The economy is better. Jobs are preserved and there are new ones being generated. The Right Wing is on the attack and there is every indication they intend and have intended to do harm to the country. Americans are not safe under their guidance.
The FCC needs to examine the licenses of Talk Radio and pull some priviledges, because, what I heard today is simply unbelievably dangerous.
Let's start with some good news. It doesn't matter what indicator one looks at the USA GDP is up this quarter as compared to last quarter.
USA GDP
The Last Quarter of 2008 it fell (negative) at an astounding rate by 6.3% based on value of a 2000 USA Dollar.
At the close of the First Quarter of 2009 (ONLY 70 days after President Obama's inauguration) a definitive slowing of the recession was noted with a loss (negative) of 5.5% against a 2000 USA dollar.
The Obama Stimulus was more than necessary, it was vital and is having a significant impact. Not only that but we are also witnessing 'up spring' economies in Green Industries. The landscape of the American Economy is changing and it is taking place quickly. The Obama Stimulus was passed in February. In less than five months we are already seeing the NEW and vital focus to our economy and it is more than promising. The incredible aspect to this is there is far more to come. We are getting our country back on our terms. And what do we know about the USA economy, the wider the tax base the greater the income to the Treasury and the higher the capacity of the country to absorb debt. We are doing great.
Now, on to the Right Wing propaganda.
I regularly listen to the garbage that is put out by the Right Wing Talk Radio. However. When I listen it is through somewhat innocent ears. Those ears always figure these people actually have facts to back them up and they know somewhat of what they speak.I gave them validity in their point of view, but, that changed today. They have convinced me they are harmful to Americans and incite anger without regard to the dangers such advocacy brings. I am dead serious when I state, the FCC needs to roll back the lies that harm Americans through these programs and they should do it now.
Getting away from the hate they have of Americans by advocating the lack of affordable health care for a nation of beseiged by a system that doesn't work; I would like to mention a 'talk session' today that advocated complete and absolute danger to Americans without an apology for the hatred it brought of OUR government.
It was a conversation about 'The Stimulus.' It went like this. "I went to a website that lists all the SPENDING of the Obama Stimulus. In there was a half a million dollars for a traffic light near a military base. Can you imagine that? A traffic light near a military base and it cost nearly half a million to install it. The Obama people actually call this a stimulus. Tell me how that is a stimulus." (The commentator was dead serious.) He went on. "That is not a stimulus, that doesn't stimulate anything. If you want to stimulate an economy you remove traffic lights, not erect them. When a traffic light is removed it causes stimulus to insurance claims, body shops and all sorts of cash flow."
I thought it was a joke. So I listened for the punch line. There was no punch line. Basically, this commentator was stating the best stimulus for the USA economy was to remove taxes from government and place the money back in the pockets of Americans to gamble with their lives.
It was like a veil of 'imagineering' was lifted. The commentator simply continued with his anger and rhetoric and invited those listening to join in and they did. I could not believe my ears and all the pieces started to fall into place.
Reflecting on the years of Bush/Cheney there were issues of higher arsenic levels in drinking water, more and more loosening of controls of pharmaceuticals and safety margins for Americans, the issues surrounding Vioxx and all those so called miracle drugs, the ever escalating dangers in our food supply and the increasingly disasterous industry called health care.
The fuel to the fire of the housing industry, the loss of natural areas for the sake of building and I mean building anything. It was done with the idea that people were expendible in any aspect of life. That citizens weren't important, the money that freely flowed through an economy of NEGLECT was important. Guns. The militarization of citizens, the idea that bullet barrages by our police would ultimately be necessary in an 'armed' society all came into clear view.
The degradation of our public schools, the ever increasing gap between the wealthy and the middle class which was creating a ever greater of impoverishment; including the inability to attend colleges. The placement of jobs overseas to increase the bottom line of corporations while the USA Middle Class slid from sight. All the neglect that was legislated by Republicans during the Bush/Cheney years all made sense. It wasn't 'a plan' for a better more economically viable America, it was impoverishing the people so they would have to struggle and survive.
No more government for the wealthy to SUBSIDIZE, but, only a Middle Class sinking lower and lower in their ability to survive the day and turning to the only 'government' driven economy that was left; the military. I don't want to demonize the military. Every country needs one, but, only in 'balance' with a healthy economy, not as the 'only' economy. Why not a forever war if that is all that was going to be subsidized by the government? Why not be the country that was attempting to destroy borders of other countries for their natural resources? I mean why not?
The point is that when the Right Wing 'rants' about how "W"rong the Obama Administrative is, they are simply ranting because they have lost control over their ability to 'decentralize' government to return money to their coffers. Their ranting has no basis in truth, it has no viability and it harms the American people.
The darnest thing is that they really do hate us. They really do hate the Americans that believe taxes are necessary, a healthy economy is one that is regulated to support the Middle Class and uplift those in poverty. They simply hate us.
The FCC needs to begin to eliminate the media of hate that propagates fear in order to maintain control. When a public is fearful of anything INCLUDING 'change' it brings them to the side of those that see the same 'fear' as legitimate and foster it for their own gain. There should be no media service that allows the degradation of government and endangers the public.It was the sorriest broadcast I think I ever heard. Wow. Are my blinders off and I see no merit to their programming, at all, anymore. It is a darn shame the only way an opposing political party can exist is by 'imagineering' a Golden Ring on a Merry-Go-Round of fear, progagated by hate.
