Citizenship

I understand that our country has always had the policy that anyone born here is automatically a citizen, but WHY is that? If the parents are citizens, then no matter where a baby is born, that person should be a citizen. However, I don't think that just because the mothers manage to illegally get through the borders should be a reason to be made a citizen.

This is a problem which is going to get worse instead of better because the illegal immigrants in this country are breeding at a much faster rate than previously known. As citizens, these babies are going to place more and more demands on the social services and the school system. Services paid for by our tax dollars, not their parents, who as illegals may not be paying any taxes.

Bailout Bullshit

Why is it that we're now spending time, energy, and tons of money to make sure the people who shouldn't have been able to purchase their houses in the first place, don't lose their houses? People who live beyond their means should not be coddled. They should be punished otherwise how are they going to learn their lessons? Foreclosures on houses, failing businesses, repossessed cars - those are the indicators that should tell you that hey, you're over-reaching and should rein in your spending. But no, instead we're giving them handouts (also known as WELFARE), forgiveness, and not even a slap on the wrist.

When our children blow their allowances, do we just keep giving them money? No, we tell the child to spend more wisely and suggest ways for them to earn additional funds, but we don't keep giving them money. We shouldn't otherwise they won't learn the value of a hard-earned dollar.

Apparently no one seems to know the value of a hard-earned dollar.

Um, I'm sorry, but what?

So the president who ran under the whole "The Irag war is bad and we need to bring those people home" banner is now sending 17,000 additional American troops into Afghanistan.

Which, from I've read and heard, is more dangerous than Iraq.

Can you say big fat fucking liar?!

What the hell is wrong with the people running this country? I mean, really. How on EARTH is it even fair, possible, or fiscally responsible to be giving tax refunds to people who don't even earn enough to PAY taxes? Why should they be getting money for doing nothing? Is this going to be another welfare program? Why should MY tax money go to people who don't pay taxes at all? And if they're going to do that, why SHOULD I be compelled to even pay my taxes?

That being said, how on earth are we going to make things right since we cannot depend on our government to do anything but throw money at problems in order to make them go away? What can we as average citizens do to help out the morons who have spent how many years with the heads stuck up their asses?

Going with Obama's divide, I should think that the people who earn at least $250K have a responsibility to continue to spend money. Those people should be going out to dinner, getting that new computer/phone/game system, splurging on their coffees, their lattes, their magazines...

American is a consumer-based economy; we have to continue to consume. That being said, the people under that divide who don't have enough to spend on frivolous purchases should start saving and paying down their debt. They are the people who need to stop spending money beyong their means. These are the people who bought houses they could barely afford and contributed to the mortgage crisis we are dealing with currently.

Consequently, they're probably the same fuckers who get a tax refund.

Litters of babies

It should be socially unacceptable for a woman to give birth to a litter of babies. Eight babies should be counted as a litter. It should outrage people to discover that she was purposefully implanted with frozen embryos and has no job, probably no health insurance, no husband, lives with her parents, and already has six children including a set of twins.

What was this woman thinking? What kind of doctor would be okay with implanting eight embryos? Interviews with doctors regarding this are outraged, no one admits anything, and she’s not talking.

Who gave that doctor their license? How are these things regulated? And if they are regulated, should that process be re-evaluated at this point?

They are ridiculously small, run the risks for tons of health issues, and will probably end up with learning problems as well. No insurance means that in the long run, it is the American taxpayer’s money paying for this health bill. Why is that a good idea? Plus, learning issues means more early intervention special education at the public schools. More tax money spent on special education for children that shouldn’t exist.

Yes, I’m harsh. This is R. I. D. I. C. U. L. O. U. S. And I am not afraid to say so.
