Ronald Reagan should be added to Mount Rushmore. Here is a great comparison of Reagan then and the Democrats today.

OPEN LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
November 28, 2011
President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, D.C. 20500
Dear Mr. President,
It is with a great sense of disappointment that I write this. Like many others, I hoped that your election would bring a salutary change of direction to the country, despite what more than a few feared was an overly aggressive social agenda. And I cannot credibly blame you for the economic mess that you inherited, even if the policy response on your watch has been profligate and largely ineffectual. (You did not, after all, invent TARP.) I understand that when surrounded by cries of “the end of the world as we know it is nigh”, even the strongest of minds may have a tendency to shoot first and aim later in a well-intended effort to stave off the predicted apocalypse.
But what I can justifiably hold you accountable for is your and your minions’ role in setting the tenor of the rancorous debate now roiling us that smacks of what so many have characterized as “class warfare”. Whether this reflects your principled belief that the eternal divide between the haves and have-nots is at the root of all the evils that afflict our society or just a cynical, populist appeal to his base by a president struggling in the polls is of little importance. What does matter is that the divisive, polarizing tone of your rhetoric is cleaving a widening gulf, at this point as much visceral as philosophical, between the downtrodden and those best positioned to help them. It is a gulf that is at once counterproductive and freighted with dangerous historical precedents. And it is an approach to governing that owes more to desperate demagoguery than your Administration should feel comfortable with.

Hitler and a Moral Dilemma
Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao.
Perhaps the five most controversial figures in the industrial era. All extremely bad guys, all communist/progressive/socialists. All in some way perpetrators of cleansing, eugenics, and holocaust. Why they are still exerting influence over our daily politic I can’t imagine. Why are we still embracing these underlying Marxist philosophies is beyond all logic, as well as any portion of my comprehension.
Who is Hitler? Who is the guy in the mustache? Was Adolf Hitler good or evil? Was he responsible for killing 11 million in the Holocaust besides the casualties of war? Only 6 million were Jews, the other 5 million were the lame, sick, mentally or physically challenged, and of course gypsies and negros.Undesirables one and all for the new master race.
The Storm Troopers lined up box car loads of Jews in front of a huge pit in eastern Poland and mowed them down by machine-gun fire. Not all were dead. They command you to operate a bulldozer and fill in the pit. What would you do? Would you bury the survivors alive, or would you take the bullet?
Your answer might surprise you.

Peter Schiff weighs in on taxes & regulations
Peter Schiff appeared on Huckabee and shares his experiences with needlessly complicated government regulations. He explained how he was fined for hiring too many people, and why he needed to setup an off shore subsidiary instead of expanding his US presence.
Schiff is CEO of Euro Pacific Capital, a best-selling author, and former candidate for Senate in CT. He has also testified before Congress on numerous occasions about economic and fiscal issues.
Electronic Benefit Transfer cards- The EBT
There has been a recent trend to celebrate the monthly EBT card, with WIC, food stamps and other welfare benefits preloaded, all in one place. Life is a gravy train with an EBT card!
“Use yo EBT, it’s free!”
Here are a few examples from YouTube.

Here is the first, it’s a rap of the day.
