The Green Job and Liberal Idiocy

I was visiting my family in San Diego and discussing "Green Jobs".   My step daughter was contending that President Obama had created millions of "Green Jobs".  They are just cropping up everywhere. 

Not according to the national unemployment rates.   

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2009/03/03/us/20090303_LEONHARDT.html

Being rather open minded, I started off in search of anyone who had actually witnessed a "Green Job".  The only ones I could find seem to be government employees who are responsible for accounting for "Green Jobs"....Even they are losing their jobs.

Where or where could a green job be?

... And then I found it ... A Green Job.   

As I was walking along the trail bordering the beach... 

I saw it.   

A middle aged white male was lamenting the end of his unemployment benefits.   He was talking to a friend who was unloading his surfing gear, about the friend's recent unemployment.   

The first gentleman had experienced a full dose of  President Obama's "trickle up poverty".  He had received 6 months of termination benefits and extended unemployment benefits.   The later unemployed had not.   They both had lost their homes, and were about to lose their cars.  The first had also lost his wife and family.  The stress of trickle up poverty, spreading the wealth,  seems very real, to those not affirmed by the government or its preferred unions.

But then...out of the corner of my eye...along came a well groomed, well attired middle aged white male riding a bicycle.  He had three baskets.  One on each side of the rear tire and a front basket.  He stopped at each waste receptacle and rummaged for the plastic, aluminum and paper he could extract.  He then carefully placed them in a plastic bag (sorted by basket).  In a former time, he would have sought venture capital, founded a company.   Obama and the federal government now consume virtually all credit.  Some small amount remaining is dispersed based on government priorities.  The green job agenda...a nice bicycle?

   

Not to belittle the point I had witnessed a "Green Job" ... the first and only one to be witnessed personally by anyone I know.

Well so much for poppycock.   Sort of.

I was discussing politics with two liberal associates at a local pub. They are both beyond "just" liberal.  They are extreme.   As we would debate, the often quoted "Obama" truths... as they had no facts other than Obama truths. I had misquoted the population of Afghanistan.   I thought it was a small poor country, on the order of Colorado in size/population.  They were quick to point out (after IPod lookup)  that I was off by a digit.   It was more like an impoverished Florida. 

[Note]

An Obama truth is a statement made by  President Obama, which is then held out as truth, simply because President Obama uttered it.  If spoken loudly enough it carries more weight.

....

We ventured into the topic of immigration reform.  

Liberal ...

Their belief was that the United States should not discriminate against any person from any country, total inclusion... sort off.   For example, sealing our border is illegal and racist, unless we deny access to all persons from all countries.  We have no right to impede anyone from crossing the border whether by air or ground.  Also, we should focus "quotas" for access based on education level, or other metrics determined by liberal government employees.  

Me ...

I wonder who  an immigrant college professor would vote for?

I pointed out that my preference would be to have open borders and friendly/welcoming work policies for our neighbors.  I would like to restore manufacturing, have low cost/taxation manufacturing zones both with Canada and Mexico.  I would double the GDP by eliminating taxes which affect cost of goods sold, restore self sufficiency.  I wanted to bring and end to our good neighbors having to hide in the shadows... just to work?  

Liberal ...

They called me racist and discriminatory.

Their is no such thing as a neighbor.    

How could I exclude the Middle East, Asia.  

Mexicans (they pointed out) are poorly educated and only capable of jobs Americans prefer not to do.  

Chinese, Russians, Saudis they are well educated and capable of significant contributions.

Me ...

I defined a neighbor as someone  who can simply walk over when they come to visit.

Neighbors are welcomed. 

I tried to point out that their approach was elitist and naive, as it discriminated against the poor and disadvantaged who could not afford an airline ticket and passport.

I also indicated that they could be educated and would be capable of  higher level employment, limited only by their ambition and ability.   

Liberal ...

Ha.. one had spent extensive time in Arizona.  I can be assured they are not capable...  

Me...

Really?

I pointed out that Mexico and the vast majority of Mexicans are our good neighbors, and should be welcomed to work in our country, but must earn citizenship.  As a country we are no longer trying to settle a frontier.  Guest workers should be welcome, as long as they obey our laws, but they are not automatically entitled to citizenship.  Guest workers should have different benefits than citizens.  If they want to earn citizenship, than that should be possible. 

Liberal ...

Earn citizenship... what do I mean by that?
Racist....

Me ...

I implied spending some time, learning English and the basics of our constitution.   

English because it is the world wide language of business and I want to partner with them in commerce around the world.   Starting with south and central America.

Liberal ...

They immediately cried racist.  Earn citizenship, Am I trying to limit the vote?
They disagreed with earning citizenship or with encouraging guest worker relationships with our bordering neighbors.   Why not Iran, China or Russia? , saying that well educated Europeans/Asians/Middle Asians should be preferred... as they provide immediate value.  

Me ...
Hmm.. they could provide for more "spreading of the wealth".  

 I pointed out that they should be encouraged to visit, but should use their educations for the benefit of their own societies.   

...

The debate went on and on.  Then it dawned on me.   The liberal who has drank the cool aid is not capable of independent or pragmatic thought.   The facts and their conclusions are all predicated on liberal elitism.    They don't care or even consider that we have a responsibility to not treat an entire race(Mexican illegals) as though they are essentially slaves.   

Could it be that the party of slavery (Democrats)... the party that filibustered the civil rights vote(Democrats)  ... the party(of war) that drafted millions of poorly educated young people to fight their war in Vietnam(Democrats)...actually prefers subjugating a race for their own liberal elitist ideals?  Spreading the wealth?

They ...We

We hear all the time about the recent great recession and "They" whose behavior caused it. The issue is not just how it happend but also who are "They".


"They" are a group of real people acting in their own self interest. "They" are the democatratic leadership who took control of congress as a result of the congressional elections in November 2007. They controll 90 percent of the economy of the United States, and have for the last 3+ years.

As Rahm Emanuel says.. “Rule one: Never allow a crisis to go to waste,”. So rule ...zero... create the crisis... it will allow you to accomplish more than you could otherwise. The great recession is all about setting the stage for the progressive, socialist agenda.

"They" needed a "Perfect Storm" to accomplish "a significant majority" for change. (http://riverviewobserver.net/2008/10/2008-presidential-election-the-perfect-storm-of-an-election-is-coming-our-way%E2%80%A6/ ). This was echoed as a talking point all through the liberal presss leading up to the 2008 election.

Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Chris Dodd, Rahm Emanual and Barney Frank have been running the country since 2007. They have been in control of the house of representatives, the senate, the judiciary, administrative branches of government and the commerce/trade regulations since that time.

What is the administrative branch? After forty plus years of affirmative action, we now have a government that does not reflect the political make up of the people. If you are a goverment worker "You" work for "They".   If "You" are a government worker, almost guaranteed,  "You" are a progressive democrat. "You" control every aspect of the execution of government. "You" set the asset ratio requirements for refinancing home loans. "You" determine the requirements on a case by case basis for voter registration. "You" count the vote. You determine the demographic profile for investment, loans, hiring, health care. "You" determine whether a "bad home owner" should be grand fathered or forclosed on when disenfranchised as part of a planned perfect storm. "You" reset asset ratio requirements for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac under the direction of Barney Frank. "You" determine what the parameters will be for FHA loans and thereby create 3.5 million toxic assets... formerly valuable homes in California, Florida, Arizona, Georgia... "You" take over the banking industry and determine who succeeds and who fails. "You" transfer the wealth from one generation to the government. Wonder what "They" will do with all of the toxic assets.

After all ... We the previous owners and our equity vaporized in a massive series of terrorist attacks...Oh that didn't happen... really. While "We" are living with our parents, kids, friends, etc. "They" are trying to determine what to do with our former houses. Really "They"? The equity is go to belong to "They". ...the returned tarp funds to "They"... GM..."They" .... Chrysler... They...fill in the blanks ..."They"

Accidental? ... the great recession, the housing collapse, the devastation of the economy, 9.7 percent unemployment... Hardly ... the deliberate work of "They". Unwittenly, we have been and are continuing to be duped by a politial machine implementing National Progressivism.

"They" do not care if every middle class American is out of work or in foreclosure. When polled "They" have a positive outlook on the future of America". "They" are earning and hiring at record levels with enormous salaries (>= 170,000$ per year) and benefits (http://www.foxbusiness.com/search-results/m/27906803/report-government-pay-surging.htm).

"They" are spreading the wealth of an entire generation of working middle class Americans to themselves and their constituents. "They" are the government elite.

We are the trickle up poor. According to them, and their press, we are the bad, the socially clueless and the  guilty. 

"They" are selling this agenda via supportive government elites "to be". Through affirmative action, one group of government elites... the super preferred ... will direct commerce to lessor worker classes of government preferred/affirmed. Ultimately, we the trickle up poor will pay for our own demise.

The health care reform act is the dagger in the heart of American liberty. Progressive judges will attempt to legislate the right of government to direct purchasing of products which "They" specify. The camel's nose is already under the tent. ...optional soon to be mandatory fines, impisonment or both. If you can be forced to purchase a governement approved product, then all personal liberty in the United States is over.

"They" will direct the products to be produced and by which companies. "They" will determine the out come of every commercial... government elite approved transaction. For example, We can buy a Toyota, or Honda or VW... but only after our mandatory purchase of a Chevy Volt. We can drive your Toyota or Honda or VW, but only after paying fines, imprisonment or both. "They" of course will require a different class of vehicles to comply with security requirements and policy ... specified by "They"... so the rules do not apply to them. Their behavior is ...after all being forced by a lack of civility by We.

Germany circa 1936 and the peoples car is created.... Didn't notice any of the government elites driving them.

Did you?

The cause of all this?

"Their" liberal press that pushes guilt onto We the people, while praising socialist/progressives... "They" ...the government elite. We sat quietly for 40 plus years, but no more. The time is now or We will lose our freedom forever. Every time "They" try to push their agenda, their guilt, their propaganda, their rules, their regulations; we need to be in their face, pushing back.

For each and every action their must be an equal or greater reaction. Their new talking point is civility. Make them practice it. Push back. We are the people. "They" are the government elite. "They" are attempting to control every aspect of our lives. "They" destroyed the economy of the world to create crisis. Tens of millions of people jobless, millions more home less, economic devastation across America's richest states. Simply because "They" no longer are reflective of We the people.
