Keep it Simple Stupid (KISS)

Keep it Simple Stupid (KISS)

There is a 24 hr 7 day a week news cycle on more stations than I can count. 1 billion hours of Net flix viewed last month, billions of tweets, 1 billion users of facebook. Billions of smart phones, more communication in one day than all of humanity had had in its life time. We are now at a point where we have so much information at our finger tips that it is not just difficult but actually impossible to now know what is a lie and not a lie. We have gotten distracted with looking at bits of information and reacting to the bit instead of seeing where the bit plays on the whole. For example: Bit “I want my welfare”, Whold “we are broke and have to borrow the money from China”. Bit “I want my military hardware”, Whole “we are broke and have to borrow the money from China”. We now have 10's of thousands of hours of discussion, argument, and fair and balanced reporting on the Money issues. What has the government done. Nothing but borrowed more money.

There are simple solutions to all the major issues in front of this country but we continue to get lost in the minutia. The strategy of minutia arguing is simple. Keep everybody confused and watching.

Simple ideas and solutions that lead to resolutions:
Money issues:

KISS: No borrowing money. Cut the size of Governments Spending. Cut the jobs, the hardware, the waste, the very size by what ever it takes to get back to a balanced and smaller government. Cut it by 10%, 20% what ever it takes. No more bailouts for anybody. No more cutting the rate of the size of growth. No more not deciding. No more needing a certain party to do the right thing. The fact that you are an American is all you need to be, to do the right thing.

We the Peoples Solution: Stop paying taxes till this gets fixed.

Social Problems:


We now have a culture that thinks that welfare, government support and tax support programs are an inalienable right. The are not.

KISS: Gut all the welfare programs. We should only have safety nets. The government has taken the motivation to participate in society away by government supported food /clothing/ shelter. Food, 50 million citizens on food stamps. Clothing, 100 million not including Social Security and Medicare receive some form of welfare from the federal government. We now have a class of citizens who provide nothing to our society. 18 million Cell phones bought by our government for the poor. 1 trillion in student debt that will never be paid back. They take, not give to society but live off it. The social experiment of the 60's (President Johnson's Great Society) has failed and socialism is a fail idea and a failed political and economic system world wide. Shelter, subsidized housing is another word for ghetto and everybody knows it. The ghetto provides for crime, drugs, violence and a life style that leaves us with a Detroit, Chicago, Washington DC and others. The housing crises was a direct result of home purchases and subsidized lending to those who could not afford it.
If I have food, (food stamps), shelter (HUD housing), monthly cash and a cell phone, a government subsidized education, pay no tax, why would I want to stop this. I am not motivated.

We the peoples solution: Stop paying taxes till they stop welfare


Jobs:

KISS: There are 18 million jobs currently taken by illegal immigrants. I am tired of hearing that Americans will not take these jobs. Why would they when they have enough food, clothing and shelter and cash income to get by. Stay poor and you also get free medical contrary to all the Obama care statistics. What a lie. So free medical, enough food, fee housing. Work for cash, no tax. There is no motivation to take a job that pays a small wage. The job would have to pay at least $20 per hour to even come close to welfare, unemployment and other subsidizes. Add the medical in and we are closer to $30 per hour. No wonder we have unemployed and no jobs. No motivation to work. Just survive on government subsidizes.

We the Peoples Solution: Stop Paying taxes till they go to work.

The size of Government:

KISS; Chop the size of government by what ever it takes. If the chop is big enough taxes would be cut, spending would be cut, the the economy would grow, motivation to work and become productive would return, values and morality would guide us in decision making not a set of ever-changing laws and the current utilitarian ethic (ME).

We the Peoples Solution: See the big cultural picture. History proves this assessment.
