About 30 men, givertake a few, all dressed identically. White pants with a blue stripe. White shirt with DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS on the back.

| Not quite that easy |
I pointed this out. I also asked them who is really at fault for their being in the state prison.
Yeah. I went there. I do not pull my punches where I go to the state prison to preach. I am not dealing with men who are up for a Citizen of the Year award in their respective communities.
Harsh? Maybe. Too harsh? If so, what are you doing for those men behind bars?
Thought so.
So lemme ask you the same thing. Who is really at fault? Pick something. Anything.

Here's one. http://ideas.time.com/2011/10/31/judges-are-for-sale-and-special-interests-are-buying/
I ask you: Who put these judges in office?
Big money did not put such people in office. Voters put such people in office.
Who'd you vote for and why?
If you complain that only candidates who get huge contributions from major corporations get elected to office, I ask again: Who did you vote for?
Saying "well, I don't know anything about the other candidates" is not even a cop out. It would have to improve to be a cop out. If you are going to say you don't know anything about the other candidates, I'm not going to call you ignorant.
Ignorance is curable. Stupdity ain't.

What about the Occupy Whatever movement? The only central complaint I can see they had, and I very well could be wrong, is that corporations make too much money.
How do corporations make money? Where does that money come from? Where do you shop and what products do you buy?
Better question: Of all the stuff you buy, what can you really and truly live without?
The real question: How much of your current situation is 100 percent attributable to the choices you have made?
If you are like most people, the real answer is: Far more than I am willing to admit to.
I have an idea for a new movement: Occupy Your Life - Take responsibility for yourself and quit blaming others.
It'll never catch on. It requires personal honesty.
Regarding the Vilify Wall Street hippie movement, the commies not only want corporations to quit making money, but also free college education, free public transportation, clean energy research, and 25 million or so make work jobs paying union wages. Doubtless they also want free love beads, free weed, free sex, and free everything else they can mooch.
ReplyDeleteSeveral of the things they are demanding are already available. For free transportation they need look no farther than the tips of their toes that carried their lazy asses to the protest to begin with. And as for clean energy, nuclear is a lot cleaner than we give it credit for being.
As for the education and jobs, Cheech, Chong, & Neil Young need to go flip a few burgers at minimum wage in order to pay for the education that will provide him a higher income the way most of us did it. I'll be damned if I am going to willingly hand over my hard earned money to put a vagrant stoner through college that he will likely only drop out of, assuming of course that he doesn't join a "Free Passing Grades For Everyone" campaign
