Random Thoughts

So here I sit, wondering just what is really going on. I mean lets put it this way, do you ever think about the big picture and what we know that the government doesn't want us to know? I mean the more research I do on the web, the more I see we are getting ready to repeat history- again. Meaning the last time we were in this situation was quite a few years ago. Hoover was dealing with the first round of Black Monday, and the nation voted for change in the name of Mr Roosevelt. What he did was doubled down on what Hoover started.

That wound up being a great short term fix, but not something that would last. That also started the trend that has now spread to the masses. And that is to spend more than what we have, afterall- look at our national debt and tell me that it hasn't magnified. I mean here we are promising all this money to other nations, some industries, and even to our financial institutions. I mean most of these people and companies are in the spot they are because they have not been efficient or effective in their practices. On one hand the best thing the government could do to rectify the situation is not bail out the industries. At the same time that is also the worst thing they could do for the situation.

But I still feel that they need to make those that ran these companies into the ground, also responsible for there part in it as well. I mean you have companies that were struggling to cut a profit, but the top execs recieved about 10% of the raw income as pay and benefits. I understand paying someone that is effective at their job, but the companies have went down the toilet. So obviously they have not been effective in what they are doing. So lets make them pay for the lack of job performance by helping them realize where they have failed.

It still amazes me to boot that after America voted for change, the first thing that our soon to be president has done is back down from what he said he was going to do when he was campaigning. So between this and the way our government is giving money we don't even have to everyone- how are we supposed to have faith in our government? I mean if O'Bama gets his way and they repeal the law that allows the media to speak freely- that will also limit what we can blog here as well. I know they claim that wont happen, but in fact they will do it- he has already said as much.

So if you look at it from another point of view lets go look at Germany pre World War 2. First thing Hitler did was get elected, then he restricted free speech then he took away guns. Am I the only one seeing a pattern on this one??? I pray I am wrong, but if not then I will do what I have to for survival.
