Crap and tax, examined

July 2nd, 2009

Somebody’s finally reading the abomination, and the result…well, given what Obama and the Democrat Socialists are, it shouldn’t really surprise anybody either:

And how will this bill affect you? It has regulations on every single aspect of your daily life. There are light bulb restrictions (no more than 60 watts in your candelabra); in fact there’s a whole section that deals with lamps. If you decide to build a new home, it must meet new and specific energy requirements. If you decide to sell your existing home, a federal inspector must inspect your home, determine it’s energy rating, and if your home is found to be unacceptable then you must retrofit and make changes before you will be able to sell.

There’s an entire section on planting trees including guidelines on “scientific based measurements outlining the species and minimum distance required between trees planted…in addition to the minimum required distance to be maintained between such trees and building foundations, air conditioning units, driveways and walkways…”. Do we really need the federal government telling us where we can plant trees?

No, we do not. But apparently, way too many of us want it to, and believe it has the right. And that’s the real problem here: statist megalomaniacs have always been with us, and always will be, continually looking for a way to get a foot in the door. But they’d never get anywhere if there weren’t enough of us willing to fling it wide open to allow them to rig an election. Obama and the rest of his socialist gang should never have been able to get within sniffing distance of stealing the presidency and taking over the government — and he wouldn’t have if America was still America, and we hadn’t already been incrementally dragged so far left by both Democrats and RINOs. If the villainous mountebank had tried it a hundred years ago, he’d have been ridden out of DC on a rail — as he should be now.
