When something gets subsidized, the price goes up.

How many folks on food stamps now?

__________________________________________________________

When something is subsidized you, the taxpayer pays for it twice. Once when you buy it for yourself and once when you buy it for the food stamp recipients. Increase the demand and the price goes up again so perhaps you really pay for it three times.

When poor people survived on charity nobody begrudged giving to people in need and the needy were grateful to receive a gift. Now there is no gratitude involved, getting stuff for free is a right. Taking from one and giving it to someone undeserving, someone who didn’t earn it is wrong. It is slavery. What people don’t mention is that Communism and Socialism is simply Slavery spelled differently. Instead of the lowest being the slaves it is those who can produce the most being enslaved by those who provide nothing to society. These “ism’s” are an upside down way of life.

When we did have the evil of legal slavery in this country we at least called it what it was. When we did have legal slavery the slaves got something for their efforts. In these isms we now have the worker gets no benefits for what they supply to the people who get what they earn. At least legal slaves got housing, clothing and food for their efforts. When our taxes support others we get no benefits from that transfer of payments to others, in that way it is worse than slavery.

Upside down or not it is a way to provide “reparations” to the several generations later descendants, those people who are fortunate enough to live here now, descended from those who were slaves. I cannot understand why the MSM supports this crazy stuff. People who could be living in Africa but are fortunate enough to live here but complain, and we let the complaints slide. When ever I hear the term African American I want to scream, when did you live in Africa?

Slavery will not continue to work. The enslaved will eventually find a way to either be on the receiving end or get out of the oppression. Violence will likely be the only way out.

It is truly sad that our founding fathers didn’t understand that there would be leaders who would not be Christian who would usurp their restrictions and Constitution and become rulers instead of representatives.

A lot of people didn’t like Truman because he was (for his time) a strong president. I thought he was a strong man. A lot of people loved Ike because he was always kind but he warned us again and again about the evils of big government. I thought Ike was the greatest thing that ever happened to our country when I was a kid, he would be rolling in his grave to see what is happening now. He was very perceptive and understood the evil men who are now in our midst. Ann Rand understood it. What these people warned us of seemed impossible when they warned us, but sadly, it is here.
