It is crazy. And it was reported as a major humanitarian gesture that Stone Mountain did not make it’s snow this year! I had a lady yesterday tell me that she STILL saw a commercial site watering.

The thing is, if everyone cooperated, doing individual things, it would make a difference.

I see the same places EVERY morning watering their lawn and Old Milton Pkwy. And somehow, my neighbors plants are all blooming and healthy while my yard and car are brown.

This is what will happen to healthcare when it is socialized.

A finite resource which people can use without regard to any personal cost or ownership, so there’s no real personal impetus to conserve it...’civic duty’ is never as compelling as the pocketbook.
