ON DERELICTION...
Let me get this straight:
We pay approximately one third of our tax monies to finance wars to bail out derelicts outside of our country.
We pay one third of our budget in various transfer payments to the various derelicts inside of our country.
We then pay the remaining third of our budget to finance the interest on our national debt, which primarily goes to pay the Japanese and Chinese investors (and governments) who subsidize our profligacy. Borrowed money... (Look at the pie chart on your form 1040 instructions.)
As the mid-term election looms, I'm reminded of a great statement from comedian Dennis Miller re: his choice of presidential candidates a couple years ago. He said he'd vote for "whichever of these fuc*&$ takes the least of my money." Hear, hear, Dennis. You were/are so correct. That is the essence of elections in the USA today - the choice of the lesser of two evils who wish to squander the public's hard-earned money on any of several worthless do-gooder projects.
I had a conversation recently with one of my sisters, who has made the profession of Social Work her life's work. She works for a fairly large city in Virginia. She told me that they are so overwhelmed with work that they cannot possibly get it all done. Some work is just routinely neglected. Her boss opined that "this was normal..."
Consider the cost of our various derelictions - addictions, wars of "liberation," bailing out derelict governments and peoples worldwide, and deficit spending...
Think about it...
