Does America have another four years left?
Submitted by LastAmericanStanding on Sat, 05/31/2008 - 14:36
Picture America under Barack Obama... or Hillary Clinton.... or John McCain.
Can we survive as a nation? Do we have enough left to bear another bad presidency? How can we continue to fund unending wars, tax the middle class, prop up a growing poor class (as the middle class shrinks by leaps and bounds)? We stand now - right now - at a breaking point. We're working something like 5 months out of the year just to pay all of our taxes (fed, state, local). It won't take much to tip the whole apple cart.
If Paul doesn't get in and jump on the brakes, does anyone else fear the next four years?

I wonder if....
I wonder if we, the RP supporters, can wake enough people nationwide, to NOT FILE TAXES AT ALL next year....I'm talking 150 million people that don't file any taxes...would that make a dent? Would they be able to turn a deaf ear? If money is all they understand or care about, then let's all speak their language!
Do we have 4 more years as a nation? I say no. And my reasons are:
Amnesty will be given to the illegals if anyone but Paul is elected, then 30 million more will show up to take their places...Then, we'll be northern Mexico, not the United State of America. I for one am an "independent contractor" at work, and therefore file a 1099. I have filed my last one. I quit. I really don't have a problem with taxes...I have a problem with it being spent as interest to the Fed...or to house the poor...or feed Africa. I don't care about any of them. Sure, I'm a selfish bastard...when I needed help from Big Brother when things were really bad for me, I didn't qualify for help! So...screw them!

Well, I'm not sure about everybody else
but, I have all the time in the world.
Whether this "regime" has much time left, is another matter.
This "regime" was knifed in the heart by the bankers many years ago.
It's just now getting ready to fall over.
This is the critical time for them, because they need to transition to their next stage.
All we have to do is refuse to go with it. And fight when they try to come for us. That will really piss them off, because they think they have it in the bag.
Oh yeah. They'll try to cut off our power and food and stuff, and make sure that we don't have any credit cards and can't use "their money". Be ready. 'Cause if you're not ready, they are gonna put you on the cattle car. Your choice.
Well, with Bush wanting to
Well, with Bush wanting to bomb Iran so badly and the Chinese acting like the communists they are with the people going to the Olympics (read this article: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/03/world/asia/03china.html?_r...), we may have less than that. Think about it, both supposed to be in August. We need to have someone poison Rockefeller and hack his system.
Im to the point where I
Im to the point where I don't really care any more. If there is all some big cosmic plan for armaggeddon or whatever, nothing we do will stop it anyways. Just kick back, get your flip flops and chicken wings and watch some football or whatever. The populace in the US is too dumbed down to turn around. By the time everyone figures it out it'll be too late anyways so screw it.
I'll bring a keg
who's got the wings?
"The body is but a vessel for the soul,
A puppet which bends to the soul's tyranny.
And lo, the body is not eternal,
For it must feed on the flesh of others,
Lest it return to the dust whence it came.
Therefore the soul deceives and despises."
I'll bring

I'll help you out with that...

well..YOU'RE a breath of fresh air
but I am beginning to agree with you.
It's kind of funny that you
It's kind of funny that you say 4 years left. Won't that be 2012? haha
Yes, I dread...
1.) Chertoff: He is isolating America from the rest of the world. He is demanding any British traveling to America to submit 72 hours before hand their travel plans. He is installing spying intelligence hardware and software that looks at your NAKED BODY and calculates your facial expressions as a terrorist 1-10 scale. What makes him stop with the just the British? Soon he will reject the whole world to travel here. The ones that do come will be degraded, searched, held up for hours and even get their stuff stolen from them while being searched.
2.)Rockefeller: NAFTA -Say good bye to health insurance, to descent salaries, food you can actually eat, to wild animals and plants, to small farms, air you can breathe, water you can drink, grass fed cattle and time spent with your family and loved ones.
These two people among others are driving nails into America's coffin. They are deliberately working all of us into a corner to be pummeled, tased and chained. They are transporting MILLIONS of jobs to cheap labor countries, they are driving away friendly tourism and they are siphoning our tax money into the appropriate pockets. We are being isolate. We are being spied on. We are being lied too. We are being set up.
Yes - I am very concerned with the bullshit that comes out of these peoples mouths. They ARE amoral and unconscionable. They demand SELF IMMOLATION. They treat human being like animals. Why do they treat human beings like animals? Are they sick, demented or are they reading something that is blocking their ability to act like a human being.
The future will be determined by our actions.
Screw Chertoff
He is a traitor. I am ashamed of my government for allowing these neocon bastards to destroy a once great country of mine. How dare they let someone who has dual citizenship into our government. HOW DARE YOU. YOUR DAY IS COMING YOU NEOCON BASTARDS.
A better question is....
Does the CFR have 4 more years of controlling the US government left.. The groundswell of information about this group of criminals is enlightening a whole lot of Americans who aren't to happy about there actions and agenda..
Regardless of what happens, I have no doubt the establishment knows we will not go down without a very serious fight!!
Keep your heads up and hope alive!

No
No
enough said.
Yes, we do
Don't throw down the only weapon you have and surrender in disgust, we must keep fighting as there is a way back.
I know you're all feeling defeated...but try to regain the enthusiasm and vigor I felt from this movement in November 07. Maybe we were too blind to think we could win this revolution in 2008, but we can still win it if we aren't throwing down the sword and giving up.
Things are always the bleakest before the tide turns and we start to win. Our movement is making more progress than you would believe, and we can't give up after the first battle. It is not a lost cause, and we all know it's a just cause. Keep your eyes on the prize and we can win back our country.

It depends on what the next 4 years are about
If it is more of the same corruption or some quasi-freedom movement, the answer is an emphatic NO. If there is an honest, patriotic small group put into power to turn the tide, our country can go through the healing, cleansing, and correction phase to return our Constitutional Republic easily within the next 4 years, but this has to begin soon, really, really soon. Will it take a miracle and do miracles happen? I think the power structures are imploding from their own weight and the plans are going awry as well as the economy is hanging on by a thread so everything is in flux, as much as the MSM makes it look like all is normal. There are those who want to make us believe that it is impossible for us to be successful in a true Revolution with the ideals of our Forefathers so they would like to convince to jump ship and settle for the crumbs (or crums) we are used to. Or pick one of the evils because we have no other choice. The whole situation is pretty cut and dry. Unless we settle for our food, water, air we breathe, animals, plants, homes, property, beliefs, and even children to be controlled now is the time to say enough is enough in a strong, non-wavering but peaceful way. I truly believe we will prevail and very soon as there is little time left to start the needed changes.
We need a return to the
We need a return to the Constitution, but we require more than that as well. We need to reinforce the means of accountability and representation; and we need to solve other issues the founders did not resolve -- in particular, we must determine economic justice. We won't get that by returning to the Constitution -- but we'll get the way to do it right.

I had a breakdown this morning
I just feel like I'm so alone and if it weren't for the internet and the DP I would have jumped out a window months ago... I think it's hard living in Chicago and watching everyone so excited about Obama. Then watch the news and hear them talk about how great the democrats have been in this race. You explain the Patriot Act, monetary policy and fact that we are broke means nothing to people. Wouldn't you think that people would care about their rights as humans and what is going on. Or that people would think about where we are going financially. We are all going to be poor and no one cares. Some still think we are richest nation on the planet. Uggg. help us all!
i live in Indianapolis...
and i feel the same way you do midwest_rpfan. i have a buddy, who happens to be a lawyer, that lives in Chicago. and no matter what you say he's all about Obama. and to think most people consider him educated. i have a bunch of friends who live in LA. two have their masters degree and both tried to argue with me that we're still on the gold standard. the older i get the more i realize college "educated" people are some of the dumbest bastards i've ever met.
i'm with you all the way. if it wasn't for the internet and DP i would have climbed the belltower long ago
No matter who you vote for, the government always gets in - Bill Hicks
They've succeeded in dumbing down America
"Wouldn't you think that people would care about their rights as humans and what is going on?"
Unfortunately gov't/media has convinced us that we are slime with no God-given rights - our only entitlements are what they decide to be "fair and balanced". We are at their mercy. God help us all.

and the rest of the neocons want war. They NEED it to sustain our fiat currency. We cant have the president of Iran taking other currencies as his method of payment for his oil, now can we? We have to ensure our currency is the world's currency. This is how they give it value. They also are working hard to get control of these countries who are resisting having the central banks control them. We attack these countries and then we allow the central banks to come in. We will go after ALL countries who refuse to collaborate with the banksters. Venezuala, Iran, ect..Once the central banks have control of these rebels, then they will have control of the whole world. NWO at it's finest.

You good folks are hitting a lot of the nails on the head. I hope we'll be able to persist across the next 4 years. What will come down will come down. In the meanwhile, it's time for us to ready all the real answers, because in 4 years there will be an opportunity to rectify the nation many times as great as the present, squandered one.

Obama will pull out of Iraq
and push into Iran. How convenient just a hop skip and a jump away. Then it is on. The stopwatch will start running.
Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must. like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.-Thomas Paine
The R3volution requires action, not observation!!!!
Just more promises we'll have to break
Yes...do not lose the faith, for we do have at least 4 years left to fix this country.
Most of what is killing us is the unfunded future entitlements, and the fact that they keep bringing more to us...now we're talking about wars with more nations to bring freedom to the world, we're talking about paying the bill for the health care of this country, along with extending all other entitlements as we sink into recession.
This is all leading us to the path of doom, but it is not imminent. We'll have the chance to put the brakes on this apple cart of nonsense, but every day we wait, the pain will become that much greater. We waitied almost a decade in the 70's to put a stop to it, and in result we had to pay the price in the 1980's. It took another decade before we saw results, but we didn't learn our lesson and kept right on with the mistakes.
The Keynesian system has at least one more day in the sun, but it is when we've recovered that we must change our ways, and now is when we must educated people as to what we're doing wrong.
The last chance to fix this stupid system was in 1993, when the pains had ended and the economy was starting to rumble. We could have fixed it then...and although we wouldn't have had the 6 years of massive boom, we also wouldn't have had the bust. We could have kept with sustainable growth and would still be there today.
It is not Keynesian economics that will collapse us...Keynesian economics causes only volitility...it's the other mistakes that will collapse us. It's the out of control spending by the government, it's the massive entitlements with no means to pay, it's the nonsense wars and "police actions" and pointless military bases...the Keynesian system allows this crap to go on unnoticed. It allows for guns and butter, so the pain of war and government spending isn't felt directly, like some sort of tax.
The brakes can still be put on...but we're going to have to break some promises to the American people that we shouldn't have ever made.

I think we are running out
I think we are running out of time because our opposition also believe that THEY are running out of time.
I hope I'm wrong, but I suspect not only an economic crash, but a flag event, a war with Iran, and martial law--all in the next four years.
At least Dr. Paul is awakening the masses to our ideas.
SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States
SUPPORT OUR FOUNDERS' AMERICA
Support the Constitution of the United States
We aren't too far apart
I think the flag event, war with Iran, limited martial law may all be in the works in the next 4 years. They aren't going to declare all out martial law, for they would have a revolution (bloody one) on their hands...but they'll try it on for size after a natural disaster.
As far as an economic crash...I don't see it. I see some steady recessionary times, probably disintegrating into stagflation 3 or 4 years down the road, but no collapse. Things won't be great, but they won't be as bad as you may believe. It's always wise to keep things in perspective and realized that we are not in uncharted waters...these kind of economic events have occured in the past, and didn't cause the outright collapse that is being predicted.

I wish I had your enthusiasm. I just cant find it. I look around my area and people are buying fewer and fewer things. Most people I know are living paycheck to paycheck. This is the truth. There are ALOT of people out of work. Gas and fuel are eating regular people alive. The town I come from is full of minum wage jobs and most of younger folks tell me they are just working to pay for gas. Most of them are still living with thier parents. I know someone who's husband makes around 150,000 a year and she has stopped buying anything and she once was a full scale shopper. I dont see us coming out of this one like we did in the past. For one thing, we dont have the manufacturing base here anymore ( several large factories have already closed up and or went overseas here ) its only a matter of time before the rest follow. We are not creating the jobs that we once were. We have lost what has made America great, our manufacturing base. The economy is not growing, but begining to implode on it's self. We are seeing this. We have been trained to accept debt. This is becoming our downfall. Most Americans are heavy on plastic, but light on cash. No one saves anymore. If the monetary system does fail, it will make the rich and poor on the same playing field. You cant eat a digit. I think that they have know what is going to happen and have made prepreations for it. Thus the bankruptcy laws and the Patriot Act ect. They saw it coming, I mean it's common sense, there are 560 or so of them and 300 million of us...What would you do if you were a neocon/elitist/traitor/scum and you had to quell 300 million pissed off people who have lost thier purchasing power? We all know what would be done. I have also noticed a huge increase in gardens in my area, just about everyone I know has planted a garden. I guess it's instinct to try to put back food for tough times. I really dont see us having more than two years, and that's a long prediction in my book. People cant sustain at this rate and especially if prices go up anymore. The bubble will burst soon from the people, if we dont have another "EVENT" and a dictatorship first.
