Thread: Obama is`patriotic`to Washington`s political plum job empire

If you think Obama is patriotic to America and the constitutionally limited system of government our federal Constitution mandates, and he does not have a personal and selfish interest in conning the America people into voting for him, I suggest you listen to his words very closely. The irrefutable fact is, Obama’s gimmick is bribing Mary and Joe Sixpack with their own tax dollars, and his prize would be, if elected, an allowance to justify an outrageous expansion of the federal government, with the creation of countless new political plum jobs which will be necessary to redistribute Mary and Joe Sixpack‘s paycheck which Obama will need to make good on the bribery he has engaged in.


But let’s be fair and point out there is nothing new with Obama`s game plan. As a matter of fact, why do you think there was such fighting between Hillary and Obama? The answer is, those who win the presidency get to be in charge of who will be hired and fired from countless political plum jobs created by the Washington Establishment, most of which are in violation of the limited powers granted to Congress by our Constitution!


A summary of the limited powers granted to Congress by our Constitution is articulated in the following way by James Madison in FEDERALIST NO. 45:

"The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation and foreign commerce. ... The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives and liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement and prosperity of the State."

As stated above, the intended powers of the federal government are to operate primarily on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation and foreign commerce. With that in mind, here is a current A-Z Index of U.S. Government Departments and Agencies, click on any particular listing to find the countless number of political plum jobs created in that department, many of which have six figure salaries and unbelievable benefits, all of which are financed by taxing Mary and Joe Sixpack`s paychecks!


So, let us examine just one federal agency which is not authorized by our federal Constitution, the Department of Education. The federal Department of Education has approximately 5000 federal political plum job employees with excessive salaries, top of the shelf medical plans, and an outrageous pension program, all of which Mary and Joe Sixpack living in Louisiana can only dream of having but will continue to be gouged by federal taxation to finance if Obama is elected. And, the sad truth is, public education just happens to be a state constitutionally authorized function, not a federally authorized function, and yet, the people of Louisiana would be taxed under Obama, if elected, in addition to being taxed by their state government to fund a state constitutionally authorized function. In the process 5000 employees at the federal department of education will stay happy campers under Obama’s presidency, while Mary and Joe will continue to be nothing more than tax slaves living on a federal plantation created to finance the Washington Establishment and the economic needs of its millions of federal political plum job holders.


It is amazing to learn the Federal Department of Education now has a annual budget of about $ 67 BILLION which was the entire federal budget in 1955 ___ a time period in America when Joe Sixpack’s paycheck was barely taxed by the federal government, he was able to meet his own family’s economic needs, and Mary, his wife, was able to stay home to take care of their children.


But let’s get back to our 5000 political plum job holders at the federal Department of Education who are rewarded quite well by the Washington Establishment for doubling as its volunteer foot soldiers during election time.


WASHINGTON’S POLITICAL PLUM JOB OVERVIEW

Are you considering a government job? The federal government employs more than 2,700,000 workers and hires hundreds of thousands each year to replace civil service workers that transfer to other federal government jobs, retire, or leave for other reasons. Average annual salary for full-time federal government jobs exceeds $67,000. The U.S. Government is the largest employer in the United States, hiring about 2.0 percent of the nation's work force. Federal government jobs can be found in every state and large metropolitan area, including overseas in over 200 countries. The average annual federal workers compensation, pay plus benefits, is $106,871 compared to just $53,288 for the private sector according to the United States Bureau of Economic Analysis.

Now wait a second, Mary and Joe Sixpack’s average annual wage amounts to only $45-55 K. Why are Mary and Joe earning less than those they employee?


In addition, here are other federal employee ``benefits`` which Mary and Joe will be gouged to finance:


Life insurance plan___ Mary and Joe Sixpack get to pay 1/3 of a government workers federal life insurance plan.


Federal Employees Dental & Vision Program is a full coverage plan and federal employees get to use pre-tax dollars to pay for their vision and dental premiums while Mary and Joe are forced to use after taxed dollars to fund their Dental & Vision plan.


Under the federal employee retirement system, there is a tax-deferred savings plan known as the ``Thrift Savings Plan``. Under this plan, federal workers may contribute up to 10% of their salaries to the plan, with Mary and Joe Sixpack being taxed to match up to 5% of a federal employee`s contribution.


Also, under the Civilian Service Retirement System a federal employee contributes 7% of their paycheck to retirement while Mary and Joe Sixpack are forced to match that 7 % out of their paychecks.


And, with reference to health insurance, which is in addition to the above mentioned dental and vision plan, see Federal Employees to See Moderate Rise in Health Insurance Premiums

Health insurance premiums for federal employees and retirees will increase by an average of 2.1 percent next year, the Office of Personnel Management announced this afternoon.


Cut------


The federal program will offer 283 plans next year and will provide insurance coverage to about 8 million Americans: civil service and postal workers, retirees, and family members. The government picks up about 70 percent of premium costs in its role as employer.

What the writer meant to say is, Mary and Joe Sixpack, who can barely meet their own health care needs, get to pick up about 70 percent of the premium costs to provide health care to the Washington Establishment’s political plum job holders and their families.


If elected, Obama will get to fire and hire countless political plum job holders and his hand picked loyalist replacements will then administer Obama’s federal plantation, while Mary and Joe Sixpack will remain the Washington Establishment’s tax slaves.


Bottom line is, judging from Obama’s very own words and his promise to enlarge the federal government, has established that his patriotism will not be focused in being obedient to our constitutionally limited system of government and federalism [our Constitution‘s plan], but rather, his patriotism and loyalty will be with the Washington Establishment, and its political plum job empire.


Indeed, the servant has become the master over those who have created a servant, and the new servant pays tribute by taxation to a gangster government which ignores our most basic law…our constitutions, state and federal.

I believe the real puppets are our uninformed voters who have blindly attached themselves to a political party which in turn manipulates them in such a manner as to keep the Washington Establishment and it political plum job empire in power Obama’s run for the presidency provides a textbook case of how the Washington Establishment operates.

The following article illustrates where Obama’s organized support comes from and why there is such support!

NEA President to recommend Obama


Now why would the president of the NEA’s 3.2 million member organization support Obama when the federal government has no authority to tax for, finance, or meddle in the public school systems established under state constitutions? Because Obama will continue the taxing of hard working families living in Harlem to finance the public school system of California. In addition, he will also give his approving nod to tax hard working families living in Harlem to fund the 5000 political plum job holders at the federal Department of Education, some of whom have been quite busy plundering its budget to finance personal economic needs. See The Department Of Embezzlement


But the problem with Obama’s plan using federal taxation to reward the 3.2 million members of the NEA is, he will be misappropriating federal revenue for a function not authorized by our federal Constitution.


Let us look at the irrefutable facts.


The People of Maryland delegated the power for a state funded and regulated educational system to their state elected officials, and not to the Congress of the United States sitting in Washington --- the wording being as follows:


[quote] “The General Assembly, at its First Session after the adoption of this Constitution, shall by Law establish throughout the State a thorough and efficient System of Free Public Schools; and shall provide by taxation, or otherwise, for their maintenance.â€
