Well folks, it's started already. The government bailed out the banks to the tune of something like 3 Trillion dollars and now they imagine that they have to pay it back. Just who the hell do we have to pay it back to? Are we paying it back to ourselves? Where did this come from? Who is responsible for spending all of our money?

Now they are working out The Grand Bargain. This is where they all get together and rape the Middle Class and the Lower Class. They take your Social Security money that you paid into. They cut Medicare that you paid into, and they tell you it's because of the deficit. They want your money, and they are going to get it.

Who are we in debt too? Do we have to pay back The Federal Reserve? The Federal Reserve is owned in part by the Rothschild's. You know what the best thing to do is? Tell them to go F*ck themselves.

Look at this thing seriously. Congress gets together and passes a law that we must come to an understanding or the tax breaks will expire for both the rich and the Middle Class. Automatic cuts in the non-defense non-discretionary spending will kick in. Who set this deal up, the same people that are screaming for this Grande Bargain to shore things up?

It's a freaking game. It's a way to make the middle class and lower classes pay the governments debts. What are we paying all of this for? We are paying back the three Trillion dollars they paid to the bankers to keep this broken capitalistic system going!

What did the bankers do with the trillions the government threw at them to keep the financial system from falling apart? They won't tell anyone. Where's the money? Why are they fixing to cut Social Security and Medicare? Who came up with that idea? They're talking about cutting Veterans benefits. Are they going to cut or take my military pension that I got for serving 21 years in the military? They better think twice.

The government is ready for this. They have all there ducks in order if there is an uprising in this country. They have their detention camps, North Com, and they're drones. What they don't realize is that they couldn't t put down an uprising in Afghanistan against the rag-tag Taliban in an area the size of Texas, what they hell makes them think that they could put down an uprising of over three Hundred million people in the most-armed nation in the World?

This is all bullsh*t. These are all imaginary numbers. This is all imaginary debt. It's time for the 1% to cull the rest of the wealth out of the country by cutting social welfare programs and taking the money. That's all it is.

Let's get real here. Change your economic system. Capitalism doesn't work in an imploding economy. Capitalism requires constant growth to work and there isn't much room for growth. This is precisely why your economic system is failing. Who has all the wealth in this country?

Why don't you take the money from the 1% that owns 37.5% of all the wealth? What about the other 9% that has another 30% of the wealth? Why go after the middle and lower classes? The rich sucked all the profits out of this country with the giant giveaway that happened during the economic crisis, where is the payback for that?

Why not go after AIG and all the other Wall Street firms that sucked our money like a two-dollar prostitute? Where are your Goddamn scruples? This is going to backfire. Wake up and smell the coffee Mr. President. 11% of the electorate stayed home during this last election. Why do you think that was?  That was enough votes to turn the direction of the election. We sat home and refused to vote. Don't you think you have a problem here?
