Free Republic

Free trade, Free trade, Free trade. We haven’t had free trade in this country for a long, long, long time. What we have is welfare system for large corporate. One day it well bankrupt us. As more and more people receive social welfare it free up their money to buy good from wider range of corporation. Unlike a lot of us who help to produce wealth, social welfare people produce no wealth. (Think of sub-prime home loan “banks” selling houses to just warm bodies.)Foreign aid is nothing more than corporate welfare as well. Lets say a small country has a natural resource that corporation wants to buy but that country needs electric plant. Our government gives the “leader” of that country $10 million of our money. He skims $3 million and pays GE $7 million to build the electric plant. Sorry, that’s not free trade. That’s corporate welfare.

That would make one heck of a margarita.? Does that come with saddlebags? Those boys don’t know how to change the argument and put the Socialist on defence.

First, I like Hannity, Rush, Beck and so on. But some times they amaze me. I agree with Buffett. He pays 15% and his secretary pays 35%. That’s total unfair. The boys kept saying it’s different. Screw that type of argument.

They should argue the only FAIR SOLUTION is to drop her rate DOWN to Buffett’s tax rate and cut the spending in D.C. Come on Republicans, Independents and Libertarians get on the ball. Put the Socialist in their Place.

“Ah ,let guess , the biofuel people are, oh , Obama’s friends.”

Yep. And they all live down in Brazil. Not only we’ll we be dependent on foreign oil, we’ll be dependent on foreign biofuel.

“With eight Democrats facing charges in the investigation, Gordon sums up the situation by saying, ”Democrats wanted to win and it appears at any cost.”

“This was greed, ignorance, lack of ethics, and laziness. Bad people doing bad things.”

Does anybody think they will go to jail for a long time? Na, House arrest for about a month.

Very interesting. I know someone out there could make a video of Obama and the South American connection. Remember- the money going to Brazil Government owned Oil Company and Obama words “We’ll be their best Customer”. Throw in the oil rigs leaving the Golf and XL pipeline and put it on You Tube. Folks, that’s a Winner.

Just heard on CNBC. China may decouple with the Dollar in 18 mos.

Don’t be taken in. EU trading scam maybe dying, but they still want the corporate welfare scam.

I seem to recall a county down in South America who’s President suspended their two term limit and wanted to run again. What happen? The county’s congress went to the judges and got a arrest warrant for their president which fled the county and our State Department backed him instead of their Constitution. Only if we and a Congress as committed to our Constitution as they are to theirs OBama should be impeached.

Where’s the State Department. I forgot, silly me, Hillary is giving $3,000,000.00 to a gay and lesbian for persecution at the hands of Muslims awareness program.

Just like tax reform which promise to lower your taxes, Obama will increase the size of government with more workers and regulations

At least a rise in sale tax is up front, out in the open and fair to everybody

“Just a bunch of numbskulls who can’t read the unemployment numbers and see that 5 trillion dollars in new debt...”

Yep, we’re too stupid to read. I hope Sarah would run for the Senate.

“free-market liberalism” most mean crony capitalism. It sure not the free market.

I’ve lived through, so called, Tax reforms. Each time taxes have gone up with more rules and regulation. Did you know at one time you did not have to pay income tax on Social Security. When ever a politician say they are going lower your taxes or tax reform, hold on to your wallet.

“.....the unions thought they ran the country and she had to show them they were wrong.” Way to go UK. Do to unintended consequences you are well on your way to being a third world nation as more and more of your wealth is sucked out of your pocket through CO2 Cap And Trade. Next stop: Serfdom.

“Not one of your examples require a citizen to purchase a product.”

That was my point. But our Dictators in charge thinks they can win with that type of “ straw man” arguments.

“There are lots of other mandates the federal government has imposed over the years,” a senior administration official told reporters in a conference call Friday. “From having to answer the census,...”

It is required in the Constitution.

“....to having to turn in your gold coinage in 1934,...”
the draft...”

There was exchange for paper “gold” Money.

“If you buy a car, it has to have seat belts in it.”

It is federal mandate that the car has a seat belt, I’m not required to walk around with a seat belt. And as for car insurance, If I pay cash and don’t drive it on any street or highways, I’m not required to have insurance. Think Dirt Bikes.

“Just wondered why you focused on Britain and not the other 26 EU countries really?”

Because your “Iron Lady” wanted to promote more nuclear power and cut the political power of the coal union (I’m not a union guy) and started dishing out your hard earn tax money to “scientist” to find the “link” between CO2, mam and global warming.

Hopefully we’ll soon be able to describe the UK as an ex-EU country soon! :D

I hope you do. Your Progressive Elites will suck ever penny out of you and you will be become true SURFS to the “Rent Seekers”.

“Because hospitals are legally required to treat people who can’t pay,...”

Here the first problem. Privet hospitals are forced to give away goods and services (which I believe) is be on the scope of the Commerce clause. It would be a different story for a government owned hospital.
