Middle Class Suckers

Because of the demented twisting of “… separation between ” C&%*#! ” & State” the following should be outlawed as they clearly violate the newly believed intent:

– Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. It is a Christian holiday. Surely this is the first to go. And for the few that make claims that this was first a pagan holiday, have at it. Pagan religions are still religions.

– Easter is no longer tolerated. This again is a Christian holiday and unabashedly so must go.

– Thanksgiving, “…as a day of public fasting or thanksgiving” is not to be tolerated. Fasting is the fourth of the Five Pillars of Islam. The pilgrims celebrated “thanksgivings”, days of prayer thanking God for blessings. Two reglions means double the trouble.

– Saint Patrick’s Day is unconscionable. There is no celebrating any Christian saints.

– Halloween, or “all hallows’ eve” is the day to oppose “all saints’ day” and is a day of worship for satan cults. This holiday is banished.

– President’s Day, or Washington’s Birthday shall be chopped from the list of federal holidays. We cannot observe a day for people that take their oath of office by putting their hand on a religious icon.

– Valentine’s Day, shall be shot through the heart because it is a feast to yet another Christian Saint, Saint Valentine.

– New Years Day, which is January 1st on the Juian calendar corresponds to January 14th on the Gregorian calendar, and it is on that date that the followers of some of the Eastern Orthodox C&%*#!s celebrate new year. Any Eastern Orthodox celebration will not be considered a national holiday.

– Martin Luther King Jr Day – shall be forgotten because we can’t set aside a day in remembrance for a Baptist Minister as a national holiday.

– Independence Day – we shall sever our ties with this day because we cannot celebrate a day when we signed a document that declares each of us to be a free person because we are endowed with unalienable rights from our Creator. Many do not believe in a Creator.

– Columbus Day – we shall not allow a Christian organization, the Knights of Columbus, to lobby for a holiday to suit their own needs. This was not of secular origin and therefore will not stand.

Therefore, and hence the days forward we will have two observed federal holidays:
Labor Day and Memorial Day.

We are not done just yet. That just covers holidays. Let us be thorough and ensure a fuller separation from C&%*#! and State. Wiki tells us:

The present-day concept of the weekend first arose from the Dies Solis (Day of the Sun) decreed by Constantine and from Biblical Sabbath. The Christian Sabbath itself was just one day eash week, but the preceding day (the Jewish Sabbath) also came to be taken as a holiday in the twentieth century.

No day shall be a day of rest because it is either a Christian or Jewish day of rest. Therefore we will move to a 7 day work week to ensure to unentangle our federal government from any of these religious underpinnings.

Therefore the above shall apply to the following:

• Teachers in each and every public school, at all levels.
• Postal workers get more time to ensure our mail gets delivered in a timely fashion with the new 7 day work week.
• All other un-named government workers.
• Anybody receiving grant money, including Big Bird and his friends.
• All persons working on the roads, bridges, and any other public works projects.
• Students in any public school now have a 7 day school week. (If we can’t subject them to Christmas carols and/or plays, we certainly can’t expect them to take off the Jewish and Christian Sabbaths.) Private schools that do not receive tax dollars can continue with a five day school week if they desire.
• Those working at GM and Chysler are currently required to follow this seven day work week because we the people, in the form of the federal government, own stock in those companies.
• Those receiving government benefits also cannot observe any of these religious days. The government cannot support a lifestyle that takes the Jewish and Christian holy days off, so there will be new requirements concerning payment distributions.

To ensure the government isn’t promoting these filthy religious ideals on those that receive government benefits, they will now only be distributed daily, in person, with photo id. Just drop by your local government services office during business hours to receive your daily allotment of whatever you believe you deserve. Benefits not claimed on the day they are available will be forfeited to the State because the “work” required to obtain them was not completed. We cannot observe religious holidays when giving out government benefits.

We sincerely ask that you explain to your children why the holidays are no longer allowed to be celebrated and why they now have to attend school seven days a week instead of five. It is for the good of America and what the writers of our great founding documents truly envisioned for this fine nation. One more step towards separation of C&%*#! and State!

There is some debate as to whether America arose because of what the federal government did for the people versus what the people did on their own because the federal government didn’t get in their way. Lets start at the beginning with the pilgrims since they are considered the group that got the ball rolling. This group started in England, but left due to religious persecution. Homes were raided and several were arrested before the remaining members fled to the Netherlands. Even there the English authorities attempted to arrest one of their members because of his writings. So they fled even further, getting a land patent from the London Virginia Company to settle in what is now the United States of America. They got financing from the Merchant Adventurers and traveled across the Atlantic on the Mayflower. That winter in 1620 was so harsh that only seven residences (of a planned nineteen) and four common houses were constructed during the first winter.

Quoting as best I can without mistake from “Of Plimoth plantation” by William Bradford, page 110, which puts us near the end of 1621

After y departure this ship, (which stayed not above 14 days,) the Gove’ & his assistante haveing disposed these late moers into severall families, as y best could, tooke an exacte accounte all their provissions in store, and proportioned y same to y number persons, and found that it would not hould out above 6. monthat at halfe alowance, and hardly that.

In 1622 they received provisions that “yet Gods blesing it upheld them till harvest. It arose but to a quarter of a pound of bread a day to each person” Here is what is written about the 1622 harvest: “Now y wellcome time harvest aproached, in which all had thir hungrie bellies filled. But it arose but to a litle, in comparison a full years supplie;… Also much was stolne both by night & day, before it became scarce eatable, & much more afterward.”

What is important about this? Some people were being pursecuted for their beliefs and writings, even after moving to another country. Their government was persecuting them even when they left their country. They went to private companies, the London Virginia Company and the the Merchant Adventurers, to get a new start in another land. They didn’t go to a government, but private companies. Since they really didn’t know the true power of private property they started by setting up a communal system that failed miserably. They were barely able to feed themselves and much of what they grew they themselves stole from the common fields. So how did this grow into the world’s strongest superpower? Again, let’s go to William Bradford’s writtings: Of Plymouth Plantation, 1620-1647

All this while no supply was heard of, neither knew they when they might expecte any. So they begane to thinke how they might raise as much corne as they could, and obtaine a better crop than they had done, that they might not still thus languish in misery. At length, after much debate of things, the Gov[erno]r (with the advise of the chiefest amongst them) gave way that they should set corne every man for his owne particular, and in that regard trust to themselves; in all other things to goe on in the generall way as before. And so assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number for that end, only for present use (but made no division for inheritance), and ranged all boys and youth under some family. This had very good success; for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corne was planted than other ways would have been by any means the Gov[erno]r or any other could use, and saved him a great deall of trouble, and gave far better content. The women now wente willingly., into the field, and tooke their little-ones with them to set corne, which before would allege weakness, and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression.’

Edited version of chapter 16 (Of Ply Plant)

All this while no supply was heard of, neither knew they when they might expect any. So they began to think how they might raise as much corn as they could, and obtain a better crop than they had done, that they might not still thus languish in misery. At length, after much debate of things, the Governor (with the advice of the chiefest amongst them) gave way that they should set corn every man for his own particular, and in that regard trust to themselves; in all other things to go on in the general way as before. And so assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number, for that end, only for present use (but made no division for inheritance) and ranged all boys and youth under some family. This had very good success, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the Governor or any other could use, and saved him a great deal of trouble, and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn; which before would allege weakness and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression.
The experience that was had in this common course and condition, tried sundry years and that amongst godly and sober men, may well evince the vanity of that conceit of Plato’s and other ancients applauded by some of later times; that the taking away of property and bringing in community into a commonwealth would make them happy and flourishing; as if they were wiser than God.

Oh, very interesting indeed. So they divided up the land and let each family grow their own corn. No longer did they have socializied food production. And the results were greatly improved. That was one of the basic tenants that made America rise to power in a few short decades, and pass up century old countries. Private property ownership. You owned your land, and you got to keep the results of your own labors. Their fair share was 100% of their labor. Their fair share was not paying for their neighbors’ shelter, clothing, food, medical care, retirement, or other desires.

So what about these infamous roads and bridges? If the federal government created them, then we would not had any until the founding of our federal government in 1776. That obviously is not the case. So roads and bridges came before the federal government was established. But some argue that sure, there were roads and bridges, but not that many. Or they weren’t good ones. And that is the reason our country grew? Looking at the date congress passed the Federal- Aid Road Act of 1916, proves otherwise. We were already a world-super power with the world’s third largest navy and were producing so many goods that went to Britian, France, and Russia that the trade inbalances were destroying the value of the French currency and had already done so with the Russian currency. So again, we were already a global power prior to federal government taxing the successul private sector for money to build roads and bridges. Businesses were created, and built, and grew long before the federal government started building roads and bridges.

Even today, many roads and bridges aren’t initially built by the federal government, state government, or even the local government. Today, most are built by land developers, using privately invested funds. They don’t use tax dollars. They buy the land, put in roads, bridges, curbs, and sidewalks. Anything that is needed. They lay water, gas and sewer lines. Power and phones lines are run. Then they divide up the land, build houses and sell them. These roads, bridges, some of the water and sewer lines are taken over by the government and then maintained. The sidewalks and some water and sewer lines are taken over by the new home owners. Federal government You didn’t build that.

The phone lines started with dedicated lines run from one house to another with a phone on each end. If the same house wanted to talk with a second house, a second line was run and they had two phones. Today the telecommunications companies, which are private companies, own the phone lines. Federal government You didn’t build that.

Power plants and power lines also started by private individuals. Power plants and transmission lines today are privately owned for the most part. Federal government You didn’t build that. Hoover Dam is probably one of the biggest known exceptions. But many successful businesses were created and our country was a world super power prior to these federal government additions to our infrastructure.
The same can be said for gas lines. Federal government You didn’t build that.
The same for cell phone towers. Federal government You didn’t build that.
The same for radio stations/towers. Federal government You didn’t build that.
The same for televisions stations/towers. Federal government You didn’t build that.

So who built that? The private sector built that. You DID build that! And when it wasn’t built by the private sector, it was the taxes of successful people in the private sector that funded what little the government did build.
