Do you think I’d get fired if I posted this in the firehouse bathroom?

21-Money isn’t wealth; if you don’t know the difference, you’ll probably never have much of either

22-One of the reasons individuals running their own affairs is preferable to bureaucracies running things is that individuals eventually die and bureaucracies live forever.

21)- You can lead a liberal to facts, but you can’t make him think.

These may be true however ‘PC’ has stopped us compiling a list of Progressive ‘truths.’

As much as we might like it to be true, we are not all born with “equality of opportunity”. It’s not government’s fault and is nothing that can be corrected by government, it’s just a fact of life.

Whatever the “average” I.Q. is, I’ve seen the number 100, a child born with an I.Q. of 90 and a child born with an I.Q. of 110 are both only 10 points from that 100 but which child is born with a better chance to succeed? Take it further to 85 & 115 and the difference becomes profound.

Just my thoughts. I am an observer, not an expert in these matters.

>> individuals are better able to determine and act in their own interest than any government agency ever could. <<

The "abolish the 17th amendment" crowd clearly disagrees with this basic conservative premise, and argues continually that state governments are far wiser and better at making choices than individual citizens are.

The liberal view is that the vast majority of Americans, particularly those living in red flyover states, are too stupid to make the “right” decisions in their lives and must have the government and liberal elites make those decisions for them. According to liberals these people cling to their guns and religion and do not have enlightened views about abortion, gay marriage, homosexuality, the environment, socialism and other liberal issues. These people must be in a society where from cradle to grave the government makes decisions for them, provides them with the “right” services and indoctrinates their children to reject such outmoded ideas as religion, American exceptionalism and The Constitution and Bill of Rights. They must be like the Julia character in Obama’s campaign web site looking to one government program after another to succeed in life.

Ditto for #14.
