A Trillion Is Quite A Few Dollars
Dear Editor,
The Dems got their $1.9 trillion stimulus/recovery bill through.
But how can one comprehend even $1 trillion?
In terms of time, if you were given a dollar for every second you are alive, you’d be dead before you tallied up any super huge sum. It would take 317 centuries of counting one dollar every second to make one trillion dollars!
To pay out the Democrat approved stimulus package over the course of one year, the Biden administration would have to spend $3.7 billion every day for the rest of the year. That’s also equivalent to spending $43,000 per second for a year. That is astounding. And to know that only 9 percent is going to current virus concerns, it is atrocious.
My liberal friends must feel the same way about debt as I do about climate change or why on earth would they support this insane spending? Either way our kids and grandchildren are screwed.

Democrats Moving Toward Total Control
Dear Editor,
The National Socialist Democrat left, along with their handful of RINOs sycophants, are on a roll and they know it. Their HR 1 having been passed is but the first of many things they have been waiting for. And know that they have tasted victory they are becoming bolder.
They have what they’ve been craving, that being total control of two of the three branches of government and believe they have the right to do whatever they want. The only thing standing in the way is the third branch, that being the judicial. And because the majority of that branch are known constitutionalists and will very likely reverse the majority of HR 1 they will do everything they can to delay and distract until they can come up with a plan to gain a majority there as well.
At the same time they are using their majority in the other two branches to attempt to establish a permanent majority regardless of what it takes, legal or illegal. They are prepared to disregard the Constitution and attempt to pass legislation that in essence ignores the Constitution and makes all elections a federal function and disregards the rights of state and local governments and their election laws. We’ve already seen blatant disregard for the system where state courts, not legislatures, made rulings on elections.
The socialist, leftist Democrat Party saw an opportunity, rolled the dice, and won. They have won the first battle in the war to do away with our system of government and are on the way to convert it from a constitutional representative form to what in essence a socialist form. They’ve taken the first step towards one party rule, and unless Republican/conservative leaders get their act together and Republican/conservative minded people get more involved and stand up to what I truly believe is a minority we are going to go under.
Ask yourself this question. How was it that our lieutenant governor and the state legislature, Republicans, won by such a healthy margin yet Duke Cooper got reelected. There may be a reasonable explanation for this and I would like to see what it is.
I personally believe we as a country are at a serious crossroad in our history similar to that of the Civil War. What I don’t believe is it has to go to that extent. But we should not think that we can’t.

Our remarks are for naught without ACTION; those in authority need to hear it from us, one by one, person to person, in writing, phone, fax, all legal process’. Often which must be acknowledge receipts or responses as well.
Local government representatives, whether or not you care for their actions/words, to the state and upwards of our country (while it is still a free country) reps and senators and elected officials who make these standards and laws. It will repeat the horrors of history if we do not encourage participation. Ignore and our grandchildrens grandchildren will be wondering who the hey we thought we were. Perhaps they will consider us the dumbest generation and an embarrassment to the greatest generation to sell thier souls to the man.
How much is a trillion dollars? A businessman was in a meeting when his wife came in and told him she had left her credit cards at home and wanted to do some shopping without having to drive back to the house. So he gave her a million dollars and told her to spend a thousand dollars every day. She left the office, but in just under 3 years, she came back for more money. This time, he gave her a billion dollars. She didn’t come back for 3,000 years. If he had given her a trillion dollars, she would have stayed gone 3 MILLION years.
We’re all getting screwed, from now, not later. There are only two things that you can do with cash. Spend it, or invested it where you get beat the TAX MAN & THE INFLATION MAN. Both are moving in with even greater speed by the day.
Any suggestions on how to do that? Several are obvious. You could start with investing in six months’ of food and water. You can live a few weeks without food, but only days without water. If you are in need of that, then, how would you expect to traipse down to your favorite supermarket and pick up what you need?
Anyone have any idea where the $93 million was spent last time? I’ll bet they won’t say.
I have been concerned for our country since you elected a Democratic president.This new president has royally screwed up almost everything he has tried to talk about.I was watching him talk about the chief of staff and the pentagon ,he could not say The Chiefs name and also he couldn’t say Pentagon.If I am president of China and I Am watching this ,I think how easy for me to take over as the No.1 country in the world when America has a president who can’t walk and chew gum at the same time.He has problems saying back to back sentences in one speech.I would think the world is laughing their buns off at us .Who is Running this show?????I would think both Biden and his handlers should resign. I heard the latest lie that the Democrats are talking about.The problem at the borders are Trump’s fault.what a Crock, from the left.Also I saw a lady on I think The View give the Osborne wife a chastizeing because she said she was friends with Piers Morgan and the person then began to ‘give lip service to Osborne’s wife.Who put the Dems in charge of our nation and giving them control to chastise any one who speaks against their authorities.Who put them in Moses Seat? Do we have to endure the next 3.7 years of this crap?HELP!!!!!
You know he legit has a stutter and speech impediment right? Like he’s going to mess up sentences all four years, get used to it.
He can’t even say the pledge of allegiance to the flag without stopping. But that’s OK, his handlers will say it for him. He’s kind of like the actor who played dead in the movie Weekend at Bernie’s.
Alan, what the socialist swamp monsters of both parties need to do is realize that an unarmed mob angry about the abuse, neglect and blatant disrespect from these idiots went to the capital building where the elitist Stand before the cameras and belittle conservative AMERICAN CITIZENS and beat back their securitythen and walked the halls where the cowards were before running to hide. We have had enough and when these communist finally tear the parchment in which our constitution is written, there isn’t enough national guard, Capitol Police or anything else to stop the ARMED AMERICANS that will be beating down the doors and dragging these socialist out of their holes and into the street! These commies better quit while they are still sucking air! Freedom isn’t free and communism most certainly will have its price! The tree of liberty needs to be refreshed and I think it is time!
This guy. Lol. Making blank threats again. So tough. So patriotic. What a dream.
The dream may become reality, whether you want it, or not. There are enough of us in our neighborhood who are ready to defend our home, and what is in them, BAMN. If the GPD can’t do it, we will.
Withstanding an organized police force is an entirely another thing.
The Nazis took the Austrian citizens’ weaponry & free press, thus they had no power to resist. Same with Stalin, Chavez, Pol Pot, Hirohito, Mao……..
Once again the people of this country get crumbs. The Covid 19 stimulus bill is a boondoggle for the democrats. Why can’t we get 25,50 or 100K per person to help stimulate the economy. $1400 is a joke. That would really help people out in stead of helping planned parenthood. Don’t worry there is no crisis at the border either. Uncle Joe has it under control.
Beijing Biden’s Border Crisis is growing! If this continues, eventually illegal aliens may outnumber American citizens! The huge Covid Relief Bill only gives 9 percent for Covid Relief. Will the balance be used to support the illegals who are flooding our Southern border (food, housing, medical care, education, etc.)?
I strongly agree that this spending is insane. I just wish more of the modern Trump conservatives had this belief when Republicans pushed through a Corp tax reduction that added almost the same amount of debt. Amazing how when it is the other party that the rose colored glasses come off.
As an old school conservative, national debt is my biggest concern. Wish that the Trumpers believed the same.
I don’t see any leader changing our debt scenario unless you can get the citizens to agree to higher costs for less services. Slash the military, science, agriculture, education, transportation, etc. budgets in half and triple tax revenue and we might make a dent in our debt. No one is going to vote for that. It got out of control when we developed a nation off of nearly free labor and nearly infinite profit that we insist on perpetuating into eternity.
