I’m not necessarily on board with the thinking that Barack Obama is entirely incompetent. Based on his sick ideology, Obama may very well be intent on destroying America as it has been known around the world for more than two centures.

On Obama’s second-to-last leg of a $4 million fundraising trip for Democrats, he told a group of supporters in Columbus, Ohio:

“Slowly but surely, we are moving in the right direction. We’re on the right track.”

Responding to a question about Social Security, the Obama insisted:

“So here’s the thing. Social Security is not in crisis.”

Most of us know better but the rapid pace of changes and damaging legislature explains the basic intent to make changes to grow government beyond what anyone would imagine in a Constitutional Republic. Or, is Obama simply divorced from reality statement?

Social Security has always been a piggy bank for the political class to use to pay off other pet projects. They don’t pay a return on investment, they tell you when you can have your money, and you are limited on what you may earn when collecting you money.

The 2010 Social Security Trustees Report, released on August 5, shows that the program will run cash-flow deficits in both 2010 and 2011 due to the effects of the recession. Then in 2015, Social Security will begin to inflict massive permanent annual deficits on American taxpayers.

Let’s not forget Medicare and Medicare to round out the Big Three government entitlement programs all set to bankrupt the United States in the near future.

The Age of Entitlements Must End and The Heritage Foundation’s offers some well thought out solutions:

Put These Programs on a Budget: Congress should set firm and enforceable budget caps for Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. Put these programs on a firm, long-term budget—say 30 years—and require Congress to review these budgets regularly. Triggers or other mechanisms should be deployed to enforce budget limits if Congress fails to act.

Fix Medicare: Establish a new Medicare “defined contribution” system as we transition away from today’s costly and inefficient fee-for-service system. New retirees, just like federal workers, would receive a government contribution to purchase the health insurance that best meets their needs. The contribution, or “premium assistance,” would be capped but reviewed periodically. An individual’s contribution would be adjusted according to income and underlying medical condition.

Fix Medicaid: Healthier families should be allowed into private health insurance with their share of Medicaid money. We need patient-centered care to give the disabled, elderly, and their families a say in the care and services they receive. Medicaid’s long-term care benefit must be transformed from an open-ended entitlement to an insurance-based model of private coverage as part of a general strategy to boost long-term care insurance.

Fix Social Security: To boost savings, we need to include a system of voluntary personal accounts within Social Security. The system as a whole should be made solvent by transforming the remainder of Social Security to “real insurance,” focusing benefits on those who really need them during retirement while strengthening the safety net for poorer retirees. Incentives such as removing payroll taxes for workers over the retirement age should accompany these changes.

Increase Retirement Savings: Automatic enrollment, whereby workers are automatically enrolled in employer-sponsored retirement savings but allowed to opt out, should be expanded, and automatic IRA, a simple payroll deduction system that small businesses would offer to employees, should be created.

It’s not only Conservatives who believe in tightening America’s fiscal belt. The latest Democracy Corps poll, performed by Democratic pollsters Stan Greenberg, James Carville and Bob Shrum, shows that by a 64% – 29% margin, the American people believe that things in this country “have gotten pretty seriously off on the wrong track.”

So we ask – Is Barack Obama delusional or driven by Marxist ideology and lying to the American public? Obama should be voted out of office and we can elect representatives who respect the Constitution, America and listen to the will of the people. Indeed!
