‘73 & ‘74 were the ‘Super Beetle’ variety.
What we have here is a tale of FOLLOW THE MONEY.
Currently, we have a mutually beneficial, cave-in system where both political parties spend 40 % more money than they take in as income. [ Note: Their word for Cave-in is Bi-Partisan.]
40 % of the Annual Federal Spending is for Welfare: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare, Aid to Dependent Children, Food Stamps, Rental Aid to Illegal Alien Invader children and adults from Mexico, etc, etc, etc.
365 days X 0.6 = 219 days after October 1 (Fed. Fiscal Year) for non-Welfare, Federal expenses, most of which is for salaries.
After the 219 days, (60 % of a year), or 7.3 months, ( April 9, +/-), are up the Feds either print more money or sell bonds to pay for the rest of the Fed. Fiscal year Welfare expenses.
The rest of the year: April 9 to October 1, the US Federal Government spends every second increasing the National Debt burden on us and our Grandchildrens Descendants.
So much for what our highly paid Federal Politicians in both political parties are doing TO us.
Now comes what their smokescreen diversions are: Are you Liberal or Conservative?
To test this smokescreen, just ask yourself the following question:
If a Conservative Politician is a Politician who Conserves, then who are the Politicians in all of our political parties who have EVER Conserved anything?
My point is that the Left and Right Stream Media are distracting We, The People by this fracturing and splitting topic, while both political parties happily continue to convince us that we really do need 40 % more Federal Government than we can pay for.
There is no fracturing of any political party, as both of our political parties have the same basic goal: KEEP ON INCREASING THE SIZE OF THE US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
If you doubt me, then just FOLLOW THE MONEY.
