Obama is the Six Trillion Dollar Man

This is a new rap from Justin Charters about the Obama presidency. Christine O’Donnell’s PAC, ChristinePAC, put out this video recently, and it is going viral at the moment. The “Six Trillion Dollar Man” is a reference to the seventies show “The Six Million Dollar Man” and the debt spending that has occurred in the last four years.

Mitt Romney Exposes Obama’s 5 Trillion Dollar Lie!

The latest lie that Barack Obama has been spouting on the campaign trail was repeated several times during the debate. Namely, Obama is accusing Mitt Romney of proposing a 5 trillion dollar tax cut for the wealthy.

During the debate, Mitt Romney dismissed the 5 trillion dollar claim as fiction. In his latest ad, he provides backing from liberal media sources and, most astonishingly, the deputy campaign manager for the Obama campaign: Stephanie Cutter.

It’s Government That Can’t Exist Without Businesses

In a recent speech, Barack Obama delivered the line that Mitt Romney is quickly turning into the centerpiece of the 2012 presidential campaign: “If you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that; somebody else made that happen.” The Obama campaign is crying that this line is being taken out of context. Well, you can see the larger context in the video below, and it doesn’t make Obama look any better.

The basic thrust of the speech is that wealthy people need to pay higher taxes because the government provides services for them. This is a common argument for liberal politicians because they are always trying to increase taxes. So, I thought I might tackle this oft-repeated theme.

First, it isn’t the case that businesses can’t exist without government services; it’s government services that can’t exist without business. Government may build some of the things that businesses use. However, everything that government has is taken from businesses. Without them, government has nothing.

Second, businesses rely on some government services because government regulations forbid the private sector from providing them. Look at education: Government requires it, forces everyone to pay for it, and then stifles competition by opposing school choice programs. Despite that, virtually everyone who can afford to pay twice for their children’s education opts to send their kids to private schools, even public school teachers. The public education system is extremely expensive and does an incredibly poor job, and that is the sad truth of almost everything that government does.

That is reality. We are all forced, by the government, to pay extremely high taxes for incredibly bad services. Then, if the government actually manages to do something that isn’t completely useless, we are expected to get down on our knees and praise government workers because they “made that happen.”

It’s as certain as the sunrise that when a liberal politician wants to raise your taxes, they will tell you how much you need the one or two government services that people actually use. They will threaten you and say that those services will be cut if your taxes aren’t raised.

When they do threaten you, remind them that your taxes already overpay for those services. Remind them that you pay excessively high rates for those crummy services because government, unlike the private sector, is a monopoly. Remind them that, for every government service that you use, you pay for a thousand others that are completely useless. Remind them that most of the money that you are forced to pay into each government program is wasted. Remind them that it is the politicians that should get down on their knees and praise you because without your money, they wouldn’t have jobs. Remind them that it was your work and your taxes that “made that happen.”

George Soros: “There Isn’t All That Much Difference” Between Obama and Romney

There isn’t much of a difference between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, and George Soros knows it. Mitt Romney’s people helped Barack Obama design Obamacare. If Romney becomes president, Obamacare will not be repealed because it is virtually identical to his health care plan in Massachusetts.
