Once again I need to tell you something important: They think you’re stupid and they hate you.
Indeed, Democratic politicians have been proving that statement true since before the Civil War. With expert lies from expert liars, they promise things that would make a used car salesman green with envy, only to discover it was your fault that you misheard them.
Let’s take a moment to dive into the world of smarmy politicians to see how they make the world their oyster.
As of this writing, the federal guvment is deeply submerged in a stalemate because of money issues. Not unlike money matters in your personal home, the guvment cannot spend more money than they have. What they have is what Congress appropriates through the Department of Treasury.
Treasury gets their money from taxes that are imposed upon citizenry and businesses throughout our nation. Those tax dollars are then given to Congress in what can be described as a checkbook. Nearly everyone once had a checkbook in which their paychecks were deposited.
When you visited your A&P Grocery store, for example, you wrote a check for the food stuffs you wanted to buy. It was considered as good a cash, only safer because a check required your signature as endorsement. Without your signature – a promise to pay – that check was useless.
With the exception of common thieves who would write “bad” checks that were stolen, or knowing there was not enough money in the account to cover these bogus checks. That is considered “theft.” Another good term is “stealing.” Even better is “misappropriation.”
All these words have their place in the American lexicon. But misappropriation fits the best. It’s one of those lawyer-words that provides enough wiggle room to say one thing, yet mean another. While used in conjunction with other words, they can hit a home run.
Being a politician is one of those “non-job jobs,” in which the person gets paid lots of money for little work and no consequences for their actions.
Politicians find donors to “give” them money to run for an office in which the politician gets paid money from the voters, also known as: constituents. Constituents blindly trust that this stranger, who desperately wants your vote to get into office, is someone who will look after your interests.
But let’s back up for a moment. Why would a donor “give” money to someone to run and win in an election? I’ve had plenty of jobs in my life and no one – NO ONE – ever gave me money to get a particular job. I would get paid once I had a job, only not before. Just saying.
It would seem as though paying someone to run for an office might imply they would be looking for future payback, perhaps in the form of favorable legislation, maybe land deals, or even a high prestige job for themselves or a relative.
Of course, that’s all speculation. What happens if the politician doesn’t win the election?
Hoping eventually, they would be elected, they could then repay any “debt.” Consider it a running tab like in a bar.
You see, you and your interests have not yet come into this story. It’s all about the politicians and their mentors. Once they receive their political position, politicians are quick to realize there’s all sorts of money available in the halls of government.
Television game shows often used a glass phone booth-style contraption with a fan on the floor of the box. On the floor along with the fan was a stack of folding money – green currency – that whirled about this transparent enclosure creating a tornadic effect.

The contestant inside this box was supposed to grab as much of this moolah as possible. If anything, it was entertaining, often maddening that they were unable to scoop up even more money than they did. In any case, this is a segue of how monies seem to flow to politicians at the seat-of-guvment.
Soon after a swearing-in ceremony, representatives from defense manufacturers, petroleum companies, airplane manufacturers, shippers, auto builders, and pharmaceuticals are likely to be found prowling the bowels of guvment in an effort to find an ally.
While this behavior has become commonplace for both sides of the aisle, Democrats seem to have excelled at finding this trough of seemingly endless financial sustenance. Hillary Rodham Clinton (HRC), wife of former President William Jefferson Clinton had a vision to improve life for potential sick American people.
HRC urgently promoted health care for uninsured and under-insured Americans, for several years. Her take on this crisis was that a single illness could possibly financially bankrupt a family, and that was unacceptable. Working with doctors, hospitals, and insurance companies, HRC attempted to strike a deal that would be the problem to her newfound solution. It didn’t materialize.
President Obama eagerly grabbed the healthcare baton to create the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as: ObamaCare. It was a brilliant effort to frighten the American populace into believing this giant illegal Ponzi scheme would keep them safe from financial ruination. Obama actually referred to this theft of 1/6th of the federal budget as a “shellacking.” Nice.
Yet here we are. The federal budget has come up for approval, just as it does every year, due on September 30th, every year. Every year. Each year. Including this year. But the Democrats have been secretly gambling that President Trump would cave to their demands to simply tack an additional few bucks onto this year’s budget.
President Trump, however, is not caving because the budget is due – in case you missed it – every year on September 30th. But why would those smarmy Democrats need more money? Please read on.
With great foresight to relocate the financial burden into the future, well beyond most memories, blame for its shortcomings has arrived. “While federally funded through 2025, ObamaCare enhanced premium tax credits are about to expire. This means increased costs for taxpayers.
If these credits are not extended, the average premium payments for enrollees could more than double,” according to a DuckDuckGo search.
Further, “The ACA has led to increased enrollment in health insurance plans, with over 24 million people currently enrolled in the marketplace. However, without continued financial support, many may lose coverage, which could lead to higher costs for emergency care an other public health expenses,” the DuckDuckGo search continues.
Unfortunately, this significant investment by taxpayers aimed at increasing access to health care, has brought us to the threshold of future necessary subsidies that are needed to continue this guvment grift. These are the same politicians who have now frozen the federal budget.
That Congressional checkbook is empty and has been so for years. There’s no mo’ money. From whence will it come?
The answer is higher taxes. Because that brilliant ACA wasn’t so brilliant after all. It was merely another way for money to quietly change hands from one entity to another.
In this case, it was the insurance industry that is being funded by the taxpayers who had their pockets picked by greedy politicians lying about the nobility of their actions.
A stalemate has ensued in guvment, with Democrats blaming Republicans for not increasing the budget by another $1,000,000,000,000. That’s a trillion dollars.
Stop lying. Stop spending money you don’t have. Place the blame where it belongs: on the party that gave you the Ku Klux Klan, segregation, an illegal alien invasion, failed schools, civil unrest, lenience for criminals, open drug policies, unfettered abortions, males participating in female sports, and an anti-American media...the Democratic Party.
And one more time, “They think you’re stupid and they hate you.”
