Grumpa Joe's Place

     At the rate Obama is spending our future generations into slavery, he will soon need more sources of money. At the local level, mayors and governors have sold off infrastructure to raise money to quench their spending habits. Chicago has sold their parking meters to a private company for a ton of money. They sold it on the basis that the interest from the money when invested would fuel the needs of the city. Bottom line, the money is almost all spent.  Chicago also sold a road. Richard Daley the father built a road called the Chicago Skyway. It connects Chicago to Gary, Indiana. Daley Senior had a vision of thousands of Hoosiers commuting to Chicago over this toll-road.  He saw toll money fueling his penchant for spending. The road fizzled. The Hoosiers did not use it neither did the Chicagoans. Richard Daley the son sold the road to an Australian Company, thereby unloading a white elephant that needed a lot of repair.  

     With his federal deficit rising astronomically, what will Obama sell to finance his need to spend? Will it be the Grand Canyon, the Colorado River, Alaska, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Bakken oil formation? Or, will he be tempted to dip into the nuclear arsenal?  The president is on a mission to dispose of the country’s nuclear arms. The rogue nations are working overtime to build atom bombs.  He could kill two birds with one stone by helping the rogues out. They may even begin to love us.
