++ Ponder these
++ Ponder these I got this from a friend via email a while ago and thought it was worth reposting. There was a bit more to it, however I edited some of the political commentary. There is no intent towards any hate, just observations or food for thought. In your opinion are these accurate? Do you have any other observations? (Please keep them civil) Here are six Conundrums of the United States of America : 1. America is capitalist and greedy - yet half of the population is subsidized. 2. Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims. 3. They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the government. 4. Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep getting poorer. 5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about. 6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about - yet they want America to be more like those other countries. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// These three, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our current government and cultural environment: 1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. 2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money. But we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of money ! What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but the second didn't. 3. Why are we cutting benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our military and cutting our army to a level lower than before WWII, but we are not stopping the payments or benefits to illegal aliens. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "If you do not take an interest in the affairs of your government, then you are doomed to live under the rule of fools." – Plato |
