With all the fervor that has been experienced over the last month concerning the “Debt Crisis” back in Washington D.C. it seemed only right to take a minute and get in front of the camera with Thomas to discuss the crazy stuff going on in washington how it may affect you and I. So watch and enjoy!

Do you know how many bureaus, departments, boards, and agencies there are in the Federal Government? It will blow your mind to discover just how many exist on your dime! As you go to work every day, working hard to support your family, do you realize your labor is helping to fund things like the Japan-United States Friendship Commission, Migratory Bird Conservation Commission, and the Indian Arts and Crafts Board? Yeah, we knew you’d be excited about it too. We also examine a report card of Obama’s first 2 years in office. Here’s a hint: everything is moving in the wrong direction. We also discussed the Utah Compact and learn that not all Mormons in Utah see eye-to-eye with each other or the church leadership on the topic of Illegal Immigration. We finish up our lively discussion by learning about Congressman Davey Crockett’s (yes that one) hard-learned lesson about using government as a means to “do good” in society with tax payer money. Let’s just say, he learned and didn’t repeat his mistake, unlike our politicians today! This was a fun Friday broadcast you won’t want to miss!

In a recent upset for Utah Representative Craig Frank of Legislative District 57, He found that he was not longer elegible to serve as a state rep for his district. This was not because of some nefarious activity, but simply because of a clerical error that occurred a decade ago. This error wouldn’t have impacted his continued service had a recently proposed Constitutional Amendment not been passed in the recent election. But to aid pain to injury, guess who was the head of the Committee that reviewed the legislation and recommended it be reviewed by the house of representatives? Listen in to Find out…

With Mike Lee, Utah’s Freshman Senator and many other Freshman Congressmen declaring their intent to vote against raising the Federal Debt Ceiling at all hazard, many in DC are declaring how taking that approach could spell doom and destruction for our nation and it’s triple A Credit Rating.

What does that really mean for Washington and for US Citizens? Listen in as we talk about the reality of where we are, how we got her, and what we should do to prevent it from happening again.

When people think of chickens and the GOP I am sure many different ideas may be conjured up in the minds of men. But these are two separate topics, the first dealing with city ordinances that forbid the keeping of chickens, and what the principles may be around having those sort of ordinances. Then we discuss the GOP taking out a multi-million dollar line of credit to finance their political activities…. isn’t this the new party of fiscal conservatism? are we practicing what we preach?

How much did the United States owe in debts at the time the Constitution was adopted – $4 million, $79 million, or $212 million?$79 million. (Nearly $12 million was owed to foreign banks and creditors, and $42 million was owed to banks and contractors in the United States. In addition, the states owed $25 million for defense expenditures during the Revolutionary War. The federal government assumed these state debts.)

Listen to our call for freedom from November 24th 2009, where we discuss the impending Budget Shortfall which will be experienced next year by most of the states in the union. In this discussion we brought on several panel members to research the problem of their respective states, and the present solutions that will help the states overcome their dire situation. Different options for cutting spending and minimizing the shortfall. Different possibilities for generating additional income. And much more.

Which President paid off half of the entire national debt in eight years – Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, or Woodrow Wilson?Answer: Thomas Jefferson (He did this primarily by selling of vast regions of the public lands so they could be cultivated and developed by individual citizens. This was so successful that he abolished the federal sales tax – an excise tax – and dismantled the revenue service that collected it.)
