good article
Hard hitting and it will be totally ignored by the Libs and their followers.
And that’s a pity, Until it actually crashes around ALL of our ears their is still a chance, slim though it may be, of stopping it from happening and reversing course.
Quote
“Your biggest problem is you. Now, a lot of people resent this truth – they say it’s “blaming the victim.” But most of the time, the purported “victim” is to blame. Did you drop out of school? Choose to use drugs? Have a couple kids with a couple losers? See, if so, you aren’t a victim of circumstance. A victim of circumstance is someone struck by lightning or attacked by a gang of thugs in a Democrat-run city. You’re a recipient of consequences.
It’s not a tragedy when bad things happen to people who make bad choices. It’s a tragedy when we lie to them by validating their failures and then try to ameliorate those consequences by taking money from people who did all the right things.”
BINGO!
Every time I think of this issue I think of the story of the grasshopper and the ant. And tack on a new ending where the government shows up and takes half the ants food and gives it to the grasshopper.
I doubt I'll read anything better this week or even this month than this excellent, common sense filled work by Kurt Schlichter.
I wanted to quote a few stand out lines, but gave up when I realized I end up re-posting it entirely. It's that good.
ping for later
Nice article, but again, the liberals won’t listen and the rest of already know it.
Most of the liberals I know are wealthy....Some very wealthy.
Mostly inheritance .
Most of the conservatives I know are Poor....some very poor.
Mostly child support,DUI or anger management.
The people who are doing the real work...the honest work...these days are being crapped on by both sides equally.
And it will be ugly and bloody.
If blacks living on the South Side of Chicago ever wonder why things don't get better - after all their years of voting for democrats they can read the above...
This is the only flaw in the article. Liberalism is a smart cancer. Once it grows enough to start killing off its host, it hibernates for a while until the host can support it again. Then it just flares up again.
It'll always be here. We cannot kill it off.
"It’s not a tragedy when bad things happen to people who make bad choices. "
I like it.
Outstanding.
Excellent article Kaslin.
I don’t know the author but this is the crux of issues today. These will make or break the country.
These are the people who vote for a living. Can you imagine if all the brood mamas were taken off the voting rolls.
bkmk
Thanks for this reality check style article.

In y’alls spare time, ponder this skeptical speculation by yours truly:
The Obama and others on the Left’s opposition to efficient fracturing of Oil and Gas reservoirs is just another diversionary smokescreen to hide their main goal of Nationalizing the US Oil and Gas Industry.
As Obamacare continues to fail and drain more and more money out of the already bankrupt US Treasury, another income stream will have to be diverted from the private sector to the insatiable vote-buying greed of “both” Federal political parties.
I suspect that Obama is withholding approval of the XL Pipeline until the opportune time when Obama will be “forced to save” the US Oil and Gas Industry by Nationalizing all US Oil & Gas pipelines, and then use taxpayer dollars to built the XL Pipeline to Chicago with all Union Labor, and Democrat Contractors.
Obama would then have a secure income stream to pay for much of Obamacare, or any replacement insurance “tax” derivatives as might be proposed in the future by the doormat RINOs or Mrs. Bill Clinton.
Ouch. That's gonna leave a mark.
LOL. Perfect. Gotta remember that one.
Outstanding.
