2007 Inflation Est. at 4.1% LOL!

This figure is suspicious because my "lying eyes" are seeing excessive surges in food prices, surges in energy prices, health care cost surges, and surges in insurance premiums. These are excepting the losses we suffered because our homes are worth less, our jobs have been pared down to mostly lower paying jobs with smaller pay increases and our ability to obtain credit has diminished.

These revolutionary changes are the core that effects the common American, the "bread and butter" of life our happiness and our future. Americans are increasingly paring back, and cutting back across the board. We are taking more modest family vacations, or none at all. We already spend less on food (about 10% of our income) less than any other industrialized nation on earth. Americans consumption of poor quality food contributes to our people being sicker than ever, with record autism, diabetes, obesity, and cancers. Hospitals have earned the disgraceful statistic of being 10Th in the world in preventing preventable deaths and our farmers are losing their markets to a merciless junk food industry.

Yet our politicians continue their unrestrained spending, have mismanaged our social security, and set aside no future investment to pay for the health care they promised. With all this bad news you would think the time to get serious would finally be upon us, but instead we were given another empty unaffordable promise called the "prescription drug bill" one that has insufficient funding and will cost more than the entire national debt of 9 Trillion..

The news on the financial markets is even more troubling as our nations industrial back bone is selling out to Chinese and Arab investors. This is happening as our country continues to borrow and print money and the dollar continues to decline. Our land and our opportunities are all but more affordable. Middle class Americans continue to struggle just to survive.

Disenfranchised and apathetic as we may be, it seems that we have all but given up on life, trivialized our right to vote, evaded participation in jury duty, or excused ourselves from taking action in defense of our dying country. The threat America faces today is from within not without. Such a threat is at the hands and ideas of our leaders faults, mistakes, and sadest of all cronyism and tyranny. This mailaise is being forced upon us by a handful of evil oligarchs whose global vision is sold to us for a huge fee; Our Country and national sovereignty.

Have we forgotten that our nation was built and based on the Bill of Rights, our U.S. Constitution, and the very freedom from a British empire that ruled men like disposable property of the king? The time is upon us again that our very rights are under attack by an elite group of individuals whose vision of America is not one that takes into consideration your job, family, children's future, or your basic needs of affordable food, clean water and a safe place to raise and interact with your family. It is a vision based on globalism, world government, and a borderless America.

Turn the television OFF, start using your own mind, look at how our leaders vote, read books, read the works of our founders, and know in your heart there is something horribly wrong in America. Find a place in your heart for our country and know the continued empty promises of our leaders, and our slide toward a fascist America is wrong. We can still work to take back our individual power in America if we stand together and believe our "own eyes and ears" rather than the unbelievable news that mocks us daily with jobs reports, inflation reports and market data.

Believe in yourself, believe in America, find the answers and protect our country as if your own son or daughter. America needs you now more than ever!
