Mrs. Clinton wants to give away $20,000,000,000 of your money......
I think I will begin writing with a bit more respect, and refer to the Senator from the great state of New York by her proper name..... Mrs. Clinton. It's disrespectful to keep calling her 'Hillary' when I don't even know her.
Besides, it's a good idea to keep in mind the package deal of Mr. and Mrs. Clinton.
Besides , as well, we should bear in mind that more than forty of their closest friends and associates have died mysteriously or gone to federal prison. Safest to appear respectful I think..... (sure.... Riiiiiight)
In Mrs. Bills latest campaign bid to buy votes, she has come up with a real whopper. She wants to give $5000 savings bonds to every child born in the USA. All four million a year of them.
Considering the average buying practices of the federal government, where hammers bill out at $400, each bond will probably cost at least the $5000 face value, if not more. That's $20,000,000,000 a year. Add in the usual government management markup and the program will likely cost in excess of $100,000,000,000 a year.
The single best thought in this article comes from a Democrat in Ohio:
"I think it's a wonderful idea," said Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, an Ohio Democrat who attended the event and has already endorsed Clinton. "Every child born in the United States today owes $27,000 on the national debt, why not let them come get $5,000 to grow until their 18?"
What she's saying, typical of the parties logic structure, is that since every child is born with $27,000 in government straddled debt from day one, why not make it a nice round $32,000 if that will buy us some much needed votes? After all, the average voter is the same math genius that buys an extra $20 in lottery tickets when the pot is over $100 mil, just to 'increase the odds of winning' from
20 million to 1 .....all the way up to ....... 20 million to 1.
In another note for the logically math challenged, the $5000 bond will actually have less value when it comes due than at it's inception, taken against the average *real* inflation rate. Especially taken against the average college tuition inflation rate.
Since government bonds are backed with taxes collected, not value produced like a commercial bond, the good Senator's plan translates directly to an immediate multi billion dollar a year tax increase from day one.
Rudy the Great says the American public would be stupid to buy into this idea.
And his point is..............?
Lets face it. When it comes to electing people to high office, the American public ain't been doing well in the last few decades, or should I say century?
On the whole, our record for electing slimy bamboozling egomaniac liars is unmatched. Moron after moron, scam after scam, scummy check bouncing fraud after scummy check bouncing fraud, we seem to reach deep down into societies deepest sewage pools to find the most worthless bits of crap to ever masquerade as human beings and elect them as our leaders and representatives.
Come to think of it.... maybe both Rudy and Mrs. Bill are counting on that.
Given Mrs. Clinton's investing history, I have to wonder if there won't spring up a special little industry in buying up all those savings bonds given to the mathematically challenged voters out there.... at pennies on the dollar.....
$20,000,000,000 a year would certainly pay for one heck of a 'Mrs. Bill' library!
(and a private mansion compound with hot and cold running bimbos for Bill and raw meat deliveries for the Maam of the house).
