Digging Deeper Holes

Don't you love it when the government continues to get it wrong? Too much debt is one of the problems that plagues many small businesses yet, the current administration feels that it must get them in deeper through government guarantees and other lending mechanisms. What is really needed is for the government to remove some of the regulatory burden and reduce their taxes. That will free their money to invest in their business.

If the problem is cash flow, what good will new borrowing do? Let small businesses keep more of their cash and they will figure a way to survive.

Tea-bags and Left Turns

How far left before the American people wake up and say enough? The few limitations we have on abortions, the right to own firearms, churches, you name it, it's is under attack right now.

A modern tea-bag protest has been proposed. On April 1st everyone is supposed to send a tea-bag to the White House in protest against the bailout plan. If only on the 1st we would find out that it was all one big "April Fool's" joke I'd be happy. I hate to waste a good tea bag.

Just Thinking....

The Democrat's Stimulus Plan makes me think:

  • Allegiance can sometimes be acquired through the "beneficence" of the giver.
  • Beneficiaries of largesse are often lazy or crooked.
  • That's my money they're handing out in order to buy power.

We have sold our country.

Since when have we become beggars??? -- as in, "Please buy our T-Bills and Bonds, we're broke."

It is hard not to be negative.....
