Our futilitarian President and his minions believe the individual doesn't count, only the government should think for us. We came to these shores for a higher ideal than that, for individual freedom. Not sure that exists much anymore since we have to slave away while government takes our wages to give to others. Wealth redistribution has nothing to do with individual freedoms unless you are talking about the freedom from work...is that even a freedom at all?

Lest we forget that we sacrifice for theWon's family vacations, too.Bahama Bound.

I could try to come up with a sentence, but it doesn’t seem worth the effort.

Our Leader, a true totalitarian
Wants us to be egalitarian
Take from the makers
And give to the takers
A concept that’s flawed, futilitarian

Tioga, I'm thinking in fact that he's a Feudalitarian, seeing all those not directly under his thumb as peasants whose earnings belong to government, whose lives are forfeit per his whim.

Frustrating and futilitarian, that’s what dentistry is. I have at least 3 teeth that have had more than one root canal. I hope you get some relief.

Oh, hope they get it fixed for you! I’ve been fortunate enough to never need a root canal -(knock on wood) so far - it sounds painful!
