brainwash, cowardess, debt, hypocracy, identity, obamacare, power, random, taxation, waste

To be savior, you create factions, inciting them against slandered innocents, all for power, greed, and revenge. Not who, but what are you? @ 11.30.12

art.I,§.7,c.1: “All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives…” so… originate already. #gop @ 11.29.12

The phrase “It’s a free country” didn’t die off because it became cliche. It died as it no longer applied, as freedom had been traded in. @ 11.29.12

That our standard of living so regularly & increasingly hangs by a thread dangled by a govt with no such vested power, just pisses me off! @ 11.29.12

Perspective … and an evolved point of view on the greater gamble @ 11.29.12

All it takes is money that you didn’t earn, taken from someone you don’t know, with consequences you don’t care about. That’s all it takes. @ 11.28.12

The problem isn’t him, so much, as it is all those people who think they’re supposed to like him so much. @ 11.28.12

If you CANNOT question the authority of your government, you are enslaved. If you WILL NOT question it, you are a fool! ~tdv #liberty @ 11.28.12

Over/above the $16T debt, Think $87T in promises we can’t pay for, $7T accrued last year! http://market-ticker.org/post=214320  ~h/t @AnnBarnhardt ~@ 11.27.12

Is obama as outraged about this as he was about the ‘video’? Or would he say the “future must belong” to the artist. @ 11.27.12

Raising taxes on the ‘wealthy’ serves ONLY ONE purpose: Divide and demoralize the conservative electorate! @ 11.27.12
Related: Congressman: Obama’s tax increases fund government for eight days 11.28.12

Yep, America’s become a freaking TV show, and the only people left with any sense don’t have a set. @ 11.26.12

Imagine the day when Congress will meet, and adjourn, admitting of nothing to do, and having done nothing. @ 11.26.12

We didn’t hire Republicans to bend over. We hired them to stand up. @ 11.26.12

Lawless to tell doctor what’s ailing you during obamacare “free” annual exam, but he’s mandated to tell YOU about seat belts @ 11.26.12

Wow. Read.~> The Parchment-Thin Veil of Civility By Glenn Fairman 11.26.12

More on Poisons to the Blessings of Liberty

control, excess, govt, law, liberty, waste

In 1998, the Code of Federal Regulations ~ 134,723 pgs, 201 vols., 19 feet of shelf space. In 1970, the CFR only 54,834 pgs. @ 06.12.12
Ref: http://usgovinfo.about.com/od/uscongress/a/fedregulations.htm 

Obama launched 3,611 new regulations, 106 of them “major”, meaning EACH COST ECONOMY OVER $100 MIL/YR @ 08.12.12
Ref: http://blog.heritage.org/2012/06/08/is-obama-turning-the-economy-around/ 

Obamacare: 2700 pgs., Dodd-Frank: 850 pgs. (1864 Banking Law: 29 pgs., 1913 FedResAct: 32 pgs., 1933 Glass-Steagall Act: 37 pgs.) @ 08.12.12
Ref: Too big not to fail  on the Dodd-Frank Act, from the Economist

Federalist No. 62, paragraph 16 (emphasis mine):

The internal effects of a mutable policy are still more calamitous. It poisons the blessings of liberty itself. It will be of little avail to the people, that the laws are made by men of their own choice, if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood: if they be repealed or revised before they are promulgated, or undergo such incessant changes, that no man who knows what the law is to-day, can guess what it will be to-morrow. Law is defined to be a rule of action; but how can that be a rule, which is little known and less fixed.

Government Growth as Per Capita Spending (~yr:‘05$/person) ~1800:$32 ~1900:$170 ~1950:$2,022 ~2000:$7,152 ~2012:$10,433 @ 08.12.12

EPA Costs Manufacturing Sector $117 Billion! Total Federal Regulation costs $500B ~wonder how many JOBS (people) that is? @ 08.12.12
Ref: http://www.sacbee.com/2012/08/21/4744381/nera-report-finds-increasing-number.html 

BY WHAT AUTHORITY does this tyrannical federal monstrosity LOWER our standard of living?! Sure’n Hell NOT by We the People! @ 08.12.12

~Updated 08.30.12 to remove twitter embeds. Tweets are linked with the usual @ symbol.

“Govt is its own best customer.” ~tdv (@subconch)

Well that’s it. My child is officially a weapon, or as spin would have it, a licensed driver. Let us pray… (@subconch)

I am your posterity, and wondering what exactly you achieved by selling me out. (@subconch)
I am your posterity, and I hope you enjoyed the blessings of my liberty. (@subconch)

What happens ~after~ you have consumed all the wealth, and there is no more to take? (@subconch) #ows #democrat ~ #utopia #despotism

“The advocate for Socialism is the promoter of failure, but not his own.” ~tdv (@subconch)

Randoms: Irrational Tyranny, Patriotism, the Read

america, cronyism, favoritism, gender, issue, kids, liberty, obama, open mind, patriot, politician, power, race, santa, security, theft, truth, tyranny, waste, writing

“No means maybe, and maybe means you aren’t listening, Dad!” ~tdv (@subconch)

“A good read doesn’t know that it’s being read?” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Maybe it is time for Americans to be classified as their own Race of people, and finally shut down the whores of division and strife.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“The powers you support are not always in the hands of the people you support!” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Representatives: Upon which liberties shall you trample? Who shall gain your favor?” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Don’t you just love being told what to do, how to live, what to buy? Isn’t it great that your grandchildren are in debt before birth?” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Hey, has anybody ever seen Barack Obama in the snow? Is he the antithesis of Santa Claus?!? BHO don’t like snow! Hmm.” ~tdv (@subconch)
note: This quote was the final response to my 12 yr-old’s question “What’s the opposite of Santa Claus?” Scrooge and Grinch were not acceptable to her because they turned out okay in the end. Obama was selected for the lower standard of living he perpetuates, and the resulting fewer gifts under the tree… and he’s skinny, don’t wear red, and don’t like snow?

“Anything is possible to the unchecked hand of power. Never doubt its potential.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“…and King George was a lame usurper by today’s standard.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Issues are issued, responses programmed, become issues.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Imagine a time when most individuals labor more to secure their liberty than they do living it. Imagine they fail.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Maybe the question is not what liberty we will lose, but how much do we have left.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Just wondering, when we stop the liberal plunder, can we get the wealth back that they took, or does America have to earn it all over again?” ~tdv (@subconch)

“Tell a man he should know better, and he will maintain his ignorance despite you. Give him the simple truth, and he’ll still ignore it.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“If a woman uses her power to oppress one in favor of another, she is first a tyrant, and last, a woman.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“A mauve man who steals from your kids is at first a thief, and at last, mauve.” ~tdv (@subconch)

“A patriot is known only as a mere countryman, till you meet Liberty in the heart of an American.” ~tdv (@subconch)
