WHERE THERE'S SMOKE???

In my 51 years of life's experiences, there is one thing that has held true more times than not and that is an old saying my Mom passed on to me at an early age that "Where there's smoke, there's usually fire".

Given the present political and economic environment in which we now find ourselves, these words are echoing louder and louder. As you may recall, I wrote in a previous blog about my concerns for some of the issues that have been brought to light as late as yesterday concerning the over-stepping reach of the gov't into various aspects of our personal and private lives. At the time many may have dismissed my feelings as "far-fetched", but I ask you now to reevaluate your opinions, particularly given the announcements of the pay czar yesterday regarding limits on compensation.

Yes at initial view it looks like it only effects companies that received bail-out funds from the tax payers and many may say that why shouldn't the gov't have a say in what these people are paid and maybe that's a good argument. But don't limit your sight to only that. Let's look a little further into the legislation and the wording hidden deep into it's many pages that states to the effect:

"that the gov't may at it's discretion review and have access to all financial information from ANY company which it deems to be a substantial risk to the financial system of the USA up to and including limits and structures of employee pay"

Now that may not be the exact wording but the theory is the same. Think about that for a moment! How do we limit which companies fall into this category? Or can the gov't just decide for whatever reason they choose to mandate how companies are being run under the realm of them being a "potential" risk? Now hopefully it's not only me who believes that this kind of sweeping power is a bit over the "norm".

Typically I wouldn't be so alarmed but given the actions of this administration who at every turn has taken steps to bring down capitalism, devalue the US dollar as the market standard, make corporations the "evil enemy", despise anyone who earns and accumulates wealth, (outside of themselves of course), attacks anyone or anything that opposes their views and uses their power to control more and more of our individual lives.

So as they continue to march forward with their agenda under the guise of we "only want to help the impoverished and the minorities" who continue to fall for their hollow lies, they have put the wheels in motion to destroy the fabric of our democracy!

I do see some smoke coming from somewhere behind the curtain and although it may not appear to be a raging inferno that needs to be addressed immediately, don't be fooled...that is all part of the "grand-plan" enacted by the AXIS OF EVIL- (Obama, Pelosi & Reid) who want to distract and lull us into thinking that it is OK! Until such time that the embers they keep secretly stoking erupt into a fire so big that it scorches this country beyond recognition!!!


Keep your eyes and ears open and make sure those batteries are fresh in your smoke detectors...
