Palin: Federal debt will enslave next generation to 'foreign master'

DES MOINES, Iowa, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- The federal debt "will be like slavery" for the next generation because it will be indebted to a "foreign master," Republican pundit Sarah Palin said in Iowa.

At the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition's fall fundraiser Saturday in Des Moines, Palin said the federal government offers a host of "free" services that must be paid for at some future date to someone, The Des Moines Register reported Sunday.

"Our free stuff today is being paid for by taking money from our children and borrowing from China," Palin told the audience in politically important Iowa. "When that money comes due -- and this isn't racist, but it'll be like slavery when that note is due. We are going to beholden to the foreign master."

She railed against establishment Republicans for abandoning conservative principles, singling out the Affordable Care Act, colloquially known as Obamacare.

"Remember their promise that they would do everything in their power to fight against socialized medicine, against Obamacare?" Palin said. "When it came time to stand and defund it, they waved the white flag of surrender and they threw under the bus the good guys who did stand up and fight."

She also spoke about what she called a censorship of Christian holidays, noting that she had a book on the topic that would be published in a few weeks, the Register reported.

"Enough is enough of this politically correct police out there that is acting to erode our freedom to celebrate and exercise our faith," the ex-Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate said.

I have been using the ‘Uniparty’ label whenever applicable here at FR...if we keep using it, maybe it will catch on with the conservative media (what little there is, of course). :-)

The military only accepts candidates who fall into a specific height range. This is primarily because the military doesn't have the time or money to order custom-made uniforms and equipment for those who fall outside of the standard ranges.

The cause for rejection for Armed Forces male applicants is height less than 60 inches or more than 80 inches. The cause for rejection for Armed Forces female applicants is height less than 58 inches or more than 80 inches. The Marines are more restrictive.

For the Marines, height standards for male applicants range from 58 to 78 inches. Height standards for female applicants range from 58 to 72 inches.

==-===

Looks like below 5 feet and above 6 foot 8 inches for guys and less than 4 foot 10 and above 6 foot 8 for women.

"How? Labor will move from unproductive to productive areas."

Not when there is high unemployment. There must be jobs available for labor to move to. Otherwise you just increase unemployment.

We actually own more of our debt than China does.

I believe China owns 6, maybe 7% of our debt. The Federal Reserve on the other hand (which none of us "own") has a heap load of American debt.

No matter whom we owe, putting it on the credit card is not a long-term solution to our government budgeting problems any more it is than our personal budgeting problems.

The debt of the USA to the so called Fed Reserve and thus onto China was foisted on the Nation as an established USA government action/obligation. In reality it was surreptitiously foisted on the USA by international bankers supposedly working for the benefit of the people of the USA by the likes of Soros and up through the chain of influence to the European bankers controlled by the Rothchilds. The Saudis who were partners with this group also got into the mix with their oil blackmailing. The people of the USA who actually are paying for this subterfuge can also thank Bush1 for his ‘new world order’.

Absolutely.

American needs to bring back American jobs, to hire Americans.

For an entire generation we have done the exact opposite.

Bring back American jobs.

Now.
