced he is conservative...but he is as liberal on issues as Rubio. And he is not eligible to be President

We are becoming Rome during Ceasar's time were money and corruption is rampant and politicians are afraid to act in fear of their very lives and fortunes. I believe we have many of our officials in this boat and it's time to either give them a life line or replace them and quickly.
