Peter Smith: Open Letter to “Generation Screwed” - TheHuffingtonPost.com

And you really are screwed, you know. These jokers are borrowing the money to fund the war in Iraq, and putting your name down as co-signer. They’re not raising taxes to pay for it. They’re borrowing it.

My question is: Do we really need to bankrupt future generations to fight the war on Terror?. Let’s assume that we are not just in Iraq for the oil, and killing 1 million Iraqi’s was actually going to create less “terrorist”, shouldn’t we at least try and cut back on spending elsewhere in order to cover some of the expense?

No President has ever gone to war and not asked Americans to conserve, or contribute (through taxes), to the effort. But you know, raising taxes has never been very popular. By borrowing from future generations Bush can pay for the war without adding to his popularity issues. How many more people do you think would be protesting this war if we had to pay out of our own pockets?

AmericanFreedomPress - Ron Paul Fights Powerful Plutocracy

Article - Ron Paul Fights Powerful Plutocracy - AmericanFreedomPress.com

America is a carefully concealed oligarchy. A few thousand people, mostly in government, finance, and the military-industrial complex, run this country for their own purposes. By manipulating the two-party system, influencing the mainstream media, and controlling the flow of campaign finance money, this oligarchy works to secure the nomination of its preferred candidates (Democratic and Republican alike), thus giving voters a “choice” between Puppet A and Marionette B. Unlike the establishment’s candidates, Paul is a freelancer running on specific ideas. The federal government must function within the strict guidelines of the Constitution, should deconstruct its empire, withdraw troops from around the world, reestablish a foreign policy based on noninterventionism, abolish the Federal Reserve Bank, eliminate fiat currency and return to hard money
