Release the Hounds!

Washington has an addiction problem. Not unlike a crack head needing a fix they want us to believe that if we throw more gas on the fire it's going to go out! Just give us 800 billion more and we'll stop the fraud and abuse in the medicare/medicaid system. It's time for an intervention. Make them go cold turkey America! Giving a drug addict more drugs doesn't help his addiction, an addict will also do everything in their power to convince you they need it. Sounds like a few politicians we know huh?

They's love to have you believe the cure to fraud and abuse is more government. When in fact it's the very nursery for fraud and abuse! Yielding power to unqualified leaders is the root cause of abuse. Ponder this, If your morally bankrupt, how do you insist that the decisions your going to make will be ethical? Those who oversee are never as learned as those who do. Believe me it pays much better to be a financial guru than to be head of the government oversight committee. So why would you be the regulator if you had the knowledge to be the financial guru? It's not the retirement program! I submit it's the lack of knowledge that keeps them in the government sector. Example: Bernie Madoff overseen by Tim Geithner. Had the market not corrected Madoff would still be running that scam, unbeknownst to Geithner, and he's currently in charge of the Treasury. Those who can, do...Those who can't supervise.

So when Washington calls for more Government (oversight), don't be an en-abler. Just say no! The fox has been watching the hen house for far too long. Limit government and limit abuse. It's bad enough we have to pay these people to commit treason and not uphold the Constitution, let's not let them usurp their authority and line their pockets and those special interest groups that support them.

God Bless
