Washington's Wake

Today, in my town, following layoffs at our little rural hospital, a newspaper published the top incomes of the middle/upper management and executives. To me, the agenda is clear.

The grunt workers are reacting just as the author of the news story wanted them too. They are incensed, furious and down-right PISSED off that these people did not take pay-cuts before people were laid off.

Now, as a nurse, I am a target of contempt as a high-wage earner. Even though I have clearly paid my dues and am of great value to the facility and my patients.

Here’s my paradigm shift: I always felt that professional basketball players made too much money when I was bustin’ my arse taking care of the sick and dying.

Guess I am eating some crow now.

First they came for the CEO’s…

I read this comment today on Hotair.com and the more I thought about it, the scarier it is.

This is really the crux of the problem. More than 1/2 of Americans are living off the rest who are paying taxes, and the entire engine of tyrany is beating the drums of class warfare. It seems like 3 things are inevitable:

1. No one in their right mind will want to be a business owner and make ‘too much money’
2. People who make too much money will either a) leave the country for safer more profitable places to make money or b) make less money on purpose.
3. Tax revenues will drop precipitously as people are punished for productivity.

Yes, this is a bit Atlas Shrugged, but unlike that story, I don’t think there is a John Galt. Our Galts are morons who bought into the program – Gates, Buffet, et cetera determined that the Liberalism and Big Government were going to win the fight and positioned themselves to be on the right side of that battle. Almost all the elite rich are Democrats.

Frankly, I think it is time to abandon the Republican Party as a brand. the baggage is carries is too heavey and the times to serious and important to waste effort moving it around.

Conservatives are a minority of 1/3rd of the people. This, by the way is about the same as the minority that won the revolution.

On Thursday, the Tea Party should issue a call to arms. A civil engagement and war on the nihilism of the destructive ways and  systems.  They should pull out the ideas of the founders and ask Patriotic Americans to sign a petition. A public petition.  The Bill of Rights. The Declaration of Independence… the Constitution. They should ask Americans to SWEAR upon their HONOR before GOD to defend and uphold these ideas and ideals. They should make demands to free the American people.

This Tyranny can not stand.

Of course, it will. And of course they won’t. But we the Sheeple have followed so long and are so far down the path to the slaughter house, I think it’s too late.

BUT, that’s what should happen on the 15th.

the 1/3rd should loudly, angrily and without any compromise make demands. The 1/3 should walk out of work and go on strike. The 1/3 should tell the rest – NO, we will not pay 1 God Damned NICKLE until Freedom is restored.

And when the US Govt. comes for them, they should not pay. They should resist. They should FIGHT.  The tyrants and his majesty can not keep 100 Million people in prinson. The economy can not afford to keep the 100 Million on Strike.

We could change the world without a gun, if we had the resolve.
