Have we gain any understanding in this last year?  I had to post this because we now have a year of additional information on which to judge our sanity and our reasoning.  It appears in my opinion things have not gotten better.  The continuation of deterioration in the economic system along with President Obama now in office and taking us down the path to socialism cannot be deigned, at least not by some.

Before your read last years post read this;

 “For the first time in more than three decades, Social Security recipients will not get any increase in their benefits next year.  The absence of a cost-of-living adjustment, calculated under a formula set by law, will be a shock to older Americans already hit by plummeting home values.”

Now if that isn’t enough to shock all you over the hill gang, try this on for size;

 “In just seven years, Social Security’s benefit obligation will exceed its cash income from tax revenues, thus other programs will begin to be tapped for resources.   By 2037, the Social Security trust funds will be exhausted.  As a result, future retirees will face as immediate across-the-board benefit cut of up to 24 percent.
Medicare is also headed for bankruptcy, but at a greater speed and with more severe consequences.  It will begin running a cash deficit this year and will be bankrupt by 2017.”

Does anyone UNDERSTAND what is going on, if you don’t let me try and explain it to you    READ ON with the understanding I have changed the first paragraph to make it more read able and I really don’t think I helped that much; anyway you can always go back and read the original.

   Is That Understanding?

The Human being cannot choose “Good” or “Evil” if he does not understand the issue at hand.  The “Will” which is more then the guidance of action by reason and understanding, it is something in the soul of man that allows him to choose his path, if that be perverted the understanding that he is being confused by his illogical thought process and that it is replaced by emotion and/or corrupt reason through the fall of Adam and Eve will not be recognized.  One can readily see how the “Free Will” is not free at all and can never play a part in correcting anything.

This premise hinges on the fact that humanity has a corrupt nature through the fall of Adam.  Without the acceptance of this we cannot make any sense of man’s flawed and perverted reasoning, lack of education just does not explain it.

John Calvin in his “Institutes of Christian Religion” Book 1 Chapter 15 Section 8 edited by McNeill and translated by F.L. Battle said this:

”But the highest rectitude was in his mind and will, and all the organic parts were rightly composed to obedience, until in destroying himself corrupted his own blessing.”

We can readily see how the righteous person is an obnoxious thing to the wicked; the baser sort will look upon even Gods providence in society with envy.

Psalm 62:4 King James Bible

”… they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah”

C. H. Spurgeon “Daily Treasure” Daily reading of the Psalms (May 16th reading) said this:

”It is always best to begin with God and then may we confront our enemies.  Make all sure with Heaven, then may you grapple with Earth and Hell.”

I have been attempting to point out how corrupt our reasoning has been since Adam’s fall, without much success.  That be as it may on Friday something occurred to me that was even more frightening then the fact that we have a reasoning process that is corrupt.  You see I was assuming that even with this corrupt reasoning we still had a debate going on between the “Democrats” and the “Republicans” in Congress.  Well I fear that is not so, and worse it can now start to be shown that truth, logic and the good of the citizens is not the goal of anything the politicians are debating and/or doing for us.

Now what is really the scariest aspect of this deception is the fact that the American people have not come to the realization that this is going on.  But when they do realize the fact that the people are being used as pawns in some game of power and control for a one-world order, I’m afraid the complexion and mood of the game will change to ugly and nasty.

It is now May 2009 and this is true—-frustration is building.

The frustration is building and the question is starting to be asked; WHY are they not fixing these problems?  When the answer comes back, they don’t want to because this confused mess suites their purpose.  We will have the true beginnings of understanding of the real problem and all Hell will break loose. That understanding could be tomorrow or 100 years from now, but it will come and so will the end of this country, as we know it.

(Stick around until the end of the year)

I don’t think it will be a 100 years from now, not after I read that regarding SS and Medicare, if it is true.  Now just for the record—I did not make up the SS and Medicare news flash up.  It came to me in the form of an E-Mail Newsletter—who wrote it or who sent it to me is not important, we will, those of you on SS will find out in Jan. 2010 when you get your first check in 2010 if it is true.  Until then enjoy the ride—if anyone out there finds out it happens to be true send me an E-mail.
