As do I, yours.
You may agree with me on this or not, but I think a great deal of what's been recently proffered has reflected the sad political realitys of that lost marshmallow class out there. Does anyone NOT believe Medicare ,and Social Security for that matter, are major MIDDLE CLASS entitlement programs , shilled all these years to desensitize the spirit. I am of the opinion tha ttrue conservative ideas are indeed the best course.When they get enacted ,they work .The hardest part is to sell them, because they are not easy to do,thought and responsibility are required. Leftism is easy, much easier than effort.
Any thoughts,Ches?
As a father of two men now in their mid-twenties, I know just how hard selling responsibility is. (Now we're doomed!) The late teen years were particularly difficult. They couldn't find jobs that were like video games and even though they had the benefit of two conservative parents, their perspective was bent through the prism of the social establishments. I have cringed more than once when my son has stated something to the effect that "if I'm going to pay this much in tax I sure as heck expect to get something for it." The desensitization you refer to, coupled with the demoralization of looking at a puny take home check only encourages them to huddle closer to the trough. I can only hope that in this case, that as conservative parents we can provide them with an alternative viewpoint. Ultimately the decision is theirs. This monster called socialism is swallowing our society and turning our children into future marshmallows.
