Haiti - Heaven on Earth


Here are some interesting facts on Haiti. Oddly enough, most of these things listed below describe how all of us should live. If Haiti has another earthquake and gets rid of about 90% the population down there, I might just consider moving.

-Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. - BIG DEAL! I'm the poorest person I know of in My area (according to government standards), and probably one of the happiest and stress free too.

- 80% of the population in Haiti is living under the poverty line. - Again .. this is a GOOD THING!

-
Most Haitians live on less than $2 a day. - EXCELLENT! I commend you. Your proof that you don't need money to live and be a slave to the system!!

-
More than two-thirds of the labor force do not have formal jobs. - Oh My God .. I'm starting to actually get a boner now! MOST of the people don't have a job ....... and how is this considered a BAD thing??

-
Haiti has no regular military forces. The Army, Navy, and Air Force have been demobilized. - More money saved !!! And you don't see a lot of other people around the world trying to bomb Haiti either .. interesting how that works.

- And on a funny side note: China has committed 1 million dollars to help out the victims of the earthquake. 1 MILLION DOLLARS!!!! HA HA!!! Hell .. Spain gave 4.3 million alone, but China, the economic KING PIN of the world who probably sells 1 million dollars worth of shit to Walmarts across the United States every single minute of every single day has been nice enough to donate 1 million dollars to Haiti. What a bunch of dicks!!! They might have just as well sent a Hallmark card instead.

----------------

So there you have it .. Haiti is NOT one great place to live .. but it should be. They have everything going for them. They don't have jobs, they don't have a tax system, they don't have a military going around the world 'nation building' at enormous expense to the people, and they live on a nice tropical island where it's warm and they could just lay on the beach and eat coconuts all day. Aside from the ground trembling a bit now and then, or a occasional hurricane, I think this is a great place to live, and if they didn't have 10 million people living there and they were just simple folks living in straw huts you wouldn't have so many of them crushed in BUILDINGS!!!! When is the last time you read about a guy getting crushed in His straw hut??? I rest my case!! And if they didn't spend their days doing nothing but breeding, then the death toll would be like 20 and it would have hardly even made the news. Strange what happens when you put 10 million people on two fault lines.

I would guarantee that if we could turn back time and put Me on the island of Haiti to make it a nation, it would be the envy of the whole world. People would be quitting their jobs and selling their SUV's and cell phones and living the simple life all over the world.

Poverty

Oh the sorrows of poverty. How can one EVER get by in America today living under poverty levels? I'll tell you how .... by being lazy and screwing over each and every tax paying citizen we have. Not to mention a bleeding heart government that has NO problem dolling out massive bucks to help these deadbeats who do NOT want to go out and make something of themselves.

But then there are the FEW people who truly are unfortunate, such as the lady below. Look at Her!! Poor thing ....... She can barely afford to have clothes!! We .. as a government, SHOULD be helping Her out!!



















But seriously, here's a list of things you qualify for under poverty.

  • Community Services Block Grant
  • Head Start
  • Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program
  • Community Food and Nutrition Program
  • Health care with Medicaid
  • Hill-Burton Uncompensated Services Program
  • AIDS Drug Assistance Program
  • State Children’s Health Insurance Program
  • Medicare – Prescription Drug Coverage (subsidized portion only)
  • Community Health Centers
  • Migrant Health Centers
  • Government housing programs
  • Family Planning Services
  • Health Professions Student Loans — Loans for Disadvantaged Students
  • Health Careers Opportunity Program
  • Scholarships for Health Professions Students from Disadvantaged Backgrounds
  • Job Opportunities for Low-Income Individuals
  • Assets for Independence Demonstration Program
  • Food Stamp Program
  • Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)
  • Child and Adult Care Food Program
  • Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program
  • Weatherization Assistance for Low-Income Persons
  • Job Corps
  • National Farmworker Jobs Program
  • Workforce Investment Act Youth Activities
  • Low-Income Taxpayer Clinics
  • Legal Services for the Poor

Soooooooo, free housing, free food, free utilities, free child care, free lawyers, free scholarships, free health care. I think WOW just about covers it!!! Is there any reason people DON'T want to get out of poverty? And YOUR taxpayer dollars are going to fund all this crap! YOU, the people are funding all these programs to create more and more deadbeats who are too worthless to go out and EARN a living. It's such crap folks.

And out of that whole list above, do you know how many of them I'll be asking for? NONE! That's right ..... NONE! The only thing I ask for is that I don't pay federal taxes on my income. That's all .... short and sweet. Don't take OUR money that WE'VE earned and fund stupid programs like the one above, or give it to some worthless CEO to bail Him out of whatever stupid financial crisis He got himself into while He basks in the sun down in Rio De Janeiro.

So even though it would be great to soak in the lavish lifestyle of all those poverty programs, I cannot stoop that low and apply for any of them. I'm doing it MY WAY, and I'll sleep easy at night too!!!

Poverty



According to the U.S. Government, the official poverty level for a family of four is $21,200, and dammit, I intend to beat it too.

Why in the hell would you WANT to stay under poverty levels? Well, when you start making more money, you start paying in to the government. When you start paying into the government, they start spending YOUR money.

Now if the U.S. government has taught us nothing else, it that they don't have the first CLUE on how to spend money. If we all looked at the government as a lesson on how to spend money then, uhmmmm .... well .... the United States would be in the exact mess that it's in already!!! Looks like I'm to late ! Shit!

Yup, I guess I failed on that venture. I, unfortunately, have made "above poverty" levels most of my adult life and supported the government to help out all you worthless deadbeats. Now, every Tom, Dick, and Harry is reaching their hand into the pockets of a bankrupted government trying to get every penny it can to bail them out of what really comes down to stupid decision making. Every failed business attempt, I'm suppose to pay for. Every overspent mortgage, I'm suppose to pay for. Every credit card maxing bankrupt loser, I'm suppose to pay for. WELL NOT ANYMORE!!!!!! I AIN'T going to make enough for you to TAKE!!! How do you like that??

I know what your thinking, why in the hell would you subject yourself to a life of poverty just to seek revenge on a few people who take advantage of the system? To that I would answer :

1. Just because the government rates a certain dollar amount as poverty, does NOT mean it's anywhere near REAL poverty.

2. We, as Americans, really don't know what "poverty" is. We are fat, lazy, and spoiled. Living on a little less money is HARDLY the description of poverty from a "world" definition.

3. Values. I have found that as the money shrinks, values increase. Strange isn't it? Yeah, we might just have to stay home now and then and entertain our children the old fashioned way, not buy their happiness. And in the long run, it will pay off big time.

4. With the lifestyle I have proposed in my previous blogs, I should still have tons of money left for all the extras in life. Don't forget, I don't plan on living like 99% of you out there, therefore, I won't be needing the money to entertain that lifestyle either. In fact, I bet I'll still be going to Disneyland next year with the family, and I'll bet it will be bought in cold, hard, cash. In fact, it will have to be cash ... I don't (and won't), own a credit card. How's THAT for poverty??

5. I've already mentioned how to get rid of your water, electric, heat, and grocery bill in previous blogs. And if your stupid enough to have a vehicle on payments, then your to stupid to be reading this blog. So all that should be left is your house payment. I think $22,000 a year is enough to make the house payment, unless your one of those dumb asses who bought a house that's WAY over their income level. And chances are, if your the typical American, you probably did.

6. When you pay in NO money to the government for taxes, then ALL the money you make is YOURS! The money you make when your under the poverty level is actually 15 - 30% more compared to the amount you make when your above poverty. YOUR money STAYS as YOUR MONEY, not the governments.

7. Scroll up to the picture at the beginning of this blog to see "true" poverty. THAT is poverty, not what I'm doing! What I'm doing is just going by the governments numbers to keep from helping out the deadbeats in the world.

So I encourage everyone to quit their current job and become the store greeter at Walmart for under $22,000/year. It will do you a lot of good to "turn back" time a little bit and get back to what's important in life. Not to mention if enough of us do it, the government will collapse upon itself and it can start over too. You see, 2 birds with 1 stone ...... where's the down side??



Todays RBV: Matthew 19:24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.


DAMN ... I almost forgot! It's the only way to get into Heaven too !!!!!!!!
