I hope you might indulge some musings on what might be going on with the democrat “free stuff” campaign.

I have been wondering for a while if POTUS has a plan to deal with our $22T debt. What if he could eliminate it? I predict that the very first thing that would happen is that the dems would find ways to run up the debt immediately. It’s like there would be - in their minds - no reason not to start handing out all the free crap they promise. And we’d be right back where we are now in no time at all. In fact, we’d probably be in worse shape. Much like a lottery winner who instead of benefiting from the windfall, spends like a maniac and ends up in worse shape than before he won.

So I am thinking that MAYBE, just maybe, one good purpose for all the D pandering is to raise the issue of all these schemes. An intelligent discussion of these issues would present intelligent reasons why they are NOT a good idea. The public needs to know and understand this before someone pays off their credit card debt and issues new credit cards.

Do spendthrifts ever learn from their mistakes? IDK. Or is it up to those of us who are responsible to keep them in check. Sigh. Probably.

That's why I'm in favor of President Trump removing the Federal Reserve and the central bank system of debt for governments and replace it with something more stable. The debt system only encourages politicians and the dem party to give away the farm for votes. The dem party and their entitlement industry would be in big trouble. X22 Report has had good information on this and thinks President Trump is preparing for a change during his second term in office.

Good perspective and insight, Gen! It probably IS up to us to hold them in check by holding on to the check book! Hope we can manage to do that.
