Apology to future generations of Americans for Obamacare (1 of 2)

4:18 pm in Uncategorized by Don Mashak

SCOTUS Chief Justice Humpty Dumpty Roberts

(Sorry, I was unable to get this article to all 300 blogs and Social sites that I wanted to before the end of the 4th of July Weekend due to health and other issues)

This 4th of July and 4th of July weekend, our generation celebrates
the inspired bold acts and sacrifices of our Founding Fathers. Their
Declaration of Independence from the tyrannical aristocracy of England
gave rise to our great nation. This same generation of Americans went on
to draft our Constitution and Bill of Rights.

These documents
were based the Principles of Natural Law developed during the
Enlightenment and structured in such a way to attempt to make it
difficult from WE THE PEOPLE from being subjected to unrestrained
tyranny ever again. WE THE PEOPLE became Citizens instead of subjects.
Elected officials would be known as Public Servants, and WE THE PEOPLE
were to be the country’s sovereigns. Those inspired bold acts and
sacrifices along with the brilliantly crafted Constitution and Bill of
Rights bestowed upon WE THE PEOPLE, the freedoms and prosperity we have
enjoyed for 236 years.

At the same time, our Founding Fathers
vigorously warned us of the precarious nature of Liberty. Perhaps that
warning is best remembered in Benjamin Franklin’s words as he was
leaving the Constitutional Convention. In response to being asked “What
type of Government have you given us?” Franklin responded:

A Republic, if you can keep it!

WE
THE PEOPLE should be ever mindful of the precious blood and lives of
the Founding Generation that our Freedoms and Country were the fruit of
lest we forget or betray that generation’s great personal sacrifices.

It
seems fitting, that this Fourth of July, 2012, someone of our
generation should apologize to the future generations of Americans for
our generation failing to heed the Founding generations warnings to be
vigilant in the defense of our liberty. WE THE PEOPLE have not performed
the inspired bold acts nor suffered the hardships nor made the
sacrifices necessary to preserve the prosperity and liberties our
Founding Fathers bestowed upon our own and previous generations of
Americans through their sacrifices in blood and lives.

Some of
this writer’s generation of Americans was willing to trade Liberty for
security. Other Citizens were too busy to be bothered. Still others
wanted just to “go along to get along” so they could just live their own
lives and avoid suffering reprisals for making anyone unhappy with
them. Some were not willing to accept the potential risk and
retaliation for daring to challenge the systemic corruption of our time.
And some of this writer’s generation, including this writer himself,
let others (clandestinely and/or accidently) ineffectively lead and/or
mislead the opposition to Obamacare into the complacency with
suggestions of almost certain victory.
And some, like this writer
himself, simply did not exert the necessary educational and persuasive
effort to prevail.

Before we go further, it is often said that
history is written by the winners. This apology is written from the
perspective of those that lost the fight to prevent socialized medicine
from being inflicted on America.
Through this writing, this writer
hopes to reanimate this generation to act like freemen and demand
freedom, to embrace the rigors of liberty, to cast off the duplicitous
tyranny that has befallen us and re-inhabit the Vision the Founding
Fathers had for this County.

APOLOGY

With
so many of this writer’s generation of writer’s openly professing how
much they love their children and how much they do and would sacrifice
for them, WE THE PEOPLE would be remiss to not take the blame and
apologize to future generations of Americans for inflicting Obamacare
upon them. The wide ranging detrimental effects Obamacare will inflict
on our country and future generations of Americans will be devastating
and irreversible and may well result in the complete and/or effective
demise of the USA as our generation now knows it.

Therefore,
before this writer says anything more, I apologize and accept total
personal responsibility for not working hard enough to educate my fellow
citizens as to why Obamacare will endanger our country, how it will
inflict great harm on future generations of Americans, and why,
therefore, it must not be made law.

However, before we begin with
the reasons and consequences requiring an apology to future generations
of Americans, let’s take a step back. Let us examine possible events
that might negate and/or mitigate the disastrous effects of Obamacare
between the writing of this article and its being read by future
generations.

EVENTS THAT COULD NEGATE AND/OR MITIGAGE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF OBAMACARE

As
the future consequences of Obamacare cannot be known with absolute
certainty, this writer would be remiss if he did not first address
events that could negate and/or mitigate this writer’s posited
consequences of Obamacare.

Thank you, my fellow citizens, for taking your valuable time to read and reflect upon what is written here.

Please join with me in mutually pledging to each other and our fellow
citizens our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor to our mutual
endeavors of restoring liberty and economic opportunity to WE THE PEOPLE
as our Founding Fathers envisioned and intended. [Last Paragraph,

Ron Paul – Texan Vote’m: After kicking the tires, this voter is “All In”

7:50 pm in Uncategorized by Don Mashak

PROLOGUE

Quite simply, we are going to have some fun exposing the “Con Job” that our American elections have become. Together we are going to make common sense out of the deliberate confusion that the 2 major political parties and major media have created around previous elections. By the end of our conversation, you should realize that you should simply cast your vote in accordance with your own “best interests”. Hopefully, you will realize that this is less my endorsement of Ron Paul than it is your very own endorsement of Ron Paul. And we will accomplish all of this in 12 fun and easily understood sections:

1) “All In”?;
2) Prologue;
3) Donald Trump Endorsement;
4) Donald Trump, The Used Car Salesman;
5) Whose decision should you value in making your voting decision?;
6) Counter-Intuitive Tire Kicking;
7) Demonizing and Discrediting the voices of dissent;
8) No perfect Candidate;
9) Jobs, Jobs, Jobs;
10) The Man in the Arena;
11) Settling on a Candidate;
12) I’m All-in!

2) “ALL IN”?

In the card game, Texas Hold’em, “all in” refers to betting the last of your chips/money. http://bit.ly/w5ukXM “All in” is most often invoked by a player who has been on a losing streak and has depleted most of their resources. When a good hand has finally been dealt and the odds indicate it is likely winner the player declares “All In” and bets all of their remaining chips.

This scenario seems to be an apt analogy for the situation we voters find ourselves in this 2012 election. But before I continue with that analogy, let’s talk a little bit about Donald Trump.

3) DONALD TRUMP’s ENDORSEMENT

Recently I heard that Donald Trump was endorsing Mitt Romney. And I thought to myself, so what? Donald Trump is most likely going to endorse a candidate that embraces the concerns of millionaires and reality show executives. I am neither a millionaire nor a reality show executive. So, why do I care who Donald Trump endorses? Donald Trump, as far as I am concerned, you and your endorsement are fired!

But for some reason, the major media considers Donald Trump’s endorsement newsworthy. Perhaps the major media thinks this next presidential election should be like a Junior High Student Council election – A simple popularity contest with few consequences for choosing poorly? I don’t share that perspective.

And then I thought; perhaps the major media and the political parties have framed and confused the elections in such a way that the candidate a person should select to vote for is not obvious. Perhaps the average American is not aware that the propaganda techniques of Edward Bernays are being used upon them to subvert their individual will? (I often advise my fellow citizens that they can’t protect themselves, their perspective of reality nor their family from our Government if they don’t know about Edward Bernays http://bit.ly/nY9BjW)

Along those lines, my thoughts go to those frazzled rank and file Americans who are busy raising their families and earning money to pay taxes.

“It is also in the interests of a tyrant to keep his people poor, so that they may not be able to afford the cost of protecting themselves by arms and be so occupied with their daily tasks that they have no time for rebellion.”

Aristotle in Politics, J. Sinclair translation, pg. 226, 1962 http://bit.ly/pAI8O0

Further, I am concerned for the newest voters who may not know the “ins and outs” of “kicking the tires” on their first presidential election.

“Children should be educated and instructed in the principles of freedom.”
John Adams

And I am also concerned for our more Seasoned Citizens that dutifully contributed to Social Security and other programs but were lied to by the politicians who frittered away the funds that were supposed to be in the lockbox.

“WE THE PEOPLE have an obligation to keep the promises that were made to previous generations…

…I personally believe if our fiscal problems can’t be solved without cutting benefits to those already retired and retiring within 10 years, all congresspersons who voted yes on budgets which included SS and Medicare taxes in the general fund should be charged with fraud and/or treason and forfeit all of their retirement benefits to fund the now unfunded Social Security and Medicare Liabilities.”

Don Mashak

I feel a duty to sort out the deliberate confusion of this election for my fellow rank and file citizens who may be unaware, frazzled and worn out. I will start out by telling them that the endorsement of Mitt Romney by Donald Trump should mean nothing to them.

4) DONALD TRUMP, THE USED CAR SALESMEN

For you less seasoned citizens, may I first suggest….

Next, it has came to this author’s attention that many local papers will not run letters to the editor, Op Ed pieces and articles that do not conform to the perspective of the local “Powers that be”. If you have a letter to the editor that relates to this article, feel free to post it as a comment, noting that the local news source refused to run it. As long as it conforms with general decorum and is plausible, very rarely will we refuse to publish it. If you have unrelated subject matter and/or video and/or audio that you believe we would be interested in based (based on our prior articles), email it here .Send video/audio in common Internet formats or with Youtube.com links. Do not send video in Public Access TV and/or Cable formats. Our philosophy is that more open public dialogue is better than less public dialogue.

Why You Must Go To Your Caucus This Year!

8:56 pm in Uncategorized by Don Mashak

[Unless you are a political party hack, then you can stay home]

Caucuses are the smallest, most grassroots meetings of the political party system.

 

This is the year you must go to your caucus, regardless of your political party preference.

Based on the State of the Nation, it should be clear that the people that have been attending the past caucuses haven’t made the best decisions.

In Minnesota, your caucus date is Tuesday, February 7, 2012.
If you live in a different state, Click here to find your Caucus/Primary Date – 2012 Full Primary/Caucus Calendar http://bit.ly/ysETxM

For far too long now, we rank and file Americans have dutifully voted for the candidates of our respective political parties. WE THE PEOPLE have chosen and remained loyal to our respective political parties because we believed in our respective party’s platform and were persuaded by the promises of our political party candidates before each election.

But the reality is that the day after the election, our elected officials and political parties sell their votes to the highest bidder. Our elected official’s votes are not cast in the best interests of their constituents but rather based on who gives the biggest campaign contributions and/or kickbacks…

Our Elected no longer are content to represent WE THE PEOPLE. They now want to manage, manipulate and fleece us like livestock. (If you want to better understand how your Government manages and manipulates you need to learn about Edward Bernays. You cannot protect yourself, your perspective of reality nor your family from your Government if you don’t know about Edward Bernays http://bit.ly/nY9BjW) They manage and manipulate us to get our votes and to attempt to keep us from being upset by their betrayals of our trust.

Yet somehow these incumbents have convinced WE THE PEOPLE, their constituents, to keep reelecting them.

WHERE ARE WE AT?

But now, the USA is on the brink of economic and moral collapse.

Most Economists agree no nation’s debts should exceed 60% of Gross Domestic Product GDP & never exceed 90%. US is at 105% & rising http://bit.ly/yCFnHs
http://bit.ly/wFNtOV

“In about 20 years, the corrupt incumbent ruling class took the US from undisputed world Super Power to the brink of collapse.”Don Mashak, the Cynical Patriot

Why Robert Redford won’t run for public office http://bit.ly/sSy66m

USA Fear of Big Government at Near-Record Level http://bit.ly/urMZBb

WE THE PEOPLE can no longer afford to be blindly loyal to our political parties and political party leaders. Things must change or we will forever lose our freedoms and standard of living.

Your politicians and the major media are not being truthful with you, my fellow citizens. Our Country is on the brink of collapse. Just because they are not printing it as a headline each day and down play it in the presidential debates, does not mean that crisis is not imminently upon us.
