ONE ELECTED PRESIDENT AND 535 "ACTING PRESIDENTS"

The Washington belt-way is a place where super-egos cross paths and breakdown everything. And the problem is that the United States, at any given time, has one elected President as C.E.O. of the world's largest corporation - United States Inc. - and 535 "acting-as-presidents" to delay, foul up or stop from solving the nation's pressing problems. Here are a few of major problems that need to be solved:

1. SOCIAL SECURITY: The "pay-as-you-go" social security system is the world's largest pyramid scheme. Its a 15% tax on workers and after thirty years of work if you die within a week after your retirement YOU LOSE EVERYTHING. The democrats tout social security is the greatest thing since slice bread. How so? 18 million government bureaucrats and elected politicians don't trust social security and they have their own secured pension. Why?

2. INCOME TAX: The internal revenue code is the world's most complicated, confusing system of rules and regulations. It is so complicated that even the Income Tax Commissioner gets someone else to do his taxes! It is true. And so does the tax expert Henry Block! Half of all taxpayers pay 97% of the tax and the other half pays 3% and "all men are created equal?"

3. EXCESSIVE GOV PAY: The average pay of a federal bureaucrat is $33, for state and local government bureaucrat it is $28 and for an average American worker in the private sector it is $17.00. The fact is that it is the TAXES COLLECTED FROM THE PRIVATE WORKER that pays for government bureaucrats. If you make $10.00 an hour can you hire a baby-sitter at $15.00 an hour to watch your baby so that you can go to work? The math wouldn't add up!

4. THE ULTIMATE KILL: So far the politicians and their buddies in bureaucracy and organized unions have been robbing us, and with the Supreme Court decision on eminent domain in June, 2005, now many local governments are embarking on a crusade for THE ULTIMATE KILL - to take our homes and properties and give it to some RICH DEVELOPERS!

AMERICA, it is time to wake up!
