Attorney General 'Shocked' by Visit to Southern Tel Aviv

You have to wonder about America's welfare population. Over 20 million Mexicans have managed to swim a brackish river, cross a treacherous desert, dart across a busy highway and find a job in a land where they do not speak the language and are not wanted by a large percentage of the population. Not only are they able to support themselves and save some money, but often support family back home in Mexico.
So why can't our welfare parasites find work?

Sloth.
Or they insist on living in an area where there is no work. It's tough to move. It's MUCH easier to get welfare.

Just an opinion.

In principle, I agree. But one of the few things keeping inflation down is the slave wages being paid to illegals (some are slaves BTW).
Are you ready to pay $20 a pound for hamburger?

Of course I am! I reconciled the absurdity of life when I started paying for a bottle of water. Imagine, selling water. Our water here is wonderful but still I find myself BUYING water. I am part of the absurdity. I keep forgetting! :o)

A friend of mine explained it all.

Here in West Texas I have rattlesnakes on my place, living among us. I have killed a rattlesnake on the front porch. I have killed a rattlesnake on the back porch. I have killed rattlesnakes in the barn, in the shop and on the driveway. In fact, I kill every rattlesnake I encounter.

I kill rattlesnakes because I know a rattlesnake will bite me and inject me with poison. I don’t stop to wonder why a rattlesnake will bite me. I know it will bite me because it’s a rattlesnake and that’s what rattlesnakes do. I don’t try to reason with a rattlesnake. I just kill it.
I don’t try to get to know the rattlesnake better so I can find a way to live with the rattlesnakes and convince them not to bite me. I just kill them. I don’t quiz a rattlesnake to see it I can find out where the other snakes are, because (a) it won’t tell me, and (b) I already know they live on my place. So I just kill the rattlesnake and move on to the next one.

I don’t look for ways I might be able to change the rattlesnake to a non-poisonous rat snake-—I just kill it. Oh, and on occasion, I accidentally kill a rat snake because I thought it was a rattlesnake at the time. Also, I know for every rattlesnake I kill, two more are lurking out there in the brush.

In my lifetime I will never be able to rid my place of rattlesnakes. Do I fear them? No! Do I respect what they can do to me? Yes! And because of that respect I give them the fair justice they deserve...I kill them....”
