Bush - we're broke

Bush has just outlined that he would like $70 billion dollars for the war next year and signed a contract to give global food aid in the amount of $770 million due to higher food prices, mostly to Africa.

Bush, with the aid of the Federal Reserve, is breaking our American dollar, our economy, and our backs. The Federal Reserve continues to print up money that does not exist and the American people get to pay the interest on this money that the government borrowed.

The Federal Reserve is not “federal” at all, but a privately owned bank that Woodrow Wilson regrettably endorsed during his presidency in 1913. I do not find the Great Depression suffered in the 1930’s ironic. And, unfortunately, there is always a possibility for another one. Americans, as a whole, live on credit just like their government, away from the logical principles of only spending what you have and delaying gratification for what you want.

Our country is paying the price and we have to pray that we do not further lose our national sovereignty over it. Google: Amero dollar and North American Union. As we get our fix at Wal Mart, or watch the evening sports, our country is going in a direction that only an asleep populace would allow. It takes awakened people to change a molded course.

Read Ron Paul’s “The Revolution: A Manifesto,” principles this country has lost: individual liberty, sound money, the Constitution, and the foreign policy of the Founding Fathers.
