The recent decision by Ireland to accept the International Monetary Fund Economic ‘Fix’ represents Ireland’s surrender of its national sovereignty and identity.  The announced ‘Fix’ from the IMF does stop the withdrawal momentarily however the full withdrawal symptoms will have to be dealt with before the next round of Pusher (IMF)/User (Sovereign Nation) negotiations begin.

This situation and that with the other “P.I.G.S.” is Europe’s grand experiment with socialism as a means to achieve communism has failed.  Failed in as much as it had acting in the capacity of ‘The Pusher’ enslaved the masses with the economic opiates of entitlements and paying for services with other people’s money.

What we are witness to today is politicians on a global scale signing over their nation’s sovereignty to maintain their government positions.  Fearful of the public response to any perceived restoration of personal, local, regional and national fiscal responsibility, government leaders opt for the quick ‘Fix’ the IMF offers.   

The difficulties are:

1. Once a sovereign nation accepts a ‘Fix’ from the IMF the IMF never returns the nations sovereignty that it stole forcing economic slavery upon the peoples of the nations that get the ‘Fix’.
2. The ‘Fix’ is short-term and living with the fear of loss of power and civil unrest the nations keep returning to the ‘Pusher’ for another ‘Fix’ and the IMF keeps raising the cost for its drugs with each visit; in turn the governments raise taxes on the people and businesses creating a vicious cycle that is represented as economic slavery and the IMF being the Slave Master of Nations.

The arrogance of America is that it believes it is still the basis for global economic growth and prosperity.  The politicians in Washington, DC have all but removed America and our Free Market Power from the global economic stage as witnessed by the smack downs we receive at the G-20 Summits.

The Tax and Government Operations Trillion Dollar Stimulus Pork Bills coming at us will leave America at the mercy of the ‘Pusher’ as well, making it P.I.G.S.A. clearing the way for global economic slavery and governance.  

Senate Omnibus Bill: Nearly 2,000 Pages of Runaway Spending and Pork

“As recession-weary Americans continue to tighten their belts, not even trillion-dollar deficits can persuade Senate Democrats to stop their spending spree. In a single 1,924-page bill—which was crafted in secret and will be voted on before anyone has read it fully—Congress is set to spend a staggering $1.1 trillion on discretionary programs for fiscal year (FY) 2011, plus an additional $160 billion in emergency war spending.

To put this in context, non-emergency discretionary spending has already surged by $217 billion (25 percent) in the past three years—plus an additional $311 billion from the failed “stimulus.” Rather than pare back those unsustainable spending hikes, this bill would pile on a $17 billion increase that exceeds even the House’s massive spending bill.

This is exactly the kind of secretive, pork-laden, massive spending bill that induced a voter revolt last month. This brazen rejection of transparency and fiscal responsibility is a major reason why federal spending has soared to $30,000 per household (a post–World War II record of nearly 25 percent of the economy) and created trillion-dollar deficits as far as the eye can see.” -The Heritage Foundation.
