How damn dumb are these “Mainstream Republican” leaders? You are all aware of the local (Pennington County) Register Of Deeds race between Donna Mayer and Jordan Mason. Do you know the rest of the story?

The Social Security Administration was created in 1935 and oversees three huge unconstitutional programs that provide benefits to millions of Americans: Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI), Disability Insurance (SSDI), and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). SSA consumes one-quarter of the us budget, spending $914 billion a year, around $7,600 for each U.S. household.

Resistance is futile. That’s the latest word from Republican leadership in Washington, D.C. on getting rid of Obamacare — or apparently accomplishing much of anything else, for that matter.

Every once in a while, a politician feels comfortable enough to share his/her inner thoughts about colleagues, issues and the grassroots.

Except for the small amount of land listed in the Constitution, it is clear that the federal government is not supposed to own property within the United States. The Constitution cannot be faulted for the federal land grab that has been detrimental to the economy and well-being of the States. The States have allowed this invasion of unconstitutional federal power.

For every 8-hour workday, we labor for 2 hours and 26 minutes to pay federal, state and local taxes. Without taxes, you could leave your job every day at 2:34 p.m. and earn the same salary.

The public school system is near collapse right now. I don’t think it would be a bad thing, actually. When an institution is so badly damaged, and no longer serves it’s primary purpose, it SHOULD be trashed and a new institution begun in its place. Create an Institution to educate our kids. They’re not getting an eduction today. They’re getting an indoctrination.

Mom used to say, “the truth hurts.” In this media heightened age of information, the many personalities which we have come to respect are beginning to trip over their own importance. Digress I must for a step back is essential.
