The poor wasted Gov't Money? How shocking... NOT

If you've been keeping tabs, it seems the katrina "victims" (or as I like to call them, people who didn't get out of the way even though they had a few days advance warning) have been squandering the FEMA money that WE were forced to pay for. There are accounts of the "victims" spending the emergency money on strippers, traffic tickets, and other such "vital" needs. You have a whole town full of welfare people, who blame everyone else for their lives, and think they are entitled to other peoples' money, and when they are given even more money they blow it, and some people are surprised.

It's politically incorrect to say that people are poor because of their own choices, but it's true. Sure people can fall on hard times and be broke, but it's what you do with it afterwards that makes the difference between the poor and everyone else. I've been broke, and I stopped spending money on things I didn't need, and tried to save money when I could. And when it got asked for help from family, which I paid back when I got on my feet again. The poor are just those who give up and then expect everyone else to take care of them.

The welfare people believe they are entitled to everyone else's money. This is in part because they were programmed to believe this by our politicians. In fact, all government handouts are called entitlements. It's the politicians way of making their consitiuents believe they are owed the money from the evil oppressors (ie. people that work and take care of themselves). Every election you hear both ends of the ruling political party (yes I said one party, not two. Dem's and Rep's are just ends of the same party), accuse the other one of taking money away from the "deserving" poor. If you ever listen to what they are really saying, and reword into everyday language, they are realy saying, "You all are too stupid to take care of yourselves. Trust in me to take the smart people's money away form them and use it to take care of you, like my own babies."

So what do we have to show for this election strategy? A society where a majority of its citizens believe that earning your own money is bad, and that it's the federal government's role to take care of every need of every person.

200 years goes by so fast, doesn't it? Read my earlier posts if you don't know what I'm referring to. It's time to start the whole damn thing over again. Check out the Freestate Project if you want a possible exit strategy.
