There is no turning back.


By Robert Melaccio, sr(25,995) Robert Melaccio, sr



Yes get used to it Average American, in my opinion the plunder of America’s middle class to support the Global agenda has turned the corner and there is no turning back. The demise of the average American family and the destruction of the American dream, which was the cornerstone of this nations work ethic and subsequent prosperity has been eliminated. The ability to dream for a small piece of the pie has been eliminated and like termites and moths will do it has eaten away at the very fabric of the nation and that dream is fast if not already has been eliminated. Just think of all the ramifications to that one aspect?

The termites and moths in my opinion are the exploiters and greed mongers who have driven the car to the point of demolition. I have spoken to the topic many times over the last three years and each time another step has been achieved in lowering the standards of the American working class. Americans are down top their last straw, hope. Now hope has always been a major player in everyone's life. Certainly if we look to religion as one example and that of Christianity we see hope not only in the professions of Jesus Christ, but in His works. Therefore hope becomes belief and faith. Dare we have such in any man? Yes, hope for average Americans hope is all they have and in my opinion they blindly place their hope in the pipers who led them down the river. The same pipers who have the same exact agenda and as they speak the words blow in the breeze to sooth the worried masses.

Now here is an actual example. We know your frindly banker isn't much help for people in trouble so lets say one turns to a broker. Lets assume a person wants to refinace their home and use an FHA mortgage, which currently will finance up to 95% value. Sounds good right? By the way, our leaders are going to raise that to 110%, very shrewd. However, ask your broker this first. You cannot get that loan until you roll, GET THIS, all that unsecured debt into it. That is all of your past due, unsecured Credit card debts into that mortgage, thus placing that "unsecured debt" now onto you home which by the way secures that debt. In fact if that debt is so heavy you cannot get that loan, period. So what does that say about saving the American dream,families homes? Yes, in my opinion they kill two birds with one stone! Rhetorically and evidently needless to say saving your home evidently isn't that important, saving those unsecured lenders butt is?

In my opinion they are either stupid or very tidy as to how they have you over the barrel under the guise of helping you. Now your mortgage rate is higher, why, well I’m sorry you are not a responsible person, right Mr. McCain? Perhaps you are not so "well intentioned", by his standards? You are as perhaps a bill collector might say, a bad person and a higher risk and if you do not pay now they get the home.
 
The uninsured credit cards have been paid and everyone is a winner. Yes, praise the Lord and God Bless as they would say.
 
Now you can probably go Chapter 7 give it all back and these same people now that you have no more debt will give you a loan anyway. Hey, its about money and do not let them kid you, there is always someone to "help" you. It is after all just "good business". Yes you need to understand where these people are coming from and where their entire focus is. Yes eliminate the risk and pass it to the consumer. In any case they get the write off you get the problem.  Hey don't borrow and you have no problem. Thats correct but you very slighly left out that 31% interest didn't you. You left out unforseen circumstances didn't you? You left out emergencies didn't you? Yes and you left out what is most important and I will leave you to ponder what that is. See you in church and I really do not care what the church crowd thinks. A Church is just a building for many, no more no less. You shall be known by your works not where you show up or what you profess to be.
 
Adding to this is in my opinion is the lowering of the standards for Americans, regardless of what one may hear. This has been the objective of the powerful for years. It means cheaper labor costs. Of course many will ask why and those same have no idea about what I am alluding to. They never saw the handwriting on the wall, the signs and symbols nor did they pay attention to those in power who said it openly and perhaps they are one of the bunch that agree’s? Yes, it is all there for the taking if one were interested. Sadly not many are and that is the chief weapon of those who bring it about.

Have you ever asked why no one seems to directly address many of these problems? Perhaps because they won’t and in my opinion they do not care to. When they talk about jobs it is always in vague no substance general terms. Well the fact and problem really is how to bring back good, solid average American jobs? You must keep in mind when they gave away our industry, our technology and every type of job that had any value the also supplemented it with outsourced help and foreign labor. American "jobs" as they call them remain in the low end retail or service industry and even that will soon be a problem going to more and more illegal workers which they like to call immigrants. Yes, business will be forced to as they are now just to survive. Fire the high priced help and get cheaper help. Yes now you know why they have At Will employment. No problems. Yes and now you know why Unions are so bad. Of course the greedy in Unions helped their own demise.

Now here is the question one must answer. Many Americans in the higher salaried and income brackets are not doing that bad. Sure they are paying higher prices and investments are down. Yet, the big money makers and investors will certainly rebound, unless the foreign markets take a hit, because all their capital is invested offshore, or at lease a significant portion of it. That is why they are pumping our billions into the market. Did you really think it was for us?

America as a power is only for the sake of the blood necessary to quell rebellions and establish new democracies so Free and Open Markets can flourish. Hey a fact and if you think not go back to school and hear it for yourself. Free Markets and democracy are vitally linked.

Now as I was talking to a couple of older men this weekend we got on the subject of politics. I gave them my little thing about voting the incumbents out and they said very directly, they do not vote any longer. They do not care to because it is a charade. To them it matters not who gets in just look at their works and what they do. Hey they said that. It was sort of a confirmation that many average Americans think like that. What difference replacing and Easter Bunny with another Hollow Easter Bunny, you still come up empty.

I responded by saying not voting allows what is going to happen to continue. You have in effect given your proxy. They said, it will not matter anyway. It is all about money, period and we don’t count. Markets, laws, nations are all gone. It is open borders and Free Trade and if you have a job, at least a decent one, hope you can hang onto it. Of course they added there aren’t may good jobs any longer.

Now these two were making over $70,000 a year. One retired and one about to. No not rich by wealthy standards but not poor either. They basically said "to hell with them all, all phonies". I just try to live my life as best I can and make do as I can. Well ok for them when they are making $70,000 a year I said but what about the others who are not? Their reply, not my problem. Says it all my friends it is all about "ME".

So if we find my readers and others expressing the same then why even have any election? It seems a great majority of Americans are either fools or don’t give a damn? You take your pick of that opinion. Americans no longer trust any of them to be honest. They have no real selection or choices, one rich person from another and all with the same goals and objectives. The story as they say of the haves and the rest.

So, regardless of who gets in as president we will get everything we do not want and even more. The same no good types that they themselves talk about will get reelected and we average Americans, well what can one say. If it keeps going the way it is and there is nothing to say

Perhaps this is in the cards as far as an average American families future is concerned. So get used to it. Here is a list of potential possibilities or perhaps what has already arrived for some? 

1- Low paying no benefit jobs with not even a full 40 hours of work.

2- Lousy credit scores costing you way more all across the board in everything you "must have because it is government mandated" and that includes finding employment.

3- Usurious rates on credit and other purchases along with harassment will continue at an even higher pace.

4- Bankruptcy in the future for many.

5- A Foreclosed home some investor will get help buying, good bye American dream hello cardboard box.

6- Your children will go off to make new democracies.

7- Credeit unaavailable for many average and middle income Americans.

8- The good jobs will continue to go foreigners as will the low end work.

9- Education will still favor that same group.

10 Average Americans will sink even more into poverty.

11- Yes while always professing God, but which God?.
12- The end of the America we all once knew?

Now will there be an exception here and there, of course and they will get all the press as they say to continue to give hope. Yet the over whelming numbers of average people will find it harder and harder to gain the American Dream and slide deeper down the slide of poverty.

Hey pessimistic, out spoken, truth, lie, distortion not interested take your pick only an opinion. If you are not an average American you just cannot relate, period, end of story. If you are, you know all too well the possibilities.

And you know something, like those two who don’t vote, we have ourselves to thank.
