Ogre’s Politics and Views

In Canada, it’s quite clear: the government. Once again I will attempt to explain to you, good reader, one item: the “Department of Child Welfare” (or whatever it’s called in your state) is the most evil and most destructive force in the world today. They are terrorists of the worst kind: supported and sponsored by large amounts of government force.

In this case, which I’m sure you’ve heard of by now, the children were removed from the home because the government was “worried the parents’ conduct and associations might harm the emotional well-being of the children and put them at risk.” In other words, quite literally, the state has decided that they own the children and if the state doesn’t like who you talk to, the state will take your children.

Know what’s even more risky than having a symbol drawn on your arm? Putting your kids in public schools. Can we get “social services” to take children away from those parents, too? Now I do realize that this happened in Canada, where they don’t have an attempt at having actual rights, but our Constitution has been ignored so long, I’m not sure the right of Assembly still exists, either.

Once again, the lesson is clear. This is yet another example that proves to me that if the department of social services/child welfare EVER shows up at your door and you have children, there WILL be one of two results, no matter if you have done anything wrong or not. Either you can run, flee, and hide from the government or you will lose your family. There is no possible other outcome.

I’m writing this post before the markets open on Monday morning, so who knows what effect the market will have on the information here. But what I’m writing about is the “corporations” of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. For those who don’t know anything about these entities, it’s pretty complex. But to make things simpler, they’re corporations that are government-sponsored. In other words, it’s a corporation, but it’s not one that a few people got together and formed with investment money — it’s a corporation that was formed by the government and has government backing.

This corporation also happens to be in business. It’s business is to give mortgages to people who aren’t trustworthy enough to get mortgages. It exists to take serious risks on people borrowing money to get houses — risks so high that individuals and banks run by non-government people don’t want to take them. And these companies have been taking these risks for a long time. They’ve taken so many risks that this corporation now has around $5 trillion worth of outstanding loans.

Most of the other companies that had been formed to take on high-risk loans, such as American Home Mortgage and Countrywide have already gone bankrupt. The only high-risk lender left is Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. And on Friday, their stock prices dropped to nearly worthless. I guess it’s good that it happened on Friday, as that gives the markets the weekend to wonder and figure out what happens on Monday.

You see, if these companies go bankrupt, there’s trouble. $5 trillion is a lot of money. Investors include lots of foreign countries, too. And if the company goes bankrupt, all that investment is gone. At the same time, the implicit indication has always been there that the US government is backing that company. In other words, if the company is set to go bankrupt, the US government has always agreed to back up that money — which means that if the government does back them up, that’s $5 trillion added to the US debt overnight. And no, the government cannot afford to add $5 trillion in one day (it’s about $9.5 trillion now). After all, they just spent about $6 billion covering Indy bank’s losses.

So what’s a country to do?

So I bet you didn’t read the big news in the North Carolina media this weekend. But I guess that’s because the media is more interesting is getting you angry at Republicans so the media can win the elections and keep advancing socialism. Meanwhile, the North Carolina Senate passed a law that creates tens of thousands of new criminals. In addition, it makes tens of thousands of people who are absolutely no danger to anyone unable to purchase firearms. Why? Because government simply does not like people to be armed and will not put up with the damn citizens having guns. No, really, that’s why.

The new law makes it illegal for anyone who has ever been referred by a judge to a psychologist ineligible to own a gun. You can be sure that government employees (policemen) will be exempt from this (and lots of other) law. And to get the law passed, they did add a section that claims that if you are barred from buying a gun, you can beg and plead government for permission once again. And of course, it will be up to the black-robed ones to give you permission.

So now, in North Carolina, if you go to a judge because you got a speeding ticket and the judge decides you need “anger counseling,” you’re barred for life from buying a gun in the United States. Seriously, that’s what the law says. I guess the black market in guns will just have to continue to expand.
