GENERATIONAL THEFT


I’ve seen the pithy quote that says, “I’m spending my children’s inheritance.” We smile wryly with some understanding, realizing that it takes just about everything we make to just get by in today’s world.


But Congress has taken it to an all-new unbelievable level. They’re not just spending our children’s inheritance; they’re stealing from several generations. Without any regard for the future generations who will have to pay the bill, or live in abject poverty because of the destruction of our economic system, our Congress continues to spend.

You can’t spend your way to prosperity. Anyone with a scintilla of a brain knows this without being told.

Worse than that, IT IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!! That Constitution that they all pledged to uphold and defend against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, is being violated by those who “solemnly swore.”

I quote, “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to OURSELVES and OUR POSTERITY, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” The oppression of overwhelming debt will stifle “the blessings of liberty” for our posterity, if liberty even exists as a result of this GENERATIONAL THEFT.

Our political leaders, on so many issues, try to get our support by saying, “Oh this is for the children.” Get real!! If Congress were really concerned about the children, all of this spending would stop!!
