"i find that by letters which i have received, that the public creditors are to be the body who are to rise in judgement against me and try to expel me from the senate. this is only what i expected. nor are they the only ones. the adoption of the new constitution raised a singular ferment in the minds of men. every one ill at ease in his finances; every one out at the elbows in his circumstances; every ambitious man, every one desirous of a short cut to wealth and honors, cast their eyes on the new constitution as the machine which could be wrought to their purposes, either in the funds of speculation it would afford, the offices it would create, or the jobs to be obtained under it. not one of these has found a patron in me. in fact i have generally set my face against such pretensions. as such men are generally wanting in virtue, their displeasure, nay their resentment, may be expected. 'why, you want nothing neither for yourself nor friends!' said a senator one day to me in some surprise. it was somewhat selfish but i could not help uttering a wish that he could say so..." july 9th 1790 william maclay's journal of the second session of the first congress._______________________________________________________________
so...feeding at the public trough probably was a concept that predated the constitution...how not if there was a line of card sharps, defrocked clergy, and stock-jobbers waiting in line to dip in? bailouts and corporate welfare would seem to have been part and parcel of the history of the federal government since its inception as a lawfully ( someone needs to take the time to explain why i should harbor any respect for a legal system propagated by a confederacy of whores, seemingly from day one...rule of law my ass ) constituted entity...the past five years of federal handouts and the debacle of quantitative easing is simply a continuation of the "american dream " as conceived by post-colonial political operatives with an axe to grind and a powerful lust for a life of fast cash and low rent debauchery that required the creation of a new and deeply inbred native born aristocracy as a yankee response to the twisted group in "the old country" that came up with the hellfire club... fooled into believing in their own righteousness by parodying the relentless puritanism of their exiled forefathers with tent revivals and a national currency sprinkled with the word god this strain of shameless political hookers carries on deluding themselves with ersatz ideals of public service and an adherence to duty and robbing the republic blind...fuck these people.
