THREE POTS OF GOLD

As a kid I heard there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow and that fascinated me.

I spent hours thinking about how I could get to the end of the next rainbow I saw and become rich.

I was going spend, spend, and spend until I could spend no more.

Alas, alas, as I grew older I realized that the rainbow always moved farther away from me and then would disappear as I tried to approach it.

People seek the pot of gold in many ways, they beg, borrow; steal and some even will work to attain it.

Then there are the politicians! They are the ones who have really found the real pot of gold, and they spend, spend and spend. They are the smartest people in the world for they have control of all Americans. They can do anything they want to do.

The only restraint on them is, they disagree with one another on the best way to spend our money.

Where is that pot of gold we are talking about and who can spend it? That is a good question.

Bringing things up to the present we find that our President is the one who says where our money can be spent. It seems he has three pots of gold and they are full of wherewithal.

The first pot is the printing press, if he needs a trillion dollars he just orders it to be printed and it is done.

The second pot of gold is the rich and the elderly who have saved money while they labored. They have the wealth he wants and all he has to say is “Fork it over,” and it is his.

This was learned from his father’s philosophy; the senior Obama (in his own words) proposed that the State confiscate private land and raise taxes with no upper limit. In fact, he insisted that "Theoretically there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed."

The third pot of gold is to tax the working class people to the edge of rebellion. He has tremendous support among many people for this action for they will be the financial recipients of this accomplishment.

The people can only wait until it’s over and try to start looking again for the rainbow and their pot of gold.
