I'm Scared: Obama's Plan Won't Work

President Obama is planning to spend $75 billion to prevent up to 9 million Americans from loosing their homes. This is yet another show of arrogance from our leader, and a "plan" that is not very well thought out. He thinks that he is the one that can "save" America.

Hey, I've got news for you buddy, these people can't be saved. You see, when you buy a home, the first thing everyone must do is honestly prove to themselves that they have a plan to repay the loan. These people bought homes without any plan of repayment.

In general, they are not experiencing emergency setbacks, they are experiencing stupidity and GREED. These people gambled that the housing market would keep appreciating and they took out loans that they never intended to repay. What's worse is the government loosened the banking regulations that allowed them to do it.

So now, President Obama wants to help these people out by restructuring their loans. Guess what? These people don't have a shred of financial responsibility and absolutely deserve to loose their homes. They deserve to be tenants, and the more financially conservative investors deserve to buy their homes at a deep discount. And while I'm at it, the banks that lent the money to these morons, deserve to go out of business.

President Obama, quit trying to save those that can't be saved. No they can't!

Timberland Regional Library New Tax Failing

The Timberland Regional Library levy-LID-lift new tax measure is failing, and looks like it will fail. I think it is the beginning of a message that government needs to get itself in order. Stop trying to tax us. It is a message to manage your budget. Thanks voters.

Another TAX Disguised as Helping Children (D)

Senator Rodney Tom (D) is proposing a $1.00 per pack cigarette tax saying he wants to make cigarettes so expensive that high school kids can't afford them.

Who is going to challenge that idea? He's saving the kids right? Another do-gooder bleeding heart liberal that thinks he is smarter than the kid's parents and government needs to step in and help these poor misguided high school students.

It's just another tax. It's just another way that the Democrats want to get their grubby hands on your money.

If Senator Tom is really serious about doing what he says, then impose a minimum price that cigarettes can be sold for and remove all taxes. So if you think High school students can't afford $7.00 per pack then pass legislation that mandates a pack of cigarettes must be sold for a minimum of $7.00 and remove your tax.

And one last word for you Senator Tom: the public does not need to be saved by you. We will do just fine when you get out of our lives. No saving needed here.
