Fed Reserve Buying Up US Treasuries--What do you think???

The Federal Reserve Bank has announced that it will begin purchasing US Treasury Bonds from the US Treasury. Typically the US Treasury will put these out for auction and someone else will come in and purchase them, like China for example.

This struck me as very odd.

So my question is what do you make of this?

Tax Day Tea Party--The Revolution Is Growing

So it looks as though the Tea Party movement is gaining steam nationwide. There are now 150 Tea Parties scheduled nationwide for April 15th 2009, Tax day. So if you are sick of how the federal government is spending our money you need to join in protest. I have a feeling that these parties are going to blow Washington's mind. You definately want to be part of this.

"The Last House On The Left"

Just came across this trailer, I thought it looked like a really good movie.

How do you know your shopping in Texas?

Food For Thought

Given the current status of the country I thought these 2 quotes would be fitting. Our founding fathers were a smart bunch.

"We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt" -Thomas Jefferson


"To contract new debts is not the way to pay for old ones" -George Washington

I could find many more fitting quotes, but I won't, I just want you to think about those 2 and reflect on them.

Our government is currently doing what our founding fathers said it shouldn't. We are passing a huge burden onto our children and our grandchildren.

We have allowed government to grow so large, that people feel like there is nothing they can do. We need to remember that our government answers to US not the other way around. We must make our voices heard before it is too late.

Patrick Henry said: "Our constitution is...an instrument for it's people to restrain the government". However, we are allowing them to erode our rights and act in ways that serve their interests instead of ours.

I often sit and wonder at what point Americans are going to wake up and finally realize the magnitude of what is going on. Will this happen when it is too late? When we have lost all of our rights and are powerless to do nothing?

Currently, we hold all the power, we outnumber them...We just need to stand up and make our voice heard, while there is still time to make a difference!
