Our country has really gone to shit......

     It is about 8:52 pm. on a Thursday night and I just got caught up on all of the latest news and what not, and to my surprise, well not really to my surprise but it was shocking. Our leader, the ELECTED leader of our country said that if the government can't pay its bills that social security and veteran's benefits were some of the things that couldn't get paid out. Wait, maybe I didn't hear that right, nope after a quick check he's quoted saying something along those lines....I call bullshit.  There are about 55 million people that rely on social security and veteran's benefits to pay rent, and buy food (Two of that 55 million I really care about, my Mom and Dad) and these fucking heartless politicians can't pull their heads out of their asses, drop their egos and compromise on a deal that allows either the debt ceiling to be raised so we can continue to borrow money to run our government or just find a way to pay the bills with what we have. Make a fucking choice you dick sucking fat cats. I point fingers at both parties. Of course there is no simple answer that satisfies both schools of thinking.  Since the conservatives and liberals can't seem to see the bigger picture we the people will suffer.  Umm excuse me but didn't we the people get you gasbags your fucking jobs? What the fuck? These are adults in Washington right?  I can't believe that the solution to this problem is to shift the cost off on the retired, elderly, disabled, and most disgusting of all the veterans.  How dare you Washington. You have no honor or respectability if you take money and food away from the men and women who fought, bled, and lost friends for this country.  My Dad suffers so severely from his time in Vietnam that he hasn't had a normal life since and now in his 60's the effects of agent orange have robbed him of his previous vitality and strength and the meager check he receives once a month to support him and my mother is not a hand out, he earned it. All veterans have earned their benefits, they did their service to this country and put themselves in harms way for this country and now the assholes who are currently in charge of this countries policies wants to take a shit on them? How about we start with government wages starting with the president, does he really need 400K a year? Wouldn't 250K be good enough? All the wages these elected officials make should be put under the microscope.  Then lets look at how much money we waste daily on a conflict on several fronts that we in all essences started? Seems like we could cut the salaries of the policy makers, their staff, and then back off the war until we all together end it....how much spending would be cut right there? Then lets hit up Wall Street and Hollywood for that bail out money back that they got a couple years ago.
     Now this mess didn't start because of Obama, he was merely the guy who had to clean it up, but he is still doing a bad job. Plain and simple, he doesn't get enough respect from his peers in Washington so they fight him on everything and it is now all about ego and partisan politics and not what is best for the people of this country. Fuck that and Fuck you all in Washington.  Social Security should have been untouchable. How about we get some of that aid back from Africa and Japan? How about instead of punishing the people of this country we stop giving hand outs to foreign countries whose people most likely talk shit about Americans anyways.  What do we really offer the world besides, movies, music, and war? Nothing. We offer ideas of the American Dream....well looks like our own government is willing to piss all over that now too.
     I'm no expert by any means, many of us aren't, that is why we have elected representatives to help us make the hard decisions but if even I can see that the way things are going isn't working why can't anyone who is in power see the same?  Why does it seem like the government is turning into a debate club instead of a policy and law making institution?
     To finish up this rant, the government should never have ever considered cutting veterans benefits, those men and women who receive those benefits earned them, so how dare you even think that you would rather pay off foreign creditors and the evil federal reserve bank before your own former troops and military members.  We couldn't have won WW2 without troops right? We couldn't have wasted time in Vietnam without bodies right? Same deal with Iraq and Afghanistan. Are we going to shit on those troops in 30 years like they are doing to today's vets? I am once again ashamed to be an American after seeing the way these adult infants in Washington have caused more worry to the people of this nation.  IF YOU ARE IN AN ELECTED OFFICE JUST DO YOUR FUCKING JOB AND TAKE CARE OF THE PEOPLE WHO PUT YOU IN THAT OFFICE.....SIMPLE FUCKING ENOUGH ISN'T IT?

Here is a more professional article about the benefit cuts on MSN

There is one more culprit to this scenario I have yet to mention in detail, The Federal Reserve Bank and its Shadow Masters are sitting back watching all of this and having a scotch and a cigar because this is the kind of situation that just gives them more power and that is all they are after. We are well into their master plan and it can only get worse from here unless we all realize that the system is bad and needs a replacement.  Conspiracy theory or not the federal reserve system is a system of self generating debt, and we have been its slave for too long. FUCK CHANGE GIVE ME A REVOLUTION!!
