CONGRESS: Hear citizen outrage

| August 13, 2014 9:00 PM

To Senator Risch, Senator Crapo, Representative Labrador:

Is Congress driven by mass stupidity, insanity or treason? The solutions to our problems are not so difficult that they cannot be achieved.

Our borders and shores are wide open to illegal aliens, drug runners, enemy agents and whoever feels like entering. Meanwhile, our military, whose primary duty is protecting the homeland from invasion, is scattered over the globe making enemies, minding other people’s business, fighting wars arranged by bankers and Big Oil, and getting sandwiched between religious zealots determined to kill each other.

A hundred years ago your predecessors performed an outrageous act of treason by creating the Federal Reserve. They turned over control of our monetary system to a cabal of foreign bankers and they have robbed us blind ever since. The Constitution for the United States of America gives you the authority to create our money but not to borrow every cent you spend. If the Fed can print worthless paper and have you accept it as “money,” why not print your own and send them packing? That portion of the national debt that is purportedly owed to the Fed was created by fraud and is uncollectable. According to the original Constitution, you and your agents have no authority outside of the District of Columbia and other federal territories. Your overlay of “federal districts” on the sovereign states is total fraud. Most of your federal agencies are also fraudulent and have no business being armed.

Various sources put federal employees around 12 million with an average salary of $85,000. That is ridiculous.

Since when did Executive Orders becoming law turn constitutional?

We are not taking proper care of our veterans and seniors, but you are spending billions bribing foreign politicians to pretend cooperation.

Since government got into health care and education, the costs have skyrocketed while the quality has plunged.

Our industrial base has been decimated by outrageous union demands, taxes and regulation. Employers have had to shut down or go overseas, taking their jobs with them.

The VA mess is a perfect example of outrageous incompetence.

Who appointed the American taxpayer to be the “sugar daddy” to everyone worldwide who cannot manage their own affairs?

It is high time to apply some common sense to leadership.
