Bailout Beginning Not End of Battle Against State

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 19:22:39 -0400

After a brief, but thrilling, defeat of the bailout bill in the House, the battle was lost. But, the bailout is not the end. The battle against the state has just begun.

For one brief moment the American people made their voices heard on the bailout, forcing the House of Representatives to blink. Soon enough, the Senate - unconstitutionally - took up the bailout bill, loaded it with goodies and returned it to the House, which approved it with no time to adequately review it or allow public comment. While the final passage of the bailout is discouraging to supporters of the free market and constitutional government, it is just the beginning of the battle against the state.

So, now what can we do to fight Fedzilla? Join the Campaign for Liberty as a precinct leader. The membership will cost $35.00 per year but you will receive the following benefits:

I have joined the Campaign for Liberty as a Precinct Leader and am impressed so far. They have very good training materials on grassroots politics. They have responded to questions within 24 hours as promised. I'm not going to give away all that the Precinct Leadership program has to offer, but it will definitely be worth your time to get involved and make a difference starting from the ground up.

Join Downsize DC. In my opinion, Downsize DC has a clear vision of the challenges posed by our current political system. Their philosophy and strategy don't depend on any particular political party being in power. They are action oriented. Downsize DC not only reacts to whatever the current crisis is, but advocates to change how the political game is played by advocating new laws such as: Read the Bills Act, One Subject at a Time Act, Write the Laws Act, Enumerated Powers Act, the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2007 and many other campaigns. Their Educate the Powerful system allows you to educate your elected representative and make your voice heard at the same time. I think that while their methods differ, membership in both the Campaign for Liberty and Downsize DC is essential to bring about change.

Learn about the issues before Congress and then use social networking to spread the word. One site I use is OpenCongress. They have an excellent set of tools ranging from a Facebook Application to a "Congress I'm Watching" Widget where you can post what bills you are watching and your opinion on them on your blog, web site, social networking site, etc. Check out the full range of tools and join OpenCongress today.

Don't forget how your Representative or Senate voted on the bailout. Even though the sin of voting for the bailout was bad enough, you might reserve some special punishment for those who switched their votes in the House. Whether you vote your Representative or Senator out of office, withhold financial support, write or call their office, write a letter to the editor, tell your friends, send a letter to their office, or run for office to unseat them - be sure to do something so your elected officials know you won't take it anymore. Senators can be recalled in the following 18 states:

*Alaska

*Arizona

*California

*Colorado

*Georgia

*Idaho

*Kansas

*Louisiana

*Michigan

*Minnesota

*Montana

*Nevada

*New Jersey

*North Dakota

*Oregon

*Rhode Island

*Washington

*Wisconsin

Don't give up. Keep watching the actions of your elected representatives. It isn't easy keeping track of what Congress and the Executive are doing, but it is necessary. Sometimes we will win and sometimes we will lose. Sometimes we may win one battle only to discover that, under cover of darkness, they have passed a bad piece of legislation. No matter what, we have to continue the fight. Remember, we are fighting for the future of our country, for freedom, for liberty, for the Constitution, for ourselves and future generations. The bailout is just the beginning of a longer struggle against an out of control state. We must never let people forget about this unconstitutional decision by Congress. We must point out every failure of this bailout. We must educate others about sound economic theory so that misinformation, misunderstanding, half-truths and lies can be countered with truth. This isn't over. We won't forget. We won't give up. We may have lost this battle, but we will win the war against the state.

Stop our Army from Being Used on U.S. Soil

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 16:08:56 -0400

For years our laws have protected us from our military being used on U.S. soil. While this might not be of concern to some. However recent moves by the government could lead us down the slippery slope to the military being used against our own people here at home.

Bush Illegally Turns Army Inwards – Urge Moderators to Raise Issue During Presidential Debates

For more than 200 years, federal laws have protected the American people against the use of military forces on our own soil. Strengthened in 1878 by the Posse Comitatus Act, these laws have guaranteed that the federal government could not use the military for domestic law enforcement purposes.

Without such protection, the federal government could use the might of our army to violate state and individual rights. Moreover, minor incursions by the military into domestic law enforcement activity could lay the foundation for the imposition of martial law at a moment’s notice. This is one slippery slope we don’t want to start sliding down.

Representative Emerson: Please Vote No on Bailout Bridge to Nowhere

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 09:41:09 -0400

Representative Jo Ann Emerson, Missouri 8th Congressional District, was one of only 65 House Republicans to support the original failed bailout bill. I call it the Bailout Bridge to Nowhere.

Dear Representative Emerson,

I was extremely disappointed to learn that you voted for the bailout bill in the House of Representatives. I was even more disappointed in light of the fact that you were one of only 65 House Republicans to support this Bailout Bridge to Nowhere.

It seems to me that many representatives in Congress don't remember who they were elected to represent. I found this quote from an article in the Southeast Missourian telling:

"Emerson was also convinced to vote for the measure when associations representing businesses showed almost unanimous support for the bill, Connor said."

So, despite overwhelming opposition from your constituents (aka voters), you voted to support the interests of "associations" representing business.

Some of your concerns about the bill were listed as follows:

"The concerns ranged from oversight to controls on the "golden parachutes" enjoyed by top executives to bail outs for foreign banks and transparency about the price taxpayers would pay for banks' troubled assets."

It's interesting that amongst your concerns I can't find the following:

1) Should the government take 700 billion from the people and give it to businesses and individuals that, through corruption, poor management, poor decision making, neglect, etc., lost the money in the first place?

2) What effect will the bailout have on this and future generations?

3) What lesson do we teach society by passing a bailout package?

4) Is there a line we don't step over in regulating the free market?

5) What responsibilities do businesses and individuals bear for their own actions?

6) Are there better, less costly ways to deal with our economic situation?

7) What role did government regulation and monetary policy play in the current economic situation?

What role do the people play in the legislative process? Does it make sense to vote on and pass bills when Congress, much less the people, has not had any time to review them?

9) Even if we could agree that a bailout was necessary - which I ensure you we cannot - would this bill address the root of the problem?

I submit that the government should not take 700 billion dollars from the people and give it to businesses and individuals who have made at a minimum poor, and at worst, criminal decisions. This bill will not address or solve the current economic situation. In fact, government intervention will lengthen and deepen the economic downturn by allocating economic resources to businesses and individuals that have already proved that they cannot efficiently use them.

Worse still, we will be teaching this and future generations that mistakes don't have consequences. Incompetence, neglect, poor decision making, corruption, and criminal conduct in the free market doesn't matter because the government will be there to backstop our every mistake. We are crossing, if we haven't already, the line between free market capitalism and socialism - if not something worse than socialism.

For anyone with eyes to see, and ears to hear, there are clearly better ways to deal with the current economic situation. One way, though painful, will inflict less damage on our people, our economic system, our political system, and way of life. We must allow the free market to function. Bad investments must be allowed to be cleared from the market.

Government intervention in the free market, combined with the Federal Reserve Systems' encouragement of below-market interest rates, combined to create a housing bubble. Banks, mortgage lenders, etc. made loans to individuals they never would have made under a purely free market system. Instead, these businesses assumed that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, with their implicit guarantee, would ensure that none of their bad loans went bust.

This, more or less, brings us to the present. It is a present where the House of Representatives, with only hours to review the Senate's language, is making a second attempt to pass a bailout. Apart from the fact that the Senate taking up this budget legislation before the House clearly violates Article I, Section 7 of the Constitution, this is an awful bill. The original House bill was over 100 pages long. The Senate version is over 500 pages long. It seems reasonable that the House should have a few days to review the bill. It seems even more reasonable that the people have a right to review and make comments on the new bill, but that did not happen. This is taxation without representation and is deeply offensive to Americans' sense of fairness.

Even if we could get past all of the above points, which we can't and shouldn't, we're still left with one question. Will this bailout work? The simple answer is no. The depth and complexity of this problem is beyond the reach and intended scope of this or any government. Government, for once, should learn the lessons of its own mistakes and change its ways. The people, thus far, have been much wiser than their government. Sadly, this Congress may not have the wisdom and humility to listen. Of course, we the people, still have the right to choose who will represent us. Unfortunately, should you choose to vote for this legislation, Representative Emerson, I cannot in good conscience vote to return you to Congress.

I pray you will listen to the voice of the people.

Bailout Explained

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 09:23:00 -0400

Let's cut the BS. The proposed government bailout promises you, the taxpayer, two things: 1) you might get some of the 700 billion the government takes from you back; 2) banks that benefit from the bailout might make you a loan.

If you don't want to read the whole article, here's a quick summary. The proposed government bailout promises you, the taxpayer, two things: 1) you might get some of the 700 billion the government takes from you back; 2) banks that benefit from the bailout might make you a loan.

The argument our politicians are utilizing to sell the public the bailout is as follows:

1) The banks, primarily due to the mortgage crisis, are unwilling or unable to lend money.

2) Our economy relies on loans. When banks can't or won't loan money, a credit crunch results.

3) If the government doesn't intervene, small business, families, etc. will suffer because they won't be able to get loans for cars, houses, business, to meet payrolls, etc.

4) A lack of credit will hurt everyone, therefore, we need to bailout they banks and buy their bad debts so they can make loans again.

So, what does the solution look like?

1) Government increases debt ceiling by 700 billion.

2) You, the taxpayer, now are on the hook for 700 billion. You'll either pay it now through an immediate tax increase, or you'll pay it over time as the 700 billion is rolled into the national debt.

3) The Treasury will now buy bad debt, commercial paper, and other financial instruments that the banks can't sell because: 1) there is no buyer for them, or 2) don't want to sell because they would lose huge amounts of money doing so. Some of the commercial paper and other instruments will be worthless.

4) The government will, in essence, issue you, the taxpayer, an I.O.U., promising to eventually recover all or part of the 700 billion. You may want to be skeptical if you remember what Congress did with the Social Security Trust Fund that they drained to spend on other things.

5) The bank will now, in theory, have bad debt off its books to issue loans. Of course, there is no guarantee they will loan money to you or anyone else, since this is the decision of the bank and will depend on many factors.

Summary:

You, the taxpayer, are being asked to pay 700 billion to buy bad bank debt. In return you receive two promises:

1) The government might recover the 700 billion someday.

2) The bank might make you, or somebody else, a loan.

So, while oversimplified, that's the bailout plan in a nutshell. Are you ready to pony up 700 billion based on these two government promises?

P.S.

1) The bailout doesn't take into account the negative consequences of rewarding the bad behavior of banks, mortgage companies and home buyers.

2) The bailout doesn't consider the negative consequences of malinvestment of capital. Instead of letting the free market allocate resources where they will be used most productively, the bailout allocates resources to those who made wrong bets, or worse cheated.

3) The current bailout doesn't account for commercial real estate, which by several accounts, is as bad or worse than the residential mortgage market. Banks have lots of bad loans and paper on the commercial real estate market that they haven't dealt with yet.

4) The bailout doesn't take into account the effect of a likely economic slowdown on tax revenues, which will increase the share of the public debt that each taxpayer owes.

3) The bailout doesn't consider the similar economic crises faced by other western nations and the negative consequences on trade - which will hurt our economy as well.

5) The bailout doesn't consider the effects of the government's effort to artificially maintain the inflated prices of real estate. This represents a hidden tax on all people wanting to purchase a home. Instead of being able to buy a house at a lower price and use the money they save for other things, including investing, saving, or making other purchases, this money will be spent on housing, or home purchases will be delayed. The result is that money that could be directed into the residential real estate market, retail, etc. will be directed to banks and other institutions that issue loans, or will be "lost" as potential home buyers stay in current home or rental.

6) The bailout assumes government is smarter than all of the individuals who make up the free market. That sounds like a worse bet than made by the banks during the housing bubble.

7) The law of unintended consequences. Its almost certain there will be unintended bad consequences of the bailout. Austrian Economics would assert that malinvestment and prolonging the housing bubble will only make our economic situation worse, possibly turning a 12-18 month recession into a longer, deeper recession or depression.

For an in-depth look at the bailout and how it fits into the Austrian Theory of the Business Cycle read the Bailout Reader.

You can use the following text for the cover sheet of your fax:

The whole bailout amounts to two government promises:

1) The government might pay back 700 billion;

2) Banks, once government buys their bad debt, might make loans to the public that bailed them out in the first place.

Is it worth gambling 700 billion dollars on two maybes?

Protest Bush Toxic Bailout - Remember Yellow Cake

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 07:59:53 -0400

Protest continued bailout efforts. Send Congress and President Bush this fax.

President Bush, this morning, continued with his economic scare tactics. The tactics are starting to sound familiar. Bush wants you to think there is an imminent economic threat. It reminded me of the yellow cake uranium line he used to scare up support for invading Iraq.

So I created a simple one page fax that says:

I Didn't Like Bush's Yellow Cake...

So I'll Pass on his Bailout too.

You can grab either a PDF or Word formatted document.

Keep the pressure on Congress. Let them know we don't want their bailout.

Our money is our property and we're not about to give it over to Congress, the president, the Congress, Hank Paulson, Ben Bernanke, the Chamber of Commerce, banks, investment firms, mortgage companies, irresponsible homeowners, or anybody else.

If the Congress Critters are so concerned let them empty their own bank accounts to bailout these unsuccessful investors.

No Bailouts: Letter to Congress

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 12:14:35 -0400

Here is my latest letter to Congress opposing the taxpayer funded bailouts.

I am opposed to government intervention in the free market. The market should be allowed to set prices. This action will artificially inflate housing prices and delay the economic recovery further. If housing prices were allowed to fall, then investors, using the free market, would buy the distressed property rather than government doing so.

This bailout is a repetition of the mistaken Hoover/Roosevelt policies of the 1930's and 1940's. These failed policies, including the welfare state, and government intervention in the free markets are a large part of what got us into this mess in the first place.

The Federal Reserve, if you read the Austrian Economists, creates boom and bust cycles, creates inflation, lowers real wages, and depends on a debt-centered economy in order to function. We should eliminate the Federal Reserve and return to a gold backed currency.

Additionally, we must end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and adhere to the Constitution. Congress should vote to declare war if the military is to be committed in the future.

Congress must not "delegate" its legitimate Constitutional duties to the Federal Reserve and Treasury Department. This is not acceptable. Congress should do its job. Part of its job requires that our elected representatives have a clear understanding of economics. Not just that they receive the opinions from so-called experts, but that they are immersed in economic theory and understand that each new law and regulation that is passed has multiple consequences. Congress has to consider not only the immediate, near-term consequences of its actions, but also the long-term consequences.

Liberty is indivisible. It consists of both individual and economic liberty. Liberty withers and dies when either, or both, economic or individual liberty is assaulted.

Congress has seen fit to assault both our individual liberties - through the Patriot Act, FISA, telecom immunity, elimination of Posse Comitatus,etc. - and our economic liberties through government intervention in the free markets, undue taxation and regulation, the domination of special interests over the public interest, deficit spending, devaluation of the dollar, harmful monetary policy, and the current series of bailouts to those interests it receives donations and other favors from.

None of this is acceptable to me and I will no longer tolerate this situation. I intend to use the power of the vote, the power of recall election, the power of the bully pulpit or any other legitimate action necessary to oppose the immoral, unconstitutional and illegitimate actions.

I think it wise for Congress and the Executive to consider the source of their power and legitimacy. The actions of this current Congress and Executive do not conform either to our founding documents - the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution - nor to the expressed will of the people.

The true crisis is not a financial crisis, but a crisis of constitutionality and legitimacy. Until you understand and act on this constitutional crisis you cannot hope to resolve the problems facing our nation.

Sincerely,

Terry Kinder

Dear Congress, Stop Trying to Help Me

nospam@example.com (Terry) — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 22:28:32 -0400

I recently wrote my Congressional Representative and Senators to ask them to stop trying to help me because their help only hurts.

Dear Congress,

Please stop trying to help me. I don't want your help. I don't need your help. In fact your help is hurting me.

Our country has, depending on the estimate, between 50 trillion and 100 trillion in unmet obligations. The principal obligations are Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare Part D, a relatively new program, will represent a bigger part of the unmet obligation than Social Security soon, if it doesn't already.

This situation would be slightly better had Congress acted responsibly and not spent the so-called Social Security Trust Fund, but it did. I have no expectation that I will ever see any Social Security benefits and would gladly welcome the transition to a privatized system, but I doubt that Congress will take this step unless it becomes absolutely necessary.

Now we face a huge housing and financial crisis. Congress wanted to “help” the economy and extend home ownership as widely as possible. Usually when Congress intervenes in loans, it is to bring in less qualified, and more risky loan recipients. If the market were allowed to work unfettered, the banks and mortgage companies would not make loans to people who don't qualify. However, the implied government guarantees of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were too tempting, and loans were extended with the thought that, even if they went bad, government would pay them off.

This crisis has cascaded throughout the economy generally, and now Congress faces the decision of what to do about it. My answer is to step back and stop trying to help. The law of unintended consequences is always at work in life and economics. Government intervention in the markets, in the long run, makes markets less safe and less liquid. Government intervention in the markets will decrease confidence that our markets are fair. This will result in investors choosing to invest their money in foreign markets instead of our markets. Government intervention in our economy will make us less prosperous, will depress our economy over the long-term, will drive up our deficit, weaken our dollar and maintain prices at artificially high levels. The abandonment of our free market principles will ultimately cause foreign holders of our debt to abandon it and this will be devastating to our economy.

It isn't enough that for years Congress has not acted to ensure that our energy needs were met through exploration, refining, developing nuclear energy, and encouraging alternative energy. Instead, Congress allowed the situation to grow worse. It isn't enough that Congress did precious little to confront our national debt and reduce the size of government so the country would live within its means.

Now, after proving itself incapable of properly managing the assets which it has been entrusted with, government wants to control more and more of our “free market” economy. Worse, the Treasury Department, wants Congress to give it a blank check so it can not only bail out U.S. Banks, but also foreign banks.

This proposed solution isn't a solution at all. You are driving a crippled economy the wrong way down a one-way street. You are driving away from the free market principles which made our country great. These principles don't change based on circumstances, but are constant. What worked at the foundation of the country works today.

Liberty is indivisible and consists of both Economic and Individual Liberty. Congress has done great damage to both Economic and Individual Liberty already. The restrictions on our Individual Liberty through the Patriot Act, FISA, Telecom Immunity, etc. have already been quite egregious. This proposed Treasury Bailout would be equally, if not more, egregious. Following the Hoover/Roosevelt model of intervention in the economy is a fundamentally unsound idea.

I think government has done enough already to help me. I already own a big chunk of the national debt. An increasing percentage of my overly burdensome taxes goes towards the servicing of that debt. Government inaction on energy further saps my economic well-being through high fuel prices. Monetary policy secretly taxes me through a weak dollar, higher costs and a lower real wage. Now the Congress wants to help me some more? I don't see how raising the debt ceiling another 700 billion is going to help. Please stop helping me. You have done enough – more than enough – already. If you want to help me, please recess the Congress. Take a nice long break. Maybe brush up on economics by reading Rothbard, Hayek, vonMises and others from the Austrian School. Slow down and think about the long-term consequences of your actions will have on me and millions of others. You have not only an obligation to those of us alive today, but also to future generations. You would do well to consider that before acting rashly in the face of the current crisis.

Sincerely,

Terry Kinder
