As we all know the Democrats are all for helping people with a flood of government programs. Here is there latest platform of government programs released just in time for the mid-term elections:



Due to the current sequester, the Democrats has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 60 years of age and above on early, mandatory retirement, thus creating jobs and reducing unemployment.

This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).

Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to the Government to be considered for the SHAFT program (Special Help After Forced Termination).

Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (System Covering Retired-Early Workers).

A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as the Government deems appropriate.

Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependents & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).

Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by the Government.

Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much SHIT (Special High Intensity Training) as possible. The Democrats has always prided themselves on the amount of SHIT they give citizens.

Should you feel that you do not receive enough SHIT, please bring this to the attention of your Democrat Representative, who has been trained to give you all the SHIT you can handle, sending Democrat groups such as Occupy Wallstreet, ANTIFA or the UCLA student body to come ask you to shut up and go away.

Sincerely,

The Democrat Party, the Committee for Economic Value of Individual Lives (E.V.I.L.) and the FBDNCI (Federal Bureau and Democrat National Committee of Investigation)

Now for a much needed history lesson. Please read this and share it before we are in another bloody Civil War and then real chains. This article was written by a genius. So, since we know that to be true, we are all also well aware that Faldo had nothing to do with it.

Democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, seeking to represent New York’s 14th Congressional District, has called for the abolition of the Electoral College. 

Her argument came on the heels of the Senate’s confirming Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. She was lamenting the fact that Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito, nominated by George W. Bush, and Justices Neil Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, nominated by Donald Trump, were court appointments made by presidents who lost the popular vote but won the Electoral College vote.

Hillary Clinton has long been a critic of the Electoral College. Just recently, she wrote in The Atlantic, “You won’t be surprised to hear that I passionately believe it’s time to abolish the Electoral College.” [That is all you need to know when a dictator wanna be is for abolishing something - Faldo]

Subjecting presidential elections to the popular vote sounds eminently fair to Americans who have been mis-educated by public schools and universities. Worse yet, the call to eliminate the Electoral College reflects an underlying contempt for our Constitution and its protections for personal liberty. 

Regarding mis-education, the founder of the Russian Communist Party, Vladimir Lenin, said, “Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” His immediate successor, Josef Stalin, added, “Education is a weapon whose effect depends on who holds it in his hands and at whom it is aimed.”

A large part of Americans’ miseducation is the often heard claim that we are a democracy. The word “democracy” appears nowhere in the two most fundamental documents of our nation — the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. In fact, our Constitution — in Article 4, Section 4 — guarantees “to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government.” 

The Founding Fathers had utter contempt for democracy. James Madison, in Federalist Paper No. 10, said that in a pure democracy, “there is nothing to check the inducements to sacrifice the weaker party or an obnoxious individual.” 

At the 1787 Constitutional Convention, Virginia Gov. Edmund Randolph said that “in tracing these evils to their origin, every man had found it in the turbulence and follies of democracy.” 

John Adams wrote: “Remember Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts and murders itself. There never was a Democracy Yet, that did not commit suicide.” 

At the Constitutional Convention, Alexander Hamilton said: “We are now forming a republican government. Real liberty” is found not in “the extremes of democracy but in moderate governments. … If we incline too much to democracy, we shall soon shoot into a monarchy.”

For those too dense to understand these arguments, ask yourselves: Does the Pledge of Allegiance say “to the democracy for which it stands” or “to the republic for which it stands”? Did Julia Ward Howe make a mistake in titling her Civil War song “Battle Hymn of the Republic”? Should she have titled it “Battle Hymn of the Democracy”?

The Founders saw our nation as being composed of sovereign states that voluntarily sought to join a union under the condition that each state admitted would be coequal with every other state. The Electoral College method of choosing the president and vice president guarantees that each state, whether large or small in area or population, has some voice in selecting the nation’s leaders. 

Were we to choose the president and vice president under a popular vote, the outcome of presidential races would always be decided by a few highly populated states. They would be states such as California, Texas, Florida, New York, Illinois and Pennsylvania, which contain 134.3 million people, or 41 percent of our population. 

Presidential candidates could safely ignore the interests of the citizens of Wyoming, Alaska, Vermont, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and Delaware. Why? They have only 5.58 million Americans, or 1.7 percent of the U.S. population. We would no longer be a government “of the people”; instead, our government would be put in power by and accountable to the leaders and citizens of a few highly populated states.

Political satirist H.L. Mencken said, “The kind of man who wants the government to adopt and enforce his ideas is always the kind of man whose ideas are idiotic.” - Walter E. Williams

Now some facts of life. The kind of facts that drive liberals even crazier than they already are:

Faldo was asked about Single Payer (Socialist/communist) health care and why it doesn't work. Faldo uses the words of that conservative genius Ben Shapiro (TheDailyWire) here:


If you needed an X-ray or a chair to save your life, you could figure out how much you could spend for the chair and pick the one you both needed and could afford. 
Probably picking the best chair you could afford, using all available sales and coupons.
Good luck with an X-ray.

The medical industry is not a free market. It is completely government, insurance company and medical field controlled.
You cannot look up X-ray companies and compare prices.
If you ask how much an X-ray costs, no one can tell you.
Is there any other commodity or industry in the USA where if you ask how much will it cost – they tell you – have it done first and we will tell you the price later?

Health care is not a right! It is a commodity just like anything else.
If you treat it as the commodity it actually is, it will be higher quality, more abundant, more competition and cheaper.

If you say it is a right, then government clamps down and tells doctors they must serve you at a particular price.
Incentive and motivation to improve or become the best or the cheapest goes out the window.
Quality suffers immediately and the quantity available will soon deteriorate after that.

Insurance companies become simply wealth redistribution institutes aligned with the government or go out of business. If government makes insurance companies cover pre-existing conditions, then it is no longer insurance.
 
If your house burns down with no coverage, you can’t run out and pay $500 for a year’s policy on your house and then collect $300,000 to rebuild your house. Insurance doesn’t work like that. If it does, it is a free money store, and not an insurance company.

Lasik eye surgery is a perfect example - because it is unregulated. Insurance companies don’t cover it. When it first was introduced, it cost $20,000 per eye. Now it costs $3000 per eye and the technology and quality is much improved. And there are no long lines to get treatment.

This is why we are getting a flood of ROAD doctors – Radiologists, Optimologists, Anestegeologists and Dermatologists, because there are no regulations and the profits are better. There is also a lot of competition so the quality and costs are lower, because is usually a cash business.

The counter claim the Left makes is that Lasik surgery is a choice. Heart surgery usually is not!

True. But the free market would still work. People would seek out and research where to get this type of treatment, should it be needed. Just as we do car repairs or where we buy our groceries. People would have places they would go to have that type of surgery picked out in advance.

Today, if you want to make a lot of money as a doctor, you don’t become a primary care physician, you become a ROAD doctor. Hence, a shortage of primary care doctors and long lines and waits at the doctor’s offices.

The Left declares health care a right, and then take away the incentive to provide the service. As usual, the Left screws up everything with their Marxist agenda. They tell the doctor, you are going to work for what we tell you to work for and you will like it! This of course would no longer be the first choice of people wanting to go into medicine. Doctors are usually smart people and smart people don't usually sign up for slavery.

That is why there is a Black Market in healthcare in every socialized medicine nation in the world. It’s a “right” but to move anywhere near the front of the line to get it, you better have a lot of cash paid under the table to get your right.

The Left promises free stuff. There is no free stuff unless someone else somewhere is getting nothing for something.

GMOGolf Wins for the 3rd Time in 2018 - and Blondes Rule

And now - a Ode to Blondes


THE PORCH

A young blonde girl in her late teens, wanting to earn some extra money for the summer, decided to hire herself out as a "handy woman" and started canvassing a nearby well-to-do neighborhood. She went to the front door of the first house and asked the owner if he had any odd jobs for her to do.

"Well, I guess I could use somebody to paint the porch" he said. "How much will you charg...e me?" Delighted, the girl quickly responded, "How about $50?" The man agreed and told her that the paint and brushes and everything she would need were in the garage.

The man's wife, hearing the conversation, said to her husband, "Does she realize our porch goes all the way around the house?"
"That's a bit cynical, isn't it?" he responded.
The wife replied, "You're right. I guess I'm starting to believe all those dumb blonde jokes."

A few hours later the blonde came to the door to collect her money.
"You're finished already??" the startled husband asked.
"Yes," the blonde replied, "and I even had paint left over so I gave it two coats."
Impressed, the man reached into his pocket for the $50 and handed it to her along with a $10 tip.

"Thank you," the blonde said, "And, by the way, it's not a Porch, it's a Lexus."
