Well apparently there is a new website that tracks state spending. Some of it is really interesting. The website is called “CtSunlight.org”
It is divided into three categories: Payroll, Pensions and Checks to Business and People.
The Checks to Businesses and People is real good. All you have to do is just hit “Go” you don’t have to type anything in-is is all done for you.
Click HERE to see the site.
I can tell you one thing-MY SPOUSE IS GOING TO FLIP BECAUSE HIS SALARY IS ON IT!!
UPDATE: my spouse came home and DID NOT FLIP OUT!! (He already knew about the website)
To be honest, I never really knew what he made-I DO NOW!!
On the home page-click the “Payroll” button and type in “Kleist, Derf” NICE ONE STATE OF CT-THANK YOU!!
I know many people in his office-now I know what they make. God this is like opening a bathroom door and finding someone on the toilet-EMBARASSING.!!
I know he is a state employee but still-my spouse will probably feel his privacy is being violated because now it is easier than sin to see what he and other state employees make. But I will tell you, this man earns every penny. He has to collect employer tax-which pays into the unemployment fund-YES A SOCIALIST PROGRAM. He really risks it-he goes everywhere-Fair Haven, New Haven, Bridgeport-HE GOES ALONE!!
So please keep that in mind.
I thought the town of Cheshire wasted money. Wait until you see what the State of Connecticut blew thousands of dollars on-some clown for the Department of Correction and “chilled” water!! GIVE IT UP!!
Speaking of Socialist, those teabaggers are really starting to get on my nerves. NO THEY ARE NOT REALLY.
I did see them on Monday in front of the town hall in Cheshire. I stopped to talk to them again but then things started to heat up and some words got exchanged. This man started yelling in my ear and ringing this bell. I think I went deaf he was so close. I told him to back off-some other guy was taping my appearance-I told him it was OK. Things got a little heated but is OK too-it is just passion. They have a right to express their opinions. I like to push it and get their blood boiling a bit by confronting them, but I back off. They had a casket and asked me to stand by it for a photo. I did even better than that-I GOT IN IT!!
So there-I can take it!!
Here is the meaning of “Marxism:”
Marxism opposes capitalism, a practice which it finds exploitative and economically irrational. According to the Marxist theory, a capitalist society is characterized by two classes: the privileged and the oppressed. People who own or control all the functions or necessities of life form the capitalists class and those who work on these functions, under the dominance of the capitalist class are the workers. The basic concepts of this philosophy remain the same, although it has been developed, added or interpreted in many different ways. The living experiences of Lenin and Trotsky, who played a pivotal role in the Russian Revolution, were added to the Marxist ideas. It helps you to understand the oppressed classes around the world and the course of their struggle.
Marxism entails that all human beings should have equal rights and privileges. A person is exploited, if he is made to work more than what is required, to produce sufficient goods or services. It has been a regular feature of human civilization. This results in outbursts or revolts by the oppressed class, when they are made to work beyond their capabilities, for the interests of a few. Marxism severely criticizes these policies. It also demands a fair share of the profits or benefits of any process that is designed for enriching the quality of human beings. Marx stated that the class of people is decided by the relation of means of production and the labor associated with it. Thus, the surplus is the difference of that value, for which the product is sold and the payment made to the worker for that product.
Further, the Marxist philosophy demands that a revolution or an uprising must occur if a certain section maintains dominance over another section, with respect to the ways and means to live a life. It claims that recession is a direct fallout of the inability of the working class to purchase the full products of their work and the ruling class does not consume a sizable amount of what is produced. A socialist school of thought maintains, ‘ For each according to his ability, to each according to his work,’ whereas a communist slogan says, ‘From each according to his ability, to each according to his work’. Both are a derivation of the Marxist way of life.
Here is the meaning of “Communism:”
A scheme of equalizing the social conditions of life; specifically, a scheme which contemplates the abolition of inequalities in the possession of property, as by distributing all wealth equally to all, or by holding all wealth in common for the equal use and advantage of all.
Here is the meaning of “Socialism”
Socialism refers to the various theories of economic organization advocating public or direct worker ownership and administration of the means of production and allocation of resources, and a society characterized by equal access to resources for all individuals with a method of compensation based on the amount of labor expended.[1][2][3]
Most socialists share the view that capitalism unfairly concentrates power and wealth among a small segment of society that controls capital and derives its wealth through exploitation, creates an unequal society, and does not provide equal opportunities for everyone to maximise their potential[4] and does not utilise technology and resources to their maximum potential nor in the interests of the public.[5]
These ideas were well meaning and well intentioned but were misused by various leaders and dictators throughout history to take advantage of people. When you read these definitions in the purest form, you know it doesn’t sound so God awful now does it. But their true meanings as I stated above, were bastardized and used improperly and the true meaning was lost.
Some of what “Marxism” advocates sounds a bit like what our UNIONS and these TEABAGGERS advocate don’t you think??
I do agree with some of their rhetoric. I do think Obama should have given taxpayers a tax break instead of all these Government “incentives” we never see. And this cars for clunkers WAS A CLUNK in my opinion. I just don’t like the GOP because you see what happened over the past eight years with Dumbo the elephant.
It was just George W. that was dumb. His father was SMART. And I did LIKE Ronald Reagan. SO THERE !! I don’t really mind these people-I just get passionate and I think they need to hear about it once in a while. I notice though they did tone down their “Nazi” and “Communist” and “Marxist” rhetoric. I think Sarah Palin is causing these people to come to their senses. Sarah Palin is NOT DUMB AT ALL. When she speaks her own mind-I think she makes a lot of sense SOMETIMES!!
And SOMETIMES GOVERNMENT RUN AGENCIES DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE: DO YOU THINK THIS SHOULD BE IGNORED AND GOVERNMENT SHOULD HAVE STAYED OUT OF THIS ISSUE?

Anyway-I HOPE TO BE MAKING AN APPEARANCE ON TUESDAY AT THE TOWN COUNCIL MEETING. AND YOU ALL KNOW WHAT FOR!!
GOODBYE FOR NOW
