Welcome to Retired Public Safety.com

Home      About me
This website was created in April 2009 by one man in an attempt to make a mature and professional place for information and information exchange between Public Safety workers via a moderated message forum. This site never caught on, and it was converted into an outlet and a rallying point for information I have gained and am gaining in my fight to eliminate the Early Retirement Penalty from the IRS tax code, at least for public safety retirees if not all citizens. This is one brick in the wall of our excessive tax code that needs to be replaced with a reasonable and Constitutional tax system ASAP. Until July 2011, I was a supporter of the FairTax. However, after reading this paper, I have changed my point of view on the matter and no longer support the FairTax for a number of reasons. One man or woman by themselves can't get anything done, likewise many men and women one at a time doing nothing ends up with the same result. It has since morphed into a political commentary site.
 
After several decades of being a Republican in 2008 I joined the Constitution Party due to the degeneration of the Republican Party as evidenced by the 2008 election. After a couple of years there and volunteering in an independent congressional campaign, I found that this country is irretrievably entrenched in the two party system. Regardless of how great your ideas and principles are, you are not treated the same as an independent candidate and your message simply will not get out. I subsequently rejoined the Republican Party to try & affect a return to their core values from within. Learn more about the Republican party below:
 

As a critical and logical thinker, I don't favor anyone over another unless they can consistently articulate why I should do so. You'll see this site is equally critical of Republicans as it is Democrats if they fail to follow our rule of law known as our Constitution, or act in a hypocritical or inconsistent manner.
 
Finally, I give thanks to my wonderful wife of several decades, my parents, who proved to me they were indeed "The Greatest Generation", and to God through his Son Jesus Christ for my salvation, the protection, and blessings he has given me in the years of my life as well as the ultimate retirement into eternal life.
