Congress is taking our nation towards bankruptcy because they don’t address the Evil that allows them to wage war and spend like there’s no tomorrow. They live like kings and queens and they do so because We The Serfs don’t speak up!

Below is the letter I sent to Congressman, John Campbell of Newport Beach, California. He chairs the Budget and Spending Taskforce of the Republican Study Committee.
The purpose of the letter was to point out how his solutions are limited based on his own admissions and that to really solve the problem, the means by which Congress abuses its power must be removed.
Dear Mr. Campbell,
I listened to you on the House floor today. You’re on the right track, but you are missing a few important points. A few comments if I may….
If the government is to live within its means, congressional spending, as you say, is part of the problem. And the problem, as you point out, is congressional spending beyond their means (doubling the deficit for 2008).
This is something Congress can’t control, because again, as you mentioned, they have been doing it for the last 44 out of 48 years! Not a great track record!
The problem then lies in the “means” by which congress is allowed to conduct this spending. If we had a sound monetary system, then congress wouldn’t be able to play their spending games, including their war games. That is the bottom line.
But congress won’t cut the hand that feeds them, so there will be nothing your committee can do but either tax U.S. citizens more, or continue devaluing The People’s purchasing power via the hidden tax of inflation.
Congress IS the problem and the Federal Reserve IS the Evil that allows you the means to Pillage the Serfs.
America is headed for trouble no matter what your efforts may be to save her. The proof is in your words that we’ve only been able to do it for 4 years over the last 48! And these, most would say, were “the good years!”
If you want to help The People, then you need to cut government programs that contribute to the waste while paying off the debt….and you do it NOW!
The only way we can stop the spending madness is to take away the Evil by which they are allowed to drive us deeper in debt: The Federal Reserve.
