Hillary Clinton Wants to Waste Your Money on Alzheimer's

     After being away for a while from blogging, I returned just this evening to read a blog about how Hillary Clinton intends to pump 2 billion dollars a year of your money into government research of Alzheimer's disease.

This politician just doesn't let up.  She knows that any money she takes away from the private sector comes out of your pocket.  And, private companies, such as Eli Lilly & Co. (LLY), are on the brink of marketing breakthrough drugs for Alzheimer's without any cost to you whatsoever.

I think that the key point to keep in mind in this issue is philosophical.  Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism holds that: "The proper functions of a government fall into three broad categories, all of them involving the issues of physical force and the protection of men's rights: the police, to protect men from criminals--the armed services, to protect men from foreign invaders--the law courts, to settle disputes among men according to objective laws." (Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal, p.384)

It has been interpreted by prominent Objectivists that the three legitimate branches do include two others (the diplomatic and the treasury) to make them function.  However, it is clear that that is the final line where government legitimacy ends.

Since public Alzheimer's research does not fall under any category of legitimate government, Hillary Clinton's pledge to spend your money on that is a lie.  It will not happen.

Impeach Obama Anyway

     It has been said that Congress should not impeach Obama because it will never succeed.  Well, now we are seeing the consequence of a leader who hates this country, and wants to destroy America, dashing unchecked with no reservations about fundamentally annihilating us.  My answer to these Representatives is: "Who cares?"

I believe that Obama would easily be impeached if the House of Representatives began the process.  However, if not, that is beside the point.  The goal of this action is to slow him down in this final year.  At the very least, it would distract him; and realistically, considering the dozens and dozens of "high Crimes and Misdemeanors", not to mention "Treason", (to quote from the Constitution of the United States of America), the possibility does exist that his "power" would be diminished--if not extinguished.
