12 Days of Solutions, Day 12: Streamlining the federal government
December 21, 2012 at 12:39 pm in News by Tea Party Patriots 3 Comments
Typically, when budget debates get serious in Washington, politicians retreat into talking points. Democrats talk about raising taxes while Republicans talk about eliminating fraud, waste, and abuse in federal spending. As Tea Party activists across the country know, raising taxes will do little for the federal budget, and most Republican efforts to diminish inefficiencies in the federal budget are woefully inadequate.
However, one organization has made streamlining the federal government its primary goal. According to Strong America Now, 25% of the federal government’s spending is wasted. And using the private-sector organizational streamlining process known as Lean Six Sigma Strong America Now has a plan to balance the budget without raising taxes. From their website:
- 25% of discretionary and entitlement spending is waste
- We can eliminate $500 billion per year of waste spending by 2017
- Together with portions of either the Deficit Commission plan or the Ryan plan, the budget will be balanced in 2017 with no new taxes
- Obamacare must be repealed and replaced
Strong America Now’s estimate of 25% of spending being waste is not unreasonable. Consider what Tea Party Patriots found without much effort. Between duplication, improper payments, fraud, and costly congressional mandates for certain federal contractors, there is much change needed in how the federal government spends your tax dollars.
One critical part of Strong America Now’s budget plan is its Medicare reforms. Essentially, this section of the site looks at reforming the entire system of inefficient payments and overtreatments that have plagued the Medicare system for years. Hospital administrators are brought into the process, communication is improved, and the kinds of payment and care processes that have made the Mayo Clinic and Kaiser Foundation renowned organizations are implemented.
In the long run, it will take more than streamlining federal spending in order to prevent a fiscal collapse of the nation. Social Security and interest payments, for example, will continue to skyrocket, though the Lean Six Sigma changes to Medicare and the Defense Department – among other agencies and programs – would help a great deal. However, a federal system as large and complex as ours will never be able to really root out all efficiencies, and so the government itself must continue to shrink its role in the lives of citizens as well as its cost.
here’s a few solutions for you:
San Francisco: The Al Bundy Economy
The only thing funnier than critters here lining up to buy the latest shoes off the boat is the attitude of the salesmen. It’s an Al Bundy fantasy. You can actually get laid here for selling shoes at 50X cost.
What that should tell you is that:
You can replace the empire with a program of any legal and accounting set that results in a distribution of delays, in a programmable positive feedback loop of positive feedback loops, and your costs will plummet, your control will increase, and your economic activity will skyrocket, because all the make workers – lawyers, accountants, CEOs, public administrators, etc. will be able to shop 24 hrs/day. Just assign them to work at home.
We can do things the easy way, or the hard way…
Equal Rights & Inclusion, Under the Law
That my friend is the face of a tyrant, above the law. What’s truly funny is that the majority has normalized itself to think its behavior is, at some point in time, going to be acceptable, by hook or by crook, to the minority creating all the economic profit to offset the majority’s losses.
The majority has its servants kidnap the minority’s kids for the purpose of extorting a 90% tax, spends a few million per on the mistake, and then records it as G, leveraging the result with monetary expansion to destroy its tax base, and, finally, is appalled to find its economy collapsing and all the recorded wealth in its pension plans evaporated. Stupid f-ing lizards.
So, I had this habit in elementary school of solving all the problems in the math book within a few weeks, and turned them into the teacher, just to see the expression on her face, to know what I was dealing with. Anyway, my fourth grade teacher is ready and waiting for me. She rips up my handwritten homework and tells me that I will follow along with the class and only do the problems prescribed, as prescribed, by her decree.
For each chapter, I turned in a copy of the original, with all problems solved, the rest of the year, which revealed all the ‘errors’ in the publisher’s text, which she followed, running the entire class errant. I was in the principal’s office pretty much every day, until he excused me from class all together. In other words, F-U, which, ironically, was the academic and conduct grade I received for the subjective parts of the class, but, under the then version of no child left behind policy, she had no choice but to advance me. The next year, I got an advanced copy and had it ready on the first day of class.
With the institution of early childhood education, you only have about two years to get your children geared up, when the majority will realize that your kid is going to be a whole lot more intelligent than their kids, but that is still plenty of time if you are prepared. They are not just coming after your guns…which, with a decent education, are unnecessary.
In case anyone is interested, in due process, what you want to do is publish your free speech moderation algorithm and compare it to your evolving objectives, modifying the former accordingly, and do the same with your objectives and your goal, jumping out randomly as necessary, which will give you the event horizon. You will ultimately have a distribution, an event horizon of event horizons. But what does a racist, sexist, whatever-ist laborer know about enterprise architecture? There was a time when I helped all comers in my physical life, but I am here, am I not? There is no law that can force me to tell you what is coming, or its underlying algorithm. Once we go full AC, there will be no escape for DC, until the next modernization.
As the Worm Turns, Inward to Bubble World
In an irony of ironies, the majority is betting on the Fed, because their something-for-nothing entitlements depend on it to prop up the market, and the Fed is taking that bet, betting against itself with monetary insurance, liquidating the entitlement system, and leveraging the losses as GDP increases. Greed works alright, f-s itself every time, reporting its progress as economic activity, increasing artificial demand for artificial supply, in a positive feedback loop, a line waiting in line, chasing its own tail to no end. The cattle don’t realize that Black Friday is about conditioning them to create both the artificial demand and supply that liquidates their position. Classic Marvin the Martian.
Take government spending. Eliminate the part borrowed. Trace the remaining tax base to previous years borrowed, leveraged with declining interest rates. When Statey comes to your door, give him whatever he wants, until he stops coming to your door. It’s the Bugs Bunny / Yosemite Sam dynamite exchange thing. Crack me the f- up, a conspiracy of collective stupidity. That executive order curve will be vertical in no time.
An economy is like a solar system. If you take one of those planets away, it implodes, and the rocket scientists have gutted empire labor. F-ng brilliant. It’s the elevator problem again. I go in to mod an elevator, and the lazy a-, middle class union tradesmen line up for a ride, bitching and moaning like their union card entitles them. When I get the temporary up, everyone else gets a ride.
I’ve carried my share of motors up the stairs to the top of the building, and moved 50k lbs. of freight by hand every day for years. I am old, I am cranky, and I do not give a f- about some nigger in a dark alley with a knife. Watching a nigger make the mistake of knifing my dad without killing him cured me of that little problem early on in life.
The kids have everything they need to avoid these lines all together. If the majority wants to get beyond the lines, it might want to get the f-out of the way, so they can modernize the economy, or expect the black hole to reach out and drag the entire middle class into a living hell. One way or the other makes no difference to me. Its representatives already took my children, to support its something-for-nothing economy. Your privacy, your economy, is not a function of capital. Capital is about appearance. It does no work. It’s History.
There is nothing magic about the Fed, or the US Government, spinning artificial demand for the supply of an artificial world, as Kissinger’s unwinding attests. Let’s see, who is behind that nigger errand boy anyway? Oh, that’s right, the majority, in a peer pressure parade, robots following robots, in a zoo, built for the purpose.
Speaking of executive orders, Kissinger, Nixon, foreign investment, technology Pavlov swaps, and feedback signals, what was Kennedy’s sin, what nigger got MLK shot, where was LBJ from, and how are those wars on poverty, drugs, etc., etc., etc., working out for your children, and your pension? Bernie Sanders + Grover Norquist / 2 = Barack Obama. The President is not a choice; it’s a parade of losers competing to be leader. Who is responsible for the Patriot Act and what did they get in return? Why don’t we all just join the MAssholes in Vermont?
That’s it, keep fing with labor
Any plan that puts off correcting what is awry until 2017 is no plan at all. Likewise, any plan that doesn’t include ending the Fed and IRS, the very two private bankster entities that have brought the USA to its knees financially, is not a serious plan. All our fiscal problems could end tomorrow if these corrupt entities were ended, and the government began printing “greenbacks” for only the cost of the ink and paper. Nothing to borrow, or to repay with interest. Everyone would accept greenbacks, as they are already legal tender and have been since Abraham Lincoln’s Presidency. So why isn’t anyone talking about this very REAL solution that would avert the so-called Fiscal Cliff and put us on the road to prosperity. There would be no need to borrow, and just like in our great grandfather’s day there would be no need to collect taxes of any kind. No state or federal income tax, no property tax, no sales tax, etc. Government printed Greenbacks could fund all government programs, including healthcare, and pay for all infrastructure projects as well as military costs. When will people wake up to this reality?
Rickoff,
Do you know anything about economics or history? Germany did exactly that in the 1920′s. It resulted in hyper infation and gave us Hitler….. a real winning combination.
The Confederate States did that during the Civil War….it worked really great for them too!
