The Greek economy is falling apart. Yet pretty much all we hear about is the need for a bailout to prevent Greece from defaulting. What we don’t hear about is that any bailout will not go to the Greek people but to the banks and institutional investors.

So what does this mean for the people of Greece? The NY Times and several other news outlets have written about the problems the Greek people are facing. Since we are doing everything we can to drive off the cliff of economic ruin ourselves, I thought it might be interesting to see what a future that includes economic disaster looks like for people not banks.

Fox News has canceled the show, Freedom Watch, hosted by Judge Andrew Napolitano. The Judge is a stanch defender of the Constitution and his show focused on the dangers posed to our freedom and liberty by an ever growing Federal government bent on controlling every aspect of our lives. The growth in the power of this "central government" has been promoted by both Republicans and Democrats.  Please read on.......

We are all familiar with the John Kerry Conundrum Disorder. It’s the ability of a Washington politician to be “for” an issue before they were “against” it. Well, apparently it’s contagious. Please read on……..

Yes folks Washington DC needs to borrow some more cash. Hard to believe isn’t it? After all, in November of 2010 we sent new people to Washington with one real purpose, to cut the deficit and the debt. How’s that working out? Please read on.........

Most of us are familiar with TARP, the Troubled Asset Relief Program, implemented by George Bush in 2008. (This is not to be confused with the $787 billion Obama stimulus program from 2009.)  TARP authorized the government to spend $700 billion in order to purchase bad assets from troubled US banks and financial institutions back in 2008 and 2009.

But what you may not know is that the US taxpayers were also on the hook for ten times more than TARP thanks to Ben Bernanke and the Federal Reserve? That’s right $7.7 trillion.

"Just So Ya Know......"

At 7:25 this morning the national debt of the United States stood at 14 trillion 998 billion dollars. Since we borrow more than $4 billion a day this will be that last time we will see our debt under $15 trillion.

Do you know what the “upper house” of the United States Congress, the time honored and august body, the “Club of 100”, our own United States Senate did yesterday?

Did they finally pass a budget after 900 days?  No, not that. Perhaps they ratified a nuclear missile treaty with the Communist Chinese?   Nope.   Maybe they confirmed a US Supreme Court nominee or acted as the jury during the impeachment trial of a federal judge?     Sorry, you'll have to read on. 

“Just So Ya Know…”  Just when you think it can’t possibly get any worse----$2 trillion TARP for Europe; No transparency on Solyndra; and another war this time in Uganda. 

Are you among the 46 million people in America living below the poverty line? Do you find it impossible to afford a nice vacation? (I think it’s now a right.) Well, hang in there because help may be on the way!

When a secret government panel of unnamed officials assumes the power to maintain a kill list and then anonymously places American citizens on this hit list to be killed, we all ought to be outraged.
