Tell the 9th Circuit to Stick It!!

As you know by now the activist judges on the 9th circuit have upheld the suspension of Trump’s immigration ban.  While that may sound like a great move if you're watching Good Morning America, MSNBC, Meet the Press, or any of those other mainstream media wack job collaborations, they couldn’t be further off the deep end. So many today have become brainwashed into believing everything that is fed to them by these morons and they have no understanding of the Constitution or the rule of law.  The rule of law that Trump spoke about throughout his campaign and continues to speak about as President.

This failed understanding of the Constitution and lack of knowledge when it comes to civics can be attributed largely to the educational system in this country.  Kids today come out of school knowing more about the Kardashians than they do about who the first President of this country was or the system of government we all live under.  We even hear many millennials spout off at the mouth about how this country is a “democracy” when in reality we are a Constitutional republic and majority doesn’t always rule! If kids and even adults understood how our government is designed to function they would realize that there are three co-equal branches of government, the legislative, judicial, and executive.  Each of which is designed to be a check to the other creating a balance between the three.  

Many are arguing that the 9th circuit was merely checking the President’s power when it comes to his recent immigration order.  That could not possibly be further from the truth as the power over immigration lies solely in the hands of Congress and the President. Congress may make laws regarding immigration while the President, according to a 1952 immigration bill, has the power to determine which (non-citizens) we let into this country, where they originate from, and how many people we decide to let it. The President can even go as far as to restrict immigration based upon just about whatever he so chooses, he can even restrict immigration based upon religion (aaahhhh the horror).

The law passed in 1952 states,

Speaking in the Senate on March 2, 1953, McCarran said:[4]

I believe that this nation is the last hope of Western civilization and if this oasis of the world shall be overrun, perverted, contaminated or destroyed, then the last flickering light of humanity will be extinguished. I take no issue with those who would praise the contributions which have been made to our society by people of many races, of varied creeds and colors.

However, we have in the United States today hard-core, indigestible blocs which have not become integrated into the American way of life, but which, on the contrary are its deadly enemies. Today, as never before, untold millions are storming our gates for admission and those gates are cracking under the strain.

The solution of the problems of Europe and Asia will not come through a transplanting of those problems en masse to the United States. ... I do not intend to become prophetic, but if the enemies of this legislation succeed in riddling it to pieces, or in amending it beyond recognition, they will have contributed more to promote this nation's downfall than any other group since we achieved our independence as a nation.

There you have it! It doesn’t take a law degree to grasp the fact that our country has been facing issues with illegal immigration since its inception and we continue to face those same issues today.  The problem today is that the Democrats and all liberals seem to cherry pick which laws they want to enforce and or abide by and which laws they simply disregard.  This is why we are so lucky to have Trump in office.  Trump clearly believes in the rule of law and is willing to hold those who do not uphold the rule of law accountable.  The problem is we need to get the masses to understand that the rule of law still does exist and we all must be sure our leaders are upholding said rules whether they agree with them or not.

Cruzzin Past Trump in Iowa

Big news this Sunday morning as it looks like Trump is not as infallible as many think he is.  Thus far I have been looking at the GOP field and giving everyone an equal shot in my eyes to win the Republican nomination for the president.  Too many people are buying into what is being fed to them via the mainstream media and are getting caught up in the hoopla that same media has created as they hang on every word Trump says.  I'll be the first to say that when Trump appears to screw up, somehow it only strengthens his stance in the polls and that just adds to is already over inflated ego.

Just a few examples of Trumps debacles...



In this particular instance we see Donald Trump literally mock handicapped individuals as he speaks about the Muslims that were celebrating in Jersey City, NJ shortly after the 9/11 attacks.  While his claim was later confirmed as video had surfaced showing the individuals indeed were celebrating, the problem is how Trump went about explaining this incident.  Do we really want an individual like this, who possesses such lack of couth, as the leader of the free world and one who will represent us around the world.

Again we see Trump on his high horse and this time he is literally mocking and belittling a fellow candidate.  In this instance it is about respect, or lack thereof, from an individual who has his sights on the highest office in this country.  When I look for someone who I would back as president of the United States, I look for someone who commands respect; not someone who tosses around names and acts like a child when he doesn't get his way.  After all we are now seeing Trump threatening that he may actually run third party if the GOP doesn't start treating him fairly.  On what grounds can he speak about fair behavior when we see him mock handicapped people and belittle nearly every single individual vying for the GOP nomination to become president?

Along Comes Ted Cruz

While everyone was pandering over Trump and his recent statements about how he intends to keep Islamic terrorists from entering the United States, Texas Senator Ted Cruz was busy running a campaign rooted in fundamental principles on how he intends to implement his policies.

According to Brietbart,

Cruz has 31 percent support, followed by Donald Trump with 21 percent. Since October, Cruz has gained 21 points while Trump has gained just 2 percent. Neurosurgeon Ben Carson is in 3rd place with 13 percent, down 15 points since October. Florida

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) 79% is 4th with 10 percent support, essentially unchanged since the last poll.

Are people beginning to wake up to Trump and his antics?  This aforementioned pole is a fantastic indicator that people are fed up with Trump and his whining that if he isn’t treated fairly he’ll leave the party.  While that may strike fear into many traditional Republican voters, I feel that the core of the Republican party today stands on clear morals and values and they are able to see right through everything Trump says and understand there isn’t really any substance behind the rhetoric.

That substance that Trump lacks Cruz makes up for and a prime example of this is explained here,

There were two other campaign developments this week, however, that perhaps go even further to explain the strong support coalescing behind Cruz. On Thursday, Cruz gave a speech focused on foreign policy at the Heritage Foundation. Echoing Ronald Reagan and Jeanne Kirkpatrick, Cruz outlined a robust strategy to combat radical terrorism without miring the US in overseas conflicts.

This is what we need, in a candidate who can literally back up what he says with methods and policies depicting how he will carry out his plan. Ted Cruz understands the Constitution and the responsibility of holding the highest office in the land.  He doesn’t just speak on platitudes, he speaks about the issuing we face as a nation and provides detailed outlines of how he intends to address those issues .  The next time you see Trump on CNN, MSNBC, Good Morning America, Fox News, or anywhere else spouting off trying to keep himself in the limelight think to yourself, does this man really have a plan for this country or is he all talk?

The Case for Getting Government Out of Marriage

Given the recent Supreme Court decision regarding gay marriage we have seen a hug upheaval from those on all sides of the issue. We have seen the far left gay activists heading off of the deep end as they rub it in the faces of Christian conservatives.  We have also seen many on the far right become quite nervous as to how this ruling will affect religious institutions such as private schools, hospitals, and most importantly houses of worship. Many think that fear is far-fetched and unwarranted. 

Let’s take a look at Chief Justice John Roberts dissent regarding the gay marriage ruling as referenced in the NYT Blog, "Religious Liberty is the Rallying Cry after Gay Marriage"

But in his dissent, Chief Justice John Roberts predicted a clash ahead between religious freedom and same-sex marriage. He specifically noted the dilemma for religious colleges that provide married student housing, and adoption agencies that won't place children with gay couples.

"There is little doubt that these and similar questions will soon be before this court," Roberts wrote.

While we keep hearing that there is nothing to worry about, clearly the justices had considered the possible legal repercussions their ruling would have for many far removed from the two same sex individuals getting hitched. How will religious based institutions be treated if they refuse to hire those who do not fall in line with their beliefs?  Will the government actually use the force of law and begin prosecuting businesses for sticking to their deeply held religious beliefs?  This is precisely why the federal government should have never entered this arena in the first place, regardless of who is marrying who there is no right to marriage outlined in the Constitution.  As a result marriage law should reside at the state level and no higher.

As this debate becomes a major player in the upcoming presidential election we are beginning to see how the potential candidates are handling the issue. 

According to The Hill,

The libertarian-leaning presidential hopeful walks a fine line in a new column in Time magazine between his support of traditional marriage and his calls for limited government by arguing that the government shouldn’t be licensing marriage in the first place.

I’m not sure what all of the other candidates stances are so far on this issue but this is definitely a stance I can get behind. As with many other issues, Rand Paul takes the liberty stance here which is to keep government out of it.  We need someone in office who will fight to get government out of arenas like this and back to dealing with issues outlined in the Constitution.

Paul goes on to further clarify his libertarian stance,

“The government should not prevent people from making contracts but that does not mean that the government must confer a special imprimatur upon a new definition of marriage,” he writes.

Paul warns that the Supreme Court could “involve the police power of the state in churches, schools, church hospitals” if those religious institutions don’t comply with the court’s recent decision.

“I acknowledge the right to contract in all economic and personal spheres, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a danger that a government that involves itself in every nook and cranny of our lives won’t now enforce definitions that conflict with sincerely felt religious convictions of others,” he writes.

This is something the activists fail to realize when they go on their quests for things like gay marriage, gun control, racial equality, etc. They petition the federal government to make laws to appease whatever their cause is while ignorantly refusing to look at the possible implications of those laws further down the road.  They also fail to see how those laws may be interpreted or twisted when a new group of politicians are elected into office.  This is why the founders designed a Constitution greatly limiting the powers placed on a central authority, the federal government, and as a result placed more power within each individual state.  Unless we get back to this mindset we are headed down the road to destruction.

Appeals Court Hears Challenges on Obama's Unconstitutional Immigration Policy

I would love for one person to make a valid argument with regards to where Obama gets the authority to arbitrarily determine who is granted citizenship and who is not.  

According to Article 1, Section 8, Claus 4 of the United States Constitution, 

"The Congress shall have the power to establish a uniform rule of naturalization."

As one can clearly see, although the President can't seem to see this, the power of naturalization and in effect the subsequent dealings with immigration and naturalization as a whole lies in Congress, not in the hands of the President.  Bottom line is the actions by this president to take it upon himself to move forward with immigration policy without first consulting Congress is unconstitutional and an impeachable offense. 

 Don't be fooled by this President's excuse that he must act because Congress won't.  It doesn't matter whether or not Congress is acting or coming to a resolution on something the President decides is important.  He simply does not have the power to take over the powers of Congress.

Today we are seeing the 5th circuit court of appeals take up arguments over the validity of Obama's proposed immigration reform.  The mere fact that it has come to this is absolutely ridiculous! The government is wasting tax payer’s money debating whether or not Obama can deliberately act outside the confines of the Constitution. 

According to ABC News, 

A coalition of 26 states, led by Texas sued to block the plan. The hearing was on an appeal of a Texas judge's injunction.

The Justice Department argued that Texas has no legal standing in the matter. Texas' solicitor general countered that granting legal status to immigrants will be costly for Texas.

The judges did not rule and took the case under advisement.

It is quite clear that more than half of the states are extremely concerned with the possible effects of this proposed immigration reform.  If the immigration reform were to go through it would have a hug effect on the states as the federal government plans on putting the burden of taking care of the illegals solely on the states.  

The states will have to deal with providing schooling for the millions of new illegal alien students, the states will have to deal with health concerns brought here by individuals from third world countries, and the states will have to deal with issuing these illegal aliens credentials that should only be provided to United States citizens.

ABC News then goes on to explain,

Benjamin Mizer, the Justice Department's principal deputy assistant attorney general, called Texas' suit unprecedented and argued that immigration policy is a domain of the federal government.

The whole reason the Texas suit is "unprecedented" is because the actions of this President are also unprecedented.  Never before has a president taken it upon himself to rule on immigration policy.  And don't talk to me about Reagan, the immigration bill that he signed into law back in 1986 was drafted and passed by Congress.  Therefore the immigration reform was Constitutional. 

Yes immigration reform is a domain of the federal government as stated by Benjamin Mizer, it's just not a domain of the office of the President.

Maxine Waters Promotes Sharia Law in America

We constantly hear about sharia law and whether or not it should be allowed in the United States.  This is a topic that shouldn't even be up for debate in this country as we have a document that provides the outline for law and order in this country, the Constitution.  Within this document it is stated that government shall,

"Make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

As a result any attempt at implementing sharia law in the United States wouldn't simply be unlawful, it would be unconstitutional.  The problem here is that our own president no longer abides by the Constitution as he arbitrarily enforces laws, enforces only portions of laws that benefit his agenda, takes it upon himself to nationalize individuals who arrive in this country illegally, and the list goes on. As a result, how can you expect those the like of Maxine Waters to know what the Constitution is, let alone the Constitutional laws she is breaking by advocating the implementation of sharia law in America. 

In this video the pathetic Maxine Waters speaks about our Constitution and religious freedom. As stated before the Constitution gives us the freedom of religion and not the freedom from religion.  As a result Muslims, Christians, Jews, and anyone of faith has the right to practice their religion so long as it is not taking away the rights and freedoms of another individual.  This is where this morons stance on sharia law comes into play.  

According to DCClothesLine.com,

Islam means to change the very culture you live in and the laws you live under America. If you have any doubts, understand that a current imam at the Islamic Society of Orange County and former president of the Islamic Society of North America, Muzammil H. Siddiqi, issued this fatwa on Islamonline.net (the link has now dead, but did find it in theweb archives here).

“It is true that Islam stands for the sovereignty of Allah the Almighty and Allah’s rules are not limited to the acts of worship, they also include social, economic and political matters. By participating in a non-Islamic system, one cannot rule by that which Allah has commanded. But things do not change overnight. Changes come through patience, wisdom and hard work.

I believe that as Muslims, we should participate in the system to safeguard our interests and try to bring gradual change for the right cause, the cause of truth and justice. We must not forget that Allah’s rules have to be established in all lands, and all our efforts should lead to that direction.” 

If sharia law requires that everyone abide by it then how is that considered free?  I would love for the oh so intelligent, understanding, and culturally diverse, Maxine Waters explain to us just how that type of law is indeed Constitutional.  How does a law which basically implements a mandatory religion within this country work in accordance with the religious freedom we are guaranteed by our Constitution? 

DCClothesLine.com adds, 

"She then went on to quote the Southern Poverty Law Center, who claims that “hate groups” are at an all-time high. It’s funny that they don’t list themselves as a hate group. Since they failed to do so, I’ll just add them to my list of hate groups. But Waters went on to say the “radical right” terrorism was growing. As of yet, I haven’t seen them fly planes into buildings or behead their enemies."

This couldn't be more true with regards to the entire misguided notion of hate groups in this country.  Maxine complains about how people are racially profiled in this country and how it has to end.  I agree that people should not be profiled solely based upon their race, but if race helps to separate a possible perpetrator from other individuals, then why couldn't race be used in conjunction with a whole list of other qualifications as part of the reason to so much as question an individual.  I am by no means saying round up Americans of a specific race or religion and intern them like the liberal hero FDR did. What I am saying is that if a person of interest happens to be of a specific race or religion that shouldn't be disregarded when attempting to locate the suspect.

The bottom line is that if we follow down the road Maxine Waters is outlining we will inevitably see the destruction of the Constitution and the end of this country as we know it.  We must not let sharia law become common place in American society as doing so goes against everything the founding fathers stood for with regards to freedom of religion and freedom in general.  The fight against radical islam is coming here whether we like it or not and the sooner Americans wake up to it and quash it while we still can, the better off we'll all be.

CIA Blacksite Detention Facility Found in Chicago

We have seen Obama trample all over the Constitution as he has acted far outside the confines placed on his office.  While this may not directly affect the everyday American citizen, or at least affect us in ways that are immediately tangible, this new detention facility that was reported on in The Guardian raises eyebrows as to the secret practices of our government here at home. We have seen and heard about things like secret detention facilities throughout the middle east and have been made aware of unethical interrogation practices. Well it's time to wake up people because those practices have hit awfully close to home.

According to The Guardian,

The Chicago police department operates an off-the-books interrogation compound, rendering Americans unable to be found by family or attorneys while locked inside what lawyers say is the domestic equivalent of a CIA black site.

I don't often get into reports provided by the likes of Alex Jones as he often times jumps off the deep end when it comes to conspiracy theory, but this time he was actually on to something. His reports along with the report provided by The Guardian depict an interrogation compound the likes of what we see overseas.  

I can't help attribute this in part to what we see on TV in which shows like Law and Order and other similar shows glorify these types of activities.  If you look closely at Law and Order you can count numerous instances in which people Constitutional rights are violated and people just go along with it like nothing is wrong.  I understand it is just a show but this show is also watched by law enforcement and can be in part to blame for the activity we are seeing in Chicago.  

In addition to the TV aspect of this, we are seeing a lawless government get away with nearly anything they want.  As a result this is filtering down into local police departments as some are beginning to feel that they can act as the government does and the Constitution is no longer a restraint on their actions but a mere guide book that they can choose to or choose not to follow. 

I am by no means saying that cops are bad.  It's usually not the cops that are at fault when it comes to incidents like this, it's the upper echelon of law enforcement that buys into the bullshit being fed to them by high ranking officials.  The average American citizen must understand that it is the elected officials that are to blame for what is going on in police forces around the country as the actual police officer is simply following orders so he can support his family and make it to retirement for his pension.  

If we do not wake up soon we will see more and more of these types of facilities cropping up around the country.  And these facilities will be full of freedom loving people just like you and me who have the balls to speak out about what is really going on.  As the government begins to censor the media and the Internet we will most likely be whisked away never to be heard from again!

8th Grade Social Studies Teacher Assigns Pro Illegal-Immigration Homework Assignment

It's safe to say the federal education system in this country is becoming a resource for the left to indoctrinate our youth in their progressive ideologies. Long gone are the days of teaching children to think for themselves and fostering an environment in which children are given the tools to develop independent thought processes. Kids today are being fed a steady stream of liberal progressive propaganda that is literally ruining the minds that will shape tomorrow and the future of this country.

A prime example of just how the federal educational system is ruining young minds was evident in an 8th grade social studies assignment recently given to students at Shattuck Middle School in Wisconsin. This particular assignment dealt with immigration policy and how each part is "supposedly handling" the situation.

According to IJReview.com,

The homework, assigned by 8th grade Social Studies teacher Grace Davis, featured a political cartoon with a clearly labeled Democrat laying bricks to convey the building of a “pathway to citizenship,” while the Republican-labeled character is removing the bricks, effectively dismantling any immigration process. The cartoon is originally from the Chattanooga Times Free Press, not the teacher’s own creation.

The assignment then directs the children to fill out a series of questions about immigration policy, using the cartoon as a reference. The homework assignment asks:

1. Who are the men in the picture (What is their job? Look at what they are doing for a hint)
2. What are they building?
3. What do the symbols on their shirts represent?
4. What is action being done by each man?
5. What might this mean to us about immigration and citizenship?

Make what you want of this assignment but it is plain to see that it is intended to mold the young minds in such a way that the Democrats are "building the pathway to citizenship" while Republicans are tearing it down.  This is the kind of muck that is being taught to our children?  This is the muck that our tax dollars are paying for?

Rather than teaching children that one party is doing one thing and the other party doing something different, why aren't we teaching children the Constitution and making them aware of their rights. Teach kids how this country was founded. Teach them what true immigration was and how immigrants made their way here for a better life and the processes they had to endure to make it here.

Paid Sick Leave Mandate Results in Wage Cuts

Yet again Obama is making promises that will inevitably have a negative effect on the working class of American citizens...

Do you think for one second that simply mandating businesses provide paid sick leave will not have some sort of negative repercussion?

According to James Sherk at the Dailysignal.com,

"Businesses care about the total compensation they pay workers. They care much less about how that compensation splits between wages and benefits. Economists have repeatedly found that when the government requires businesses to offer a benefit, they do so – and take the cost out of workers’ pay."

Just like the healthcare mandate drove up healthcare costs when we were told it would lower them, this paid sick leave mandate will also drove down wages as businesses will look to cut worker pay to make up for the paid sick time they are being forced to provide.

It's time people wake up and realize that there should be limitations to government. Government has far out stepped the boundaries placed upon it by the Constitution and people are too damn naive to realize the rug is being pulled out right from under their feet. The sheeple some believe the crap that falls out of the mouth of this president each time he issues a decree that is supposed to help "the people" yet it will wind up negatively affecting those it was designed to help!

I am all for paid sick leave, I want nothing less than to be working beside a sick coworker... But leave it up to the business owner to decode how he or she wants to run their own business.

Let the market determine whether or not the business survives. Is the business owner is so terrible in how they treat their employees no one will want to work for that person and their business will cease to exist.

The bottom line is it is not the governments responsibility to step on the toes of private businesses and dictate to them how they will run their operation.

Mr Obama Amnesty Does Not Compare to Christmas

The story of Christmas that we Christians have celebrated for thousands of years has now become a political football as this pathetic president has compared the Christmas season to executive amnesty!

According to Obama, 

“If we’re serious about the Christmas season, now is the time to reflect on those who are strangers in our midst and remember what it was like to be a stranger,” Obama said during an immigration town hall in Nashville.

Being serious about Christmas has nothing to do with accepting those who are in our midst by breaking our laws and coming here illegally! It's sad and pathetic that our president would stoop as low as to take a holiday like Christmas which happens to be one of the most important Christian holidays and use it to promote one of his own illegal, unconstitutional actions! 

Obama then went on to explain, 

“As I said the day that I announced these executive actions that we were once strangers too, and part of what my faith teaches me is to look upon the stranger as part of myself,” he said. “And during this Christmas season that’s a good place to start.

This quote by our glorious leader really takes the cake as he has the nerve to claim that he is Christian when we all know of that he is a closet Muslim as he constantly caters to the Muslim culture by NEVER condemning any of the heinous acts carried out by Muslims on the Christians and Jews around the world! 

One can always look at themselves as a so called "stranger".  That is still no excuse to break a countries laws and then petition that country to accept the fact that the laws have been broken. Breaking laws requires consequences and failing to ensure the consequences are instilled in the law breaker sets a bad precedent. 

Additionally,  when a president takes it upon himself to arbitrarily abide by and enforce laws it again sets a bad precedent that will inevitably backfire on not only his own party when a Republican takes office but on the country as a whole as the president is supposed to be the leader setting the example for the rest of the nation!

Police Enforce Ridiculous Laws Passed by Politicians

We have seen outrage and disgust over the most recent grand jury decision exonerating officer Daniel Pantaleo from any wrong doing in the choke hold death of Eric Garner. This was indeed a horrific incident as it is clear the cop appears to have crossed the line in choking Garner as he did. While this may be the case there is one major aspect of this situation that has gone largely undisclosed, the reason he was approached by the cops in the first place. 

(And no it wasn't because he was "black") 

With an ever growing number of ridiculous laws on the books police officers are now forced to handle everything from murder to ticketing a guy smoking to close to a building or a guy selling loose cigarettes on the street corner.

What took place on Staten Island is a direct result of ridiculous laws that the likes of the former mayor nanny Bloomberg  and current communist mayor DeBlasio are putting into affect. These individuals and those like them in the collegiate and political "elite" sit around all day and devise ways in which they can control the public.

First it was 20 ounce sodas, then it was salt, followed by sugar, followed by an ever growing cigarette tax and restrictions on where you can smoke. Laws in NYC have become so ridiculous that one can barely find a place to smoke while in the middle of an open air park.

You look at nearly all of the big cities throughout this country that are dealing with issues of race and perceived or real police brutality against the citizenry and you find a Democrat mayor. Detroit is all but lost at this point as a result of liberal Democrat policies run amok, Chicago run by the infamous Rham Emanuel is know as Chi-Raq, Los Angeles run by a Democrat, the St Louis area where the Ferguson incident took place run predominately by Democrats, and last but not least NYC which has been run by some of the most liberal progressive elitist nuts for nearly a decade.

People are simply getting what they vote for.  People want a progressive utopian style government and that's what they're getting. They all think government knows what is best for them. They want to rely on government to enact laws to control nearly every aspect of every persons life from what they drive to what they eat to how much water is in the toilet bowl when they take a crap and this is what your left with, an ever growing police state. How else is the government supposed to continue to enforce all of these ridiculous laws on the books today unless they develop a humongous police force.

It's time we get back to the Constitutional principles of limited government and rid local, state, and federal government of the ever growing number of ridiculous laws. Instill in people the importance of self reliance and the ability to take care of oneself rather than constantly relying on the government to hold their hand through each and every step in life. Inspire the individual to take responsibility for his or her actions! If we can do this we can surely avoid another incident like we recently witnessed with Eric Garner and we can avoid incident like what took place in Ferguson, MO. All it takes is a little limited government, self reliance, and responsible behavior!

Government Programs, The Downfall of this Country

Over the past fifty or so years many in this country and succumb to the notion that the government is the deciding factor with regards to who fails and who succeeds in this country.  Many, including Obama, consider FDR to be one of the greatest presidents of all time.  Little do many realize just how much he hurt this country.  We constantly hear about how all of the government programs saved the country, yet many do not realize that the government cannot simply make something out of nothing and for every program there had to be funding which inherently comes from the tax payer. 

According to the Cato Institute, the New Deal "didn't increase the number of jobs in the economy, as the money spent on the New Deal projects came from the tax payers who consequently had less money to spend on food, coats, cars, books and other things that would of stimulated the economy."

Fast forward some sixty years and we find ourselves in an very similar situation on a much larger scale.  Government has expanded exponentially over those years to become a behemoth that many feel has passed the point of no return.  We now face the daunting task of taking down Obamacare which if passes, will all but signify the end of conservatisism in the government.  Obamacare was passed as a tax, yet it is simply the government compelling you to buy a service and punish you for inaction.  This sets a scary precedent, if the government can punish you for inaction in regards to healthcare, whose to say they can't levy a punishment for not partaking in any government program or service they decide to implement.

We must also take into consideration the cost factor.  As with the New Deal, Obamacare will increase the tax burden to those who actually pay taxes. With Obamacare individuals will be required to purchase healthcare or face a penalty.  What many fail to realize is that those who cannot afford to pay for Obamacare will simply receive a subsidy provided by the government to purchase their healthcare at the cost of the tax payer. This phenomena is known as cost shifting which will hurt rather than help as the costs of those who are receiving the government subsidy to purchase healthcare will simply be shifted to those who do pay. 

It's really quite simple, both the New Deal, Obamacare and just about any other government program is funded by the tax payer.  Government cannot simply issue a decree and magically programs are implemented and services are provided.  This government today is a government not by the people and for the people, but a government that provides freebies to the people.  As a result we have a receiving class in this country that pays nothing to the system yet takes advantage of every program available.  This simply cannot continue as we will eventually reach a point where the receivers will outnumber the contributors.
