Imagine spending money all day everyday and never having to answer for it.

Imagine a million gov’t employees doing the same. Every. Dam. Day. And NO accountability.

Think about the shenanigans you could conjure.

The unaccountable spending has gone on for decades, many decades, and no one has any idea how much has been spent. That $38til is just a wild assed guessed with no way to prove it. There is no audit on anything.

20 years ago there was a long and intense article on Lew Rockwell’s site that was very well written to where even a cave man could understand it. It laid it all out in detail and the gist of it was that the best unbiased guess is, at that time (20 years ago) the US gov’t was in debt more than 200,000 trillion dollars. Read that again. I don’t know if my keyboard has that many zeros in it, let’s see. $2,000,000,000,000,000,000.00

OK, I had to make a deal with my keyboard that I won’t use any more zeros for 3 more days cause I’m over the limit. See, here in the real world we have limits.

The gov’t has no limit. It makes the rules and breaks them when it wants and the rest of us still have to follow them.

$200k trillion is MORE than the value of everything on the planet. Though I’ve read about it numerous times I still do not have a clear picture of WHO that money is owed to. Stands to reason, whomever it is, they would be the wealthiest entity ever, if they collected it all at one time.

Talking about the gov’t debt is a circular (il)logic similar to the idea of the US gov’t itself. Think about it. “Of the people, by the people, for the people.” What the hell does that even mean? I, for one, take no responsibility for anything this criminal assed gov’t has ever done. I reject the notion that it does what it does, for me. I never asked it for anything.

As far as I have ever seen, this rotten assed gov’t is an entity in and of itself has zero to nothing to do with the average citizen. I can only speak for myself when I say that I have never known this gov’t to have ever done anything, anything at all, that was to MY benefit. Giving back some of what it stole from me is not a benefit. In my 71 years on this earth I have never received even one thing from this shitty gov’t that I didn’t pay dearly for. What I have received from it has been many lifetimes worth of grief on a scale that is unbelievable.

This lab stuff that DT brought up? Sure, I believe it happened. Why wouldn’t I? Why wouldn’t any sentient human believe it? The employees of the gov’t don’t care what you believe because they know that there is absolutely nothing you nor anyone else can do about it. NO accountability!

I also believe this lab stuff is fairly mild stuff compared to lots of other things this criminal gov’t is involved in. Ever wonder how much skin can be peeled from a living human before it succumbs to shock? The gov’t knows.

Frankly, my trodden path has revealed such that there is nothing about this rotten assed gov’t that I wouldn’t believe. Once, when I was young and naïve, I put my life on the line for this gov’t and almost lost it all – and I pay the price to this day (in 1 week it will have been 51 years (20APR75)). I will never do that again. For decades at least I have been on “the other side”, and likely will remain there.

Peace, out.
