Exporting Dollars and Our Future (5-20-10)

Thursday, 20 May 2010 00:00

Hi, this is conservative candor and I'm Dr. Carl Mumpower...

The biggest 21^st century US export is not wheat, the utensils of war, or the light of liberty. America's greatest production item is the dollar bill - the drug of choice for most of the world's economies. It's that addiction that has paradoxically allowed America to live beyond its means and temporarily avoid the accountabilities for our own bad habits. The color of green has camouflaged our shift from an economy of production to consumption; lending to debt; and responsibility to entitlement. For now the world needs the US dollar as much as we need their loans. Our government is spending two dollars for every one it takes in. China, Japan, and others are funding that extravagance - for now. That's because, for now, there is no replacement for the greenback. For now, the Fed has unlimited power to print our way through today's economic crisis. The price for that indulgence will bring a day when the color of green is no longer in favor. It's to our shame that our young will bear the consequence of an American Dream built on paper...

YWCA and Other Illegal Immigration Enablers (9-9-10)

Hi - this is Dr. Carl with today's candid conservative minute...

Since the seventies, your neighborhood YWCA has made social activism a top priority. What was once a Young Women's Christian Association is now more like a Young Women's Liberal Association. Heck, we couldn't even find the word "Christian" anywhere on their web site. Recent activities include hosting a Webinar on Immigration Reform. Sounds innocent until you get to know their partner, The National Immigration Forum. Their mission is amnesty for the 15 plus million illegals in America. Like a host of non-profits, churches, and political enablers going back at least to Ronald Reagan, these folks support amnesty behind a hollow promise of stronger enforcement. That scam has failed for 25 years. When we prove we're serious about enforcement, then we can talk reform. Until then, the YWCA and enablers are using their non-profit credentials to conceal social engineering with a liberal bias. If you're a conservative with a checkbook, you might want to take a closer look at what your charitable donations are funding...
