Fiscal discipline ended in the Federal Government with the establishment of the Federal Reserve system and the income tax.  The first necessary step in restoring fiscal discipline is to shut down the Federal Reserve System, return to the issuance of a fully gold backed Dollar and repeal the income tax.  In short, the return to the Gold Standard and clearly limited taxation.  This will in turn will halt the inflation of prices for goods and services paid by the both the private sector and all levels of government.  Through this the inevitable increases in the Federal budget can be brought to a halt.  In addition to the practical issues that I just addressed there is a moral issue.  A promise was made to young men and women to put their lives at mortal risk during the healthiest and most productive years of those lives.  We as a nation have an unbreakable obligation to keep that promise.

There is simply no excuse to violate this promise made in our name.

Now one may ask, if the solution to the problems of inflation and the budget deficit is so simple why won't it be implemented?  Because the Federal Reserve System and the income tax were established to facilitate the transfer of wealth from the rightful owners to the politically favored.  The program of the so-called Progressive Era is essentially a sophisticated system of subjugation and plunder, the barbarian mode of life.   The legalized process of plunder is used to enrich the political class and their close supporters and to buy the votes needed to empower them.  They need us to be under their control.  If we as a people are to restore command over our own lives then we must begin by fully separating ourselves from the “bipartisan” ruling class.

Everything has a cost.  Nothing is free.  There is no free lunch.  The cost of a lunch (or any other thing) is shifted to the taxpayer by the force of The State. 

Idiots exist.  I have to constantly deal with idiots.
