Anti-Palin Aerial Hunting Propaganda

If wildlife is in abundance, what's the matter with hunting it? I understand the video had hero shots of the wolf and strong language, but that is propaganda. Speaking as someone who teaches propaganda techniques, this video was mostly propaganda.

Hunting is hunting. So long as the species isn't endangered, hunting is sometimes required and population control can actually be good for the wildlife, because their resources are in more supply because of less demand.

I'm not a hunter myself, but I appreciate the deer hunters in my area for controlling the deer population so the deer don't eat up all their resources. Starving to death is more painful than being shot. What is so terrible about her supporting aerial hunting?

And what does it have to do with her candidacy? There are FAR more important things to worry about than hunting. I understand that hunting makes animal rights activists feel bad, but doesn't the right to hunt have a bit to do with freedom? Isn't that what this country is built on?

By permitting this type of hunting, Palin is preserving that very freedom on which the US was founded. That very freedom which so many activists want to take away. You offend somebody, some activist wants to make laws on what you can and cannot say (hate speech legislation), someone gets shot by a criminal, some activist want to take all the guns from law abiding citizens. The Constitution is NOT negotiable, yet a lot of people seem to think that it is.

I support Palin, because Palin supports our rights. Do I think she's mean? Yes. Do I think she's a little deluded because of her religion? Yes, but aren't all religious people? I do not LIKE her as a person, but as a candidate, she will almost certainly try to preserve our freedom, and that is what matters most.

I do not think it is the government's job to pass regulation after regulation, widdling away at our rights. I think it is the government's responsibility to collect taxes and build roads and schools. It is the government's job to speak with other countries and make treaties. I, personally, do not wish for the government to treat me like a well-cared for pet.

I am a person, and I can decide what is right and wrong for me, and I do not need the government taking self-sovereignty from me. The more we ask for regulations, the more regulations we'll get, until the US becomes nothing but a police state.

Is that what you want? If so, I look forward to combating you and your 'activist' friends who took my Constitutional rights. I look forward to see you standing side by side with tyranny, accepting their concessions and asking for less freedom. When all of our freedoms are gone, and revolution is inevitable, I look forward to seeing your betrayal through the scope of my rifle.

Exporting Factories

So, I was thinking about U.S. businesses making factories outside of the United States, like the ones in Asia and South America.

Do any of you know what this means for us, the American workers?

In short, it means that there are little to no jobs left for us.

It means that corporations are making all of the money and saving big on cheap labor, while the middle class (i.e. the majority of U.S. citizens) are stuck desperately hunting down jobs that don't exist.

It means the only job you can find is at Walmart or McDonald's, unless you went to college. If you went to college, you can probably get a job as a marketing specialist, a real estate agent, or an accountant. Basically, you can help sell things to people and help people buy things made in other countries!

I'm sure many of you have heard someone say "America is a consumer nation", but do you know what this means? It's much worse than it sounds.

A consumer nation is a country that does not produce anything for export.

Let's say that an American shoe company called ShoePlus (made up name) has a factory in Cambodia. They do this because the only need to pay the Cambodian workers 10 cents an hour, and they'd have to pay American workers minimum wage and benefits. So ShoePlus saves a BOATLOAD of money on employees.

So they sell these products in the United States. American people give their money to ShoePlus, and Shoeplus gives a percentage of that to their Cambodian employees.

Go through that process again in your head. Do you see any money coming into the United States there? Any? Now you see any money leaving the United States?

You see that ShoePlus is taking American money and sending it to Cambodia. It's not a lot, though, right? Well, it adds up, especially with just about every corporation in America sending their factories elsewhere, not to mention the debt our nation is in already.

Now, if we are only buying and not producing and selling, and employment is dwindling, what to you think is going to happen to our economy?

How can we buy anything if we can't get a job?

Does anyone sense something catastrophic headed this way?

Anyway, that's enough for today,
