Gratitude and the Left
American Thinker ^ | 23 Nov, 2021 | Ron Ross

Apart from lying about everything, leftists are insufferable ingrates.

Apart from lying about everything, leftists are insufferable ingrates.

Leftists spend their lives complaining. Their list of grievances is endless. They are never happy even when they get their way.

If you’re an American citizen alive in the 21st century, you’ve won the lottery. You are so much more fortunate than your forebears it’s hard to list the ways.

Someone born in America in 1900 had a life expectancy of 47 years. Someone born today can expect to live to 80, an increase of 70 percent. In 1900, 30 percent of all deaths in the United States happened to children less than five years of age. Now only 1.4 percent of deaths happen to children five or younger.

In the 19th century and earlier very few people had indoor plumbing. Think about that.

Leftists seem to run on envy, jealousy and hatred. I find it hard to be around them.

It’s like I’ve said, they don’t have even a basic an appreciation from where we came from.
What it took to get here.
Each successive generation built onto the last.
Interesting how teaching supposed race and gender inequities has become the top priority in public schools. Which there always will be inequalities for various reasons.
Otherwise,if you TAKE from one group and give to another group..all you have manage to do is deprive the first group.
And the new benefited group is not improved because they didn’t earn it for themselves.
They are still ignorant and and potentially more radicalized.

Our constitution is,or was?, why we in the US have a better life than 90% of the world.
Compared to today life in bygone centuries was hard.
Some would say we have it to easy and that is a big part of our problem.
I’m not sure I disagree.
I mean how did people in the past survive without automatic doors and auto flush toilets? Or,video games or $10 cups of fancy coffee?

The first comparison is pretty much instantly invalidated by the second. Why do people keep making such stupid statements?
