Thanks for the input.
Did you read my first sentence in my post that you quoted? It says, "I am not anti-government".

I am a free man and I don't need a big daddy.edit on 1-8-2011 by Redwookieaz because: (no reason given)
Also I'm not afraid of guys wandering in a desert halfway around the world. They probably wouldn't hate us so much if we weren't bombing the crap out of them and invading their countries.
No sir, I'm afraid of the terrorists that are right here holding public office.

Cloward-Piven Paradise Now? By Jeannie DeAngelis Combine class warfare, demonizing the rich, getting as many people onto the welfare rolls as possible, and pushing the economic system to collapse and you have a flawless formula for Cloward-Piven 2.0 -- and a vehicle that ensures Obama remains in power.
Cloward-Piven is a much talked-about strategy proposed in the mid-1960's by two Columbia University sociology professors named Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. The Cloward-Piven approach was sometimes referred to as the "crisis strategy," which they believed were a means to "end poverty." The premise of the Cloward-Piven collective/anti-capitalist gospel decried "individual mobility and achievement," celebrated organized labor, fostered the principle that "if each finally found himself in the same relative economic relationship to his fellows ... all were infinitely better off."
The duo taught that if you flooded the welfare rolls and bankrupted the cities and ultimately the nation, it would foster economic collapse, which would lead to political turmoil so severe that socialism would be accepted as a fix to an out-of-control set of circumstances.

Sounds good doesn't it? Until you realize the strings that come with it.
The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation;
Gov will decide where you work
The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation;
Gov decides what your salary will be
The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return that will give him and his family a decent living;
Gov will tell you what you can raise
The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home or abroad;
Gov will decide how much profit you can make
The right of every family to a decent home;
Gov will decide where you live
The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health;
Gov will mandate what is considered adequate
The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident and unemployment;
Gov will decide how much you get during retirement (forget 401k's)
The right to a good education.
Gov will decide what you study in school.
That's all speculation and fear mongering. You have no clue about any of that. You've taken the wost case scenario and applied to every new right! That is truly revealing...
Much like one of the posters said above, this would have to approved by congress, and only a congress of our worst nightmares would vote in the terrible ideas you just represented.
If you look back through history (thousands of years), you can clearly see that life gets better and better (especially when considering social issues) so please forgive me if I steer away from the "glass is half empty" perception and go with a much more positive outlook.

Merely a ruse.

So, to recap, Obama is a radical leftist who is in cahoots with the Union Busters and the Military industrial Complex, and the fact that he hasn't gotten around to do anything even closely resembling 'leftist' policy is because he's still hiding his true intent?
SO, when do we get this' radical leftist' policy and stuff?

..................Back to the $2 Trillion that Obama is being handed. I honestly think that most people in this country have no understanding of simple counting numbers. Do you not understand how much a trillion is? Where do you think this money is going to come from -- who has two trillion dollars to loan us?
China? Nope. Not even close. China's entire GDP is only $6 Trillion. Do you honestly think that China is going to loan us one third of their total annual economic production? China was a huge creditor to us back when $100 Billion was considered a staggeringly large amount of money - which was four years ago. Now $100 Billion is literally a rounding error. Do you realize that there are only a handful of nations of this planet that even have a GDP in excess of $2 Trillion? If these countries loaned us every penny of their GDP, it wouldn't even be $2 Trillion: Canada ($1.57 T) India ($1.54 T) Russia ($1.46 T)
Are you starting to understand the scope of what we are talking about now? Obama is going to embezzle considerably more than the entire economic output of Canada, India or Russia to his cronies before the 2012 election -- and that is just counting this round of spending. This doesn't include the other $5 Trillion he has already burned through since 2009. China is not going to lend us this money because they simply don't have anything close to that much money to lend. This $2 Trillion is going to come from the Federal Reserve. Where is the Federal Reserve going to get $2 Trillion?
They are going to print it out of thin air. We are in the midst of the largest currency debasement ever seen in human history. There is only one result that can come of currency debasement: hyperinflation and total economic and societal collapse.
