About The
Author
My name is Chris Fick and I was born 1959 in Kansas City,
Missouri. I'm a mixture of German, Irish, Austrian, and American Indian blood.
In 1964 my father, who was an electrical engineer that worked on
top secret military projects for major corporations, got a job at Collins Radio in Dallas,
Texas, and I have been living in the Dallas area ever since.
I graduated from NTSU and got a degree in business with a major
in finance and minor in accounting. I also took a couple graduate level classes at UTD.
I have never been married and I don't have any children. I was
engaged to a great girl for almost two years, but things did not work out. I love children
and luckily I have a bunch of great nieces and nephews from two of my sister's families
who I enjoy spending time around.
I currently live in Frisco, Texas which is about twenty mile
north of Dallas. My hobbies include computer graphics, creating music, writing computer
programs, and journalism.
I was raised in a family that regularly attended a Roman Catholic
church, but I have always had problems believing the Bible. So, as a result I now consider
myself more of an independent who likes Deism.
Deism is a religion that believes in God, but does not rely on
ancient writings or dead prophets for answers or guidance. It's more about science, common
sense, logic, and the search for answers through the acquisitions of facts and human
experiences.
I enjoy visiting with family, meeting new people, watching
C-SPAN, reading non-fiction, eating at good restaurants, watching good movies, animals,
computers, art projects, writing articles, and exposing major injustices and the people
behind them.
If I could go back in time and change the way I lived my life,
knowing what I know now, I would. I would have studied history and then law rather than
business. And rather than going into business I would have gone into politics and become a
Paul Wellstone liberal Democrat.
But, unfortunately, time only allows us to travel thought life in
one direction, forwards, and our time here on earth is limited, and God probably made it
that way for a good reason. Therefore, I will live with the choices I have made, and I
will go forward knowing that the only sure thing in life is change.
I have set my sights on making some positive progressive changes
in my life, and the lives of the people around me. I hope some of my articles can help
people realize some positive changes in their lives by forcing our government to be more
accountable and compassionate. My website, "George W. Bush Is Shameless", and by
online books, "Bush Guide 2004" and "FIGHT", are some of my ways to
fight back against the corruption in our government.
My Political Motivations
In America we have the right to speak out about an injustice when
we see one, and especially when it is our government that is committing the injustice. The
Republican Party and the Democratic Party are both guilty of betraying the American people
by stealing, lying, looting, and who knows what else, but the Republican Party has been
taken over by right-wing extremist and is currently threatening our democracy, government,
legal system, and freedoms.
George W. Bush and his co-conspirators in Congress have been
tripping over each other racing to see how fast they can rob our government and turn our
democracy in to a ruthless fascist aristocracy. By creating huge budget deficits year
after year they are pushing our government towards bankruptcy so that their rich Texas
friends can buy up our governments assets for pennies on the dollar. Those assets belong
to us! They are looting the Social Security trust fund so they can give
their rich Texas friends big tax cuts, unnecessary corporate welfare, and pork barrel
projects up the ying-yang.
The Republican Party's abundant generosity towards the rich and
their killer business sense is squeezing the middle class, bankrupting our government, and
concentrating our country's wealth into the hands fewer and fewer people, just like what
the Robber Barons were trying to do before our government stopped them in 1915 with highly
progressive taxes and government regulations.
We must now lobby our government to stop this new group of Robber
Barons before they rob and take over this country. This website is designed to educate
Americans, but it also about motivating Americans to lobby their government leaders for
progressive changes in tax laws, environmental regulations, fiscal responsibility, and
worker's rights. Otherwise, how are you going to tell your children that you lost their
democracy? And especially if your living in a cardboard box under a bridge.
In America the government works for all the people, at least in
legal theory based on constitutional law. A big government can provide big benefits and
valuable service for all it's people, if it is run by good people. Good leadership is the
key to our country's success and clearly that is where things have gone terribly wrong,
and that is why I got involved and I hope it motivates you to get involved.

"The Political Report Card", or read my other
book about the corrupt Bush administration online:
"Bush Guide 2004".
My
Future
My current plans include getting as many people as possible to
read my book "FIGHT". Nothing
is more important to me and my family then seeing the corruption cut out of our
government. Future generations of my family are counting on me, and I hope other people
will join me in this fight and together we can take back our country.
