The GOP's moment of truth

"Paper money will invariably operate in the body of politics as spirit liquors on the human body. They prey on the vitals and ultimately destroy them…. Paper money has had the effect in your state that it will ever have, to ruin commerce, oppress the honest, and open the door to every species of fraud and injustice.” 
George Washington



Spinning out of Control  -  The endless printing of paper money to pay for a Socialist Welfare State has brought the world to the edge of a cliff.
  • The Democrats are addicted to spending like a heroin user.
  • But do the Socialist-Lite Republicans have the will power to end the madness?

The truth of George Washington's quote above to a Senator from Rhode Island is still valid in the 21st century.  Yet it is fully understood by very few of the so-called "best and brightest" who run the United States.
.
Words such as “ruined,” “evil,” “oppression,” “fraud,” and “injustice” are seen as partisan rhetoric in the battle for control of the Federal leviathan – and the paper money that flows so freely to it via the Federal Reserve. Clueless politicians on both sides of the isle do not recognize that this flow of money will soon cease to exist, along with the power it buys. The vacuum left will create a power grab of historic proportions.

Should we fail to take action now, one need only look at the European Union to see our ultimate fate. The EU is a failed attempt to unite diverse nations under a single fiat currency without a centralized government to administer it. Common sense dictated that this experiment would fail. As predicted, fiscal prudence was not practiced by all member nations. Those practicing restraint resent those who did not, resulting in political and economic instability. Political posturing over proposed solutions has created deadlock. To buy more time, money was printed. The resulting accumulation of sovereign debt has now triggered a crisis that has consumed all of Europe.
.
As the sovereign debt crisis rolls from Europe to our shores, be assured that the same “solution” proposed for Europe will be “offered” to the United States. Consolidation of the monetary system at an international level (International Monetary Fund) will be touted as the remedy to the economic hardship Americans will soon be embroiled in.

The Olden Days When Gold and Silver was Money.
When gold and silver was money somehow the sun came up every day, children played, businesses did business, people went to work and lived their lives. But our ever so smart economists from the very best schools (who think loaning money to Greece is a good idea) tell us we are the "crazy" ones for wanting a stable gold backed currency and balanced budgets.


Sound Money
Once upon a time the GOP stood for Sound Money backed by gold. Since then they have become insane big spenders printing endless "free" paper money to cover obscene Big Government spending in an endless quest to buy votes.
