Mind games part of control
Do you feel more controlled today than you did yesterday?
Part of the Obamination’s plan is just as much mind control as actual personnel moves and policy changes. Two recent mind games are good examples of his control schemes.
This guy is full of more stuffing than a Christmas turkey. He announces a spending program of $3.6 Trillion and then tries to impress us with programs he calls savings. Another hoax in a series of mind control moves that are meant to disguise the enormity of his spending.
A week ago he announced, with a massive fanfare, that he had told his lieutenants they had to find ways to save $100 million in their budgets this year. Whow! And this week he announced he was going to get another $100 million in tax revenues from U.S. manufacturers who don’t collect sales taxes overseas on the pretense these newly collected taxes would directly help job creation. Another sham!
His multi-billion so-called stimulus hasn’t created enough jobs to talk about. We’re still losing jobs. It isn’t taxes, folks, it’s control.
Do you know how little $100 million is in terms of $3.4 trillion? I don’t. The Heritage Foundation was good enough to prepare a chart that compares his billions to his trillions. I can’t illustrate here but I can describe it so you get the picture.
Draw an oval 4 1/2” wide and 5” high. Then put a single pencil dot in the middle. That’s how little $100 mIllion is in his total spending program of $3.6 trillion. It’s essentially one snow flake in an acre of snow and inconsequential in terms of the money he throws around.
Another way to look at the enormity of his $3.6 trillion budget is to express it as a time/dollar factor, a single second being one dollar. A trillion seconds is equal to 32,000 years. A trillion dollars is 32,000 years — $3.6 trillion dollars is 112,000 years. Isn’t that a grand number!
Tax and spend is all he has on his mind and all other events are side shows. He would have us think he is our shining knight to the rescue with inconsequential budget ploys.
It’s all control, folks!
