National ID Card Not Smart

Roosh: It’s Time You Reconsider the Idea of Retirement

by DC Handgun Info March 9, 2010 DC Handgun Info

In the D.C. area, there are zillions of FedGov workers, both on the job and retired. They may be able to hang onto their pensions (including many who have a prior military pension). But for folks in the private sector, like your author, it’s long been "Time You Reconsider the Idea of Retirement." Here’s the first part:

Unfortunately I don’t think you’re going to be able to stop working when you’re 60-years-old and then live off the fat of the land until you die. Please consider the following questions:

 

Will the dollar be seriously devalued in our lifetimes?

Will Social Security and Medicare survive?

Ummm, yeah… about that transparency…

by Nicki March 9, 2010 The Liberty Zone

OK, seriously.  I’d like to know who the blazing fuck allowed Skelepelosi in a leadership position!  She’s got to be the most obviously stupid piece of meat on the planet



I’ll get you my pretty!  And your little dog too!

The leader of Teh Most Transparent ™, Teh Most Ethical ™, Teh Most Virtuous Congress EVAH is now telling us the People, “Hey! Fuck you! You have no right to know what the bill that essentially facilitates government control over a large sector of America’s economy says. We’re smarter than you, so you don’t need to worry about it. Just let us pass it, and we’ll tell you… when it’s too late!”


“You’ve heard about the controversies within the bill, the process
about the bill, one or the other.  But I don’t know if you have heard
that it is legislation for the future, not just about health care for
America, but about a healthier America, where preventive care is not
something that you have to pay a deductible for or out of pocket. 
Prevention, prevention, prevention—it’s about diet, not diabetes. It’s
going to be very, very exciting. 

“But we have to pass the
bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the
controversy.  Furthermore, we believe that health care reform, again I
said at the beginning of my remarks, that we sent the three pillars
that the President’s economic stabilization and job creation
initiatives were education and innovation—innovation begins in the
classroom—clean energy and climate, addressing the climate issues in an
innovative way to keep us number one and competitive in the world with
the new technology, and the third, first among equals I may say, is
health care, health insurance reform.  Health insurance reform is about
jobs.  This legislation alone will create 4 million jobs, about 400,000
jobs very soon.

Lemme axe you this, princess… if this is such a healthy piece of legislation (no pun intended), why is it that Teh Won needs to bribe and cajole in order to get support from his own party members for this monstrosity of a bill?!  Why give away federal bench appointments to siblings of Democrats leaning toward “No” on this bill?  Why dangle tasty federal jobs in front of challengers to the Democratic incumbents who might jeopardize the majority vote?

Oh, yeah… and the 4 million jobs claim?  Based on a study by the Center for American Progress.  Kind of asking Rosie O’Donnell to study donuts.  Bias?  What bias?  What kind of jobs would be “created” by the expansion of government?  Government jobs.  At the expense of what?  The private sector, stupid!  And since most provisions wouldn’t kick in for another four years anyway, someone want to explain to me how 400,000 jobs would be created immediately (or as she modified it recently, “very soon”)?

In an economy where unemployment is the primary concern for many Americans, a bill that reforms our allegedly broken health care system and supposedly creates jobs at the same time should be a no-brainer, right?  So why is it that Democrats are abandoning ship like fatalistic rats?

Seriously, folks.  What kind of fucktards elected this broad?
