America, The New Socialist State

I generally am an optimist when it comes to America. I think this is the best place on Earth to live. However, sometimes I can’t believe how far we have veered from our course.

I was stunned to read over the past few days of plans for our government to PAY PEOPLE’S MORTGAGES. I believe we have now hit a new low in lunacy. First, we reward corporations that took wild risks by bailing them out while corporations that acted responsibly saw nothing.

Now, we turn around and offer the same thing to people? What the heck is going on around here? What is most disgusting is that George W. Bush and John McCain are right there in the middle of it. As my brother said today, “Who needs Obama when you have the republicans?”.

So, the lesson to be learned from the last 2 months is: If you are a responsible person ( or company ), you should be expected to fund the bad decisions of other people ( or companies ) and expect absolutely nothing in return.

And just to pile it on, a Gallup poll out today reports that 58% of people think that wealth should be distributed more evenly. 58%!!!!! Here’s an idea: If you want wealth distributed more evenly, get off the couch and go to work. Good grief! We are a nation of sheep being led to the slaughter by the very full breasts of the federal government.

Everyone, grab your torches and pitchforks. Its time for an old-style revolution. Throw these scumbags out and let’s start over.
