Simple math...we’re PRINTING MONEY. We have to have inflation. The real questions are the following:

1) With people screaming to “DO SOMETHING”, will we get price controls - and, if so, just how bad will the resultant shortages become?

2) Will our government EVER commit to again growing the economy, or will we have to watch our wealth disappear into nothing while we save the world from global warming, save the Delta Smelt (in California), and God knows what else?

3) What taxes will increase, in order to pay for our new society - getting a VAT is assured (the starting rate is the only question); European-style gas taxes, or road pricing (tolling by the mile) is almost assured.

4) Will the people wake up and realize that the people in power literally HATE the country (as we’ve known it), and take WHATEVER (legal) action is necessary to rid themselves of this people? Right now, most people still think that our leaders have good intentions, but are simply misguided. Recognizing evil in others, when you are an inherently good person is difficult to do, but necessary for survival. Americans have stepped up to this challenge in the past...but it’s been easier to recognize and react when the evil is being done by foreigners.

The Democrats are now scheming to get their health care bill started immediately. They are concerned that their voters will eventually figure out that this evil monster does not become a “benefit” until 2014. They are also concerned that those CBO figures they fed the public, will backfire on them as early as the 2010 elections.

They see the “need” to get a VAT tax passed before this fall while they still have a strangle hold on the population. Added to their list is, Amnesty, Crap & Tax, Fairness Doctrine, and several other power related issues. (Abolishing the Electoral College included.)

We can expect them to use the same tactics while they diffuse the public with the MSM’s help, during the Summer months.

In short, it's going to be a miserable Summer to say the least!

Starving the Monkeys

We can starve the monkeys of the value they steal from us. But this requires a deep understanding of where that value comes from in the first place, so that we can turn off the valve. Shallow efforts to resist by refusing to pay your income taxes will only get you arrested, or worse.

Nor do these solutions involve violence, "grab your gun" or any other kind of "let's go git 'em, boys!" kind of foolishness.

Doing that would only get you killed. And the responsible parties would rejoice at your sacrifice. Because that is exactly what they want you to do. Get killed, so that you, and your ideas, are out of the way.

Don't give them the satisfaction. Besides, your brothers are going to need you later.

There is a much, MUCH, better way. This way.
