Never underestimate the stupidity of the American voter!
It’s what you get with government schools.
Just tell Americans that the Federal government will provide them with:
1. jobs
2. housing
3. food
4. education
5. healthcare
6. transportation
and they will vote for you everytime. Never mind that:
1. effective unemployment is 17%. Among African American youth it is 50% but they voted 95% for Obama in 2008
2. the number of defaulted mortgages is the highest in American history and the majority of mortgaged homes are underwater.
3. food prices are skyrocketing
4. the government spends more money on education than we have ever done and we fall far below other countries in science and math scores, our dropout rates among African Americans is tremendous and our youth know nothing about American history, civics and how our constitutional form of government works.
5. Obamacare is about to take our economy down and death panels will determine your access to heath care or whether you will just have to die.
6. Our roads and bridges are crumbling but we continue to explore outer planets and for life on Mars.
Is there any hope for us?
No.
The Third Reich destroyed Germany, and the Chocolate Reich will destroy America unless we elect a reformer in 2012.
That is assuming there is a free, fair election next November.
Just tell Americans that the Federal government will provide them with:
1. jobs
Dead end, low wage jobs dependent upon Party affiliation.
2. housing
Ugly, leaky, cold, damp 500 sq. ft. apartments for every family with shared, filthy communal bathroom and kitchen.
3. food
Bread adulterated with sawdust, moldy cabbage, rotten potatoes and 1/2 kilo of mystery meat per month, but all the rot gut vodka you can stomach.
4. education
Inculcation masquerading as education. Hard science education only available to children of the nomenkultura.
5. healthcare
Delivered by nurses aides and offering aspirin, if available and dull reusable needles to inject adulterated and possibly ineffective medications.
6. transportation
Inefficient, unreliable, uncomfortable, expensive and only available to the Party members.
Socialism provides ersatz benefits to the docile and compliant, delivered with a snarl.
