The Taxation and Economy of the United States; go hand in hand. The Higher the taxes and the more involved the government the less productive the economy, and the lower the taxes and less involved the government the more productive the economy. This theory has been proven time and time again. The conservative: TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS- Conservative economics are based largely on the free market principles, and under Ronald Reagan, these principles created 30 trillion dollars and 43 million jobs over 25 years of strong economic growth. In 1981, the country had double digit unemployment, interest rates and inflation rates. President Ronald Reagan began the road to economic recovery, threw the Recovery Tax Act. This act cut 25% from the federal income tax in each bracket over a 3 year period and indexed the rates against inflation to prevent increases. He also began a 10% Investment Tax Credit, which led to capital formation on a grand scale. Once the credits were in full scale, the 30 year mortgage rates dropped from 18% in 1981 to 8% in 1987, inflation dropped 9.4% in 8 years and unemployment was cut nearly in half from 10% in 1982 to 5.5% in 1989. Proving that trickledown economics works with less government involvement and lower taxes.

Now for The Liberal/Statist: TRICKLE UP POVERTY-The Liberal/Statist bases its economic principles on Government growth, even the current White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel, said " we cannot let this economic tragedy go to waste" referring to taking advantage of the situation and pushing through huge spending programs such as the 787 billion dollar Pork Bill, stimulus package (without even 1 person reading the almost 1100 pages and zero transparency) and the TARP Bill started under the Bush administration and Perfected under the Obama administration.. To date the Liberals have spent hundreds of billions of dollars on wasteful projects and building the federal government to the monstrosity it is today, and will be doubled under the Obama administration. The Liberals are nationalizing the banking, housing, auto, and the health care industries. Soon you will be able to finance your Obama mobile threw Barney Bank.

These unconstitutional statist acts began in 1928, during a recession and struggling housing market the Federal Reserve began cutting the money supply to banks by increasing the discount rate from 3.5% to 6% over an 8 month period until August 1929. In October 1929 over a 3 day period the stock market crashed, start of the Great Depression. In June of 1930, congress and Pres. Herbert Hoover passed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, resulting in high tariffs on all imported produce and goods, setting off an international trade war that blocked in the exportation of domestic products to foreign markets. In 1930 and 1931 Government spending soared, congress had established the Reconstruction Finance Corporation, distributing hundreds of millions of dollars to businesses. In 1932 Hoover signed the Revenue Act- the largest peacetime tax increase in history, jumping the top bracket from 24% to 63%. Efforts by the government to limit the recession were disastrous. Then in 1933 FDR twice raised taxes again for the top bracket to 79% then to 90% , all while imposing the UNCONSTITUTIONAL, National Industrial Recovery Act. This act forced manufacturing industries into government control, which dictated production and pricing standards covering 2 million employers and 22 million workers. Industrial production dropped 25% percent over a 6 month span, before the act was revoked by the Supreme Court.

Soon following FDR began the Civil Works Administration and the Works Progress Administration (building infrastructure) putting the unemployed to work, but the programs were full of corruption and greed. The evidence shows the government was pushing out the private sector, for every government job created; half a private sector job was lost. This enormous government spending went on for years, prolonging the depression and economic despair for millions of Americans. FDR's treasury secretary at the time, Henry Morgenthau, Jr., wrote “we have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work...We have never made good on our promises... I say after 8 years of this Administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started...and an enormous debt to boot!" At no time under FDR did unemployment drop below 14%, and according to an extensive 2004 study done by UCLA economist Harold L. Cole and Lee E. Ohanian, the “ill-conceived stimulus policies" extended the Depression by 7 years. This meaning the Great Depression would have ended in 1936 instead of 1943. Yet, even after this disaster, the Obama administration is still trying to borrow us out of debt, nationalizing our banks, our health care and our industry.... The Obama administration is full of intelligent individuals, I’m sure they know history, I’m sure they understand what their policies will do to our economy.

So then why are they still following through with these destructive acts, spending more money in their 1st 100 days than was spent on all of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and Hurricane Katrina combined? THE ANSWER IS: too destroy Capitalism, remove the United States from the status of world superpower and imperialistic state, to spread its wealth among the country and the world, and too even the playing field in hopes of a global economy. For those of you, who think that I must be wrong, look at Obama's nominee for the State Departments top Lawyer, Harold Hongju Koh, who believes that transnational law trumps constitutional rights? How about his World Apology Tour, were he went to Europe, Latin America, Middle East, and Asia, apologizing for America's arrogance. While on the tour he bowed to Muslim Kings; met and talked with dictators such as the Castro brothers in Cuba, even meeting with Hugo Chavez, not once but twice and accepted Chavez book which criticizes the United States for its imperialistic views. He has ask the Iranian Pres. Mahmud Ahmadinejad to meet with him and have 1on1 talks, yet he has refused to meet and talk with the new Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu. In 2007, Barak Obama explained his views to the Chicago Council on Global Affairs:

America must lead by reaching out to all those living disconnected lives of despair in the world's forgotten corners-because while there will always be those who succumb to hate and strap bombs to their bodies, there are millions more who want to take another path- who want our beacon of hope to shine its light their way... ...Delivering on these UNIVERSAL aspirations requires basic sustenance like food and clean water; medicine and shelter. It also requires a society that is supported by the pillars of a sustainable democracy- a strong legislature, an independent judiciary, the rule of law, a vibrant civil society, a free press, and an honest police force. It requires building the capacity of the world's weakest states and providing them what they need to reduce poverty, build healthy and educated communities, develop markets and generate wealth.

So i guess what he is saying, is that government would not only require us to pay for our own country and it's needs, but it would require us to pay for providing all other countries in need with the same standards of living. The Obama administration is currently considering entering the United States into International treaties, such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, Kyoto Protocol on climate change and the International Criminal Court. In each of these we would be governed by international bureaucracies, that do not have the preservation and improvement of the American society in mind. Thus establishing the imagined global society, providing all with a global citizenship. In this way the statist speaks not of One National Under God but as one nation among many. Rather than to maintain our superpower status and act on it own best interest, the United States should relinquish its hard-earned position in favor of multilateral power sharing and conduct foreign policy- including decisions about military action in its own defense- through coalitions and international organizations. In this way, America's interest are subsumed and contained by the supposed interest of the whole. This is shown by the closing of Guantanamo Bay, at no time in history have Terrorist been considered equivalent to regular Armed Forces. But the Obama Administration has granted these terrorist new rights, as in allowing them to be prosecuted in our judicial system ( you know the one we pay for out of our tax dollars) even releasing them back into society with payment of money for their time and providing them with the protection of the Geneva Conventions, which specifically excludes them as they are not of regular militia and have waged war illegally. This makes their barbarism more difficult to stop and their schemes more difficult to uncover, is not morally defensible. How does this Help America?

Why not enact the Fair Tax, where every American could keep 100% of their pay check, proving a strong economy based on capital and not credit, allowing citizens to afford health care through the private sector. Allowing businesses to keep the 35% tax that they now pay to government, so as they can provide health care and retirement options to employees. This would get rid of the Capital Gains tax, encouraging more investment into the economy, allowing all individuals to save for their own retirement and keep 100% of what they have set aside and made, relieving the Social Security Burden Bestowed upon Us. Thus providing a steady demand, forcing companies to employ more individuals to keep up, relieving the Welfare and Unemployment Burdens Bestowed Upon Us, and these individuals would keep 100% of their pay, have health care, and put further demand to the economy. All while the government is receiving 23% tax of every dollar spent, thus every American both Legal and Illegal, Rich and Poor and of every Race will pay taxes without the burden of paying taxes. This sounds too good to be true right.... The government hates it, this would put the power back to the people. We no longer could be Force Taxed for the purpose of wealth distribution, and separated into the "Evil Rich" or the "Needy Poor", where we have been punished for being successful , or preyed upon for not. When I say preyed upon, i mean that the big government concept of the statist democrat, it is to have as many people need the government to survive and to provide basic needs as possible. These people will always vote for the hand that feeds them, thus keeping the statists in power.

The STATIST is keeping you down, not the rich, not another race, not the conservative.... THE STATIST -THE LIBERALS-THE DEMOCRATS... They have done this so well over the last century we have forgotten how to fend for our own, how to care for our family, how to maintain our faith, and forgotten the ideas and values this great nation was built upon. This has led us to a nation of crime and poverty, of atheist and of the new society of NON-PRODUCERS. This new society of NON-PRODUCERS, are not unintelligent nor are they of poor health and mind, but they are survivors. Survivors on the fruits of other's labor, they choose not to become educated, they choose not to provide for themselves, they choose not to provide for their family, and they choose not to become fruit bearing , law abiding citizens of society. These NON-PRODUCERS, have figured out how to squeeze every last dime out of the pockets of the worker. They know the ins and outs of the system, they know that by not providing for their family they can sell their food stamps to corrupt businesses for 50 cents on the dollar, allowing money for drugs, cigarettes, and alcohol. They know that Medicare and Medicaid will not pay for certain non-emergency procedures, so they fill our hospital emergency rooms with an array of non-emergency ailments, keeping those who require attention waiting for hours to be seen. They have taught this to the next generation, and they teach it to the next, and so on, until they know no life any other way, feeding into the STATIST plans perfectly, always providing them with a new generation of "Needy Poor".

Another way the statist has pushed to build its support structure is the immigration policy or lack thereof. In 1965, as part of the Great Society under President Lyndon Johnson, the statist laid the foundation for radically changing the character of American society by intentionally deceiving the public by signing the Hart-Cellar Act, of Immigration reform. President Johnson said " This bill we sign today is not a revolutionary bill. It does not affect the lives of millions. It will not reshape the structure of our daily lives, or really add importantly either our wealth or our power" and Senator Ted Kennedy said " First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same...Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset...Contrary to the charges in some quarters, the bill will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and economically deprived nations of Africa and Asia." Johnson , Kennedy, and the other Statist were wrong....The bill abolished the decades-old policy of national quotas, which was said to have been discriminatory because it favored immigrants from Europe ( you know the ones who supercharged the workforce during our time of trans formative economic expansion ie. Italian stonemasons and bricklayers, German merchants and shopkeepers, and Jewish tailors and seamstresses) over the Third World. The bill introduced for the first time, chain migration, which the Center for Immigration Studies notes," gave higher preference to the relatives of American citizens and permanent resident aliens than to applicants with special job skills." The emphasis would no longer be on the preservation of American society and the consent of the American people: it would now let aliens decide who would come to the United State through family reunification. Moreover, as a result, legal immigration sorted from 2.5 million in the 1950's to about 10 million in the 1990's. These numbers are furthermore compounded by illegal immigration, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's data in March 2007,

- The nation's immigration population (legal and illegal) was a record 37.9 million-accounting for 1in 8 U.S. residents up from 1 in 21 in the 1970's
- Overall 1 in 3 immigrants are illegal-of which 31% have not finished high school compared to 8% of natives-33% of immigrant households use at least 1 major Welfare program
- 34% of immigrants lack health insurance, accounting for 71% of the increase in uninsured since 1989
- Immigration accounts for nearly 100% of increase in public school enrollment over the last 2 decades
- 9% of the population of Mexico lived in the U.S. in 2004- now its even higher-57% of all illegal immigrants are Mexican another 24% are Latin American- 55% of all Mexicans are here illegally
- In 2006 there were 36.5 million people in poverty, up from 33.6 in 1990 and increase of 2.9 million - Hispanics accounted for 100% of them....during the same time white poverty fell .6% and blacks fell 7%
- Hispanic women have the highest unmarried birth rate in the country- 3x as much as whites and 1.5x as much as blacks
- 55 million immigrants speak another language than English- of these 34 million speak Spanish
- Hispanics receive 4x more welfare and are 3x more likely to use it than non-Hispanic whites
- Mexican are the least to assimilate of all immigrants
- Mexican adolescents are imprisoned at rates of 80% greater than any other immigrant
- Federal and state laws and policies grant de facto citizenship to illegal aliens- allowing sanctuary cities-provide drivers license, in-state college tuition, hospital care, mortgages, and public education- encouraging the illegal immigration by offering these incentives

President Obama, appointed Cecilia Munoz, a senior vice president of La Raza ( meaning: The Race in Spanish) , as director of Intergovernmental Affairs:
Some goals and views of La Raza:
- Supports open borders and amnesty for all illegal aliens
- Views the United States as an irredeemably racist nation
- Favors racial and ethnic preferences for minorities in the workplace and in higher education
- Supports the Dream Act, which allows illegal aliens to attend college at reduced in-state tuition rates - normally reserved for the tax paying citizens of the that state
- Wants illegal aliens to receive full access to taxpayer-funded health care
- Supports drivers license and voting rights for illegal aliens
- Characterizes any reduction in government assistance to illegals as " a disgrace to American values"
If Obama and the Democratic congress didn't believe these things or want these things, then why else would he make this appointment.

In his 1776 Farewell Address to the nation, George Washington explained :

Citizens, either by birth or choice, of a common country, that country has the right to concentrate your affections.
the name of America, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of
Patriotism, more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.

We must start our battle here. We must close our borders until we can absorb the immigrants we already have forcing them to assimilate, and stop the illegal immigration. If allowed this congress will give amnesty to all illegal aliens, putting our country into an unrecoverable debt. We must force the illegals out of this country by removing their abilities to survive. We must impose such stiff fines on businesses that employ illegals that they cannot survive. The first fine should be 30% of the company’s annual revenue, the next will be 50%, and there would be no need for a 3rd strike...But if government won't enforce the law , than we should. It is our country, and it is our right to support and defend it, by all means necessary. Start by not allowing these companies to do business, don't hire any company that you suspect is employing illegals, and let them know why you are not hiring them. Turn over all suspected companies and individuals who employ illegals, and illegals themselves to Immigrations. Call your local, state, and federal elected officials to voice your concerns. If they don't listen, call on your friends, co-workers, and community to push these individuals out of office. The greatest weapons we have is out voice and our vote!
