For instance, if you are unemployed for a year and refuse to take an available job (like being a prostitute), the government reserves the right to slash your unemployment benefits.

Seriously?

Interestingly, this list was prepared by those non-stop advocates for libertarianism, National Geographic. They forgot “socialism,” though that lifestyle has become distressingly acceptable in this country as well.

Polygamy likely will be legalized here. Once “gay marriage”’is legal it’s pretty much over.

Gays want to normalize pedophilia.

When the average American has 10.7 sexual partners over the course of his or her lifetime, it is moot to have discussions on the ethics of polygamy.

This requirement is waived if you go into politics.

Yup and soda. However, you are encouraged to smoke pot. Try to figure that one out. Lol.

On a side note: a bit different for gays. They can have as many as a 1000 partners.
