Things we can and can't afford

[OnePercenter]

Thanks to an insane government run by criminals.

When will Americans wake up to the fraud being perpetrated on them?

Don't forget billions and billions in tax cuts for folks who already have most of the money.

That would be me.

"Every municipal and state Anti-Corruption Act creates common-sense ethics, conflict-of-interest, transparency, and campaign finance laws. State Acts create the opportunity for federal candidates from that state to campaign on the anti-corruption platform – accountable to their constituents, not special interests."
Here's how we fix corruption in America.

We Can Criminalize Corruption by Passing This Law.

It won't happen unless you have more political parties with more oversight and actual choice at the ballot box. FPTP just won't do that.

Proportional representation isn't practical in a nation as large as ours, there aren't enough seats to accommodate such a system. Each region is allotted a seat for representation. The only type of electoral reform that would be feasible to include smaller parties would be instant run off voting.

You can't pool seats, and give a reserved seat for a rural district to an urban district just so you can make a proportional rep. system scheme work, it would be unfair to the interests of both urban and rural voters.

On top of that, if you cared to watch the video, it clearly stated that the mechanism through which they have intended to accomplish this is through ballot initiative, they intend to by pass all parties. They recognize that all politicians, no matter the party, have no incentive to introduce these reforms. The law to end corruption needs to be passed directly by the people.

The only problem?

It still needs to be enforced by politicians and courts.



As we are seeing right now in the battle between the Deep State and the Public State, there has never been any guarantee that the politicians, the bureaucracy will ever enforce the laws or follow them. Or indeed that the fourth estate will honestly report truthfully about what is going on.

MisterBeale is self identifying his own mistakes with Obama, who in fact was no warmonger and was quite honest about his priorities of infrastructure, health care, and education.

But he did nothing for infrastructure or education and his healthcare was a disaster.

The Great Obama had a trillion dollar infrastructure and jobs bill that Republicans blocked

In education, he reformed student loans and provided more money to preschool

Obamacare succeeded and will continue to succeed. Republican attempts to replace it were a disaster

Oh yeah the shovel ready jobs and health care that depended on forcing young healthy people to buy in to support everyone else.

All health insurance depends on healthy people to break even

This country should have cradle to grave health insurance

Wall Street bailouts didn't require $12.8 trillion in spending.
Oil companies pay billions in taxes, they don't get subsidies.

If our country is wealthy enough to give a $1.5 trillion tax cut to billionaires we should be able to afford anything

That is what we need.....ONE card that serves all purposes

Drivers license, credit card, health insurance card, voter ID, passport, library card, Starbucks frequent buyer card......anything you want it to be

Imagine only needing one card in your wallet

Because your "trust" pays single digit taxes to the Feds.
You never did explain why your Nevada corporation helps you pay less.

Not really applicable.

Thomas Jefferson said that “banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies” and that “if the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks . . . will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”

President Franklin D. Roosevelt wrote to Col. House that “the real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the larger centers has owned the Government ever since the days of Andrew Jackson.”

Bankers control the government and bankers love war.
