What does my government do for me? Ever? Does it protect the borders and keep out an army of invading Mexicans? No. Does it protect me from crime? No. I get nothing of value from my government. And why? Because I am hard-working and productive. That's my mistake. That's why I get screwed.

The parasites have it figured out. The less value you offer, the more goodies the government will give to you.

And how long can that game last?

great post!

...my Boss IS disabled. He could be sitting home all day. but he’s a libertarian with principles.

...and i’m a single Father with full-custody and an underwater mortgage. ...but i’m paying for HER voucher?!?

but as you said, it can’t last forever. they can’t sustain this even if they take 100% in taxes.
...it’s going to be an interesting decade...

As long as we put up with it.
