The way we are, is not the way we were

1. America is capitalist and greedy - yet half of the population is  subsidized.

2. Half of the population is subsidized - yet they think they are victims.

3. They think they are victims - yet their representatives run the government.


4. Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep  getting poorer.

5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that people in  other countries only dream about.

6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about - yet they want America to be more like those other countries.

Think about it! And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in  the 21st Century.  Makes you wonder who is doing the math.


These three, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our current government and cultural environment:

1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few  lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions  of a few lunatics. Funny how that works.

And here's another one worth considering...

2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run  out of money. How come we never hear about welfare or food stamps  running out of money? What's interesting is the first group worked for their money, but the second didn't. Think about it..... and Last but not least,

3. Why are we cutting benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our  military and cutting our army to a level lower than before WWII, but  we are not stopping the payments or benefits to illegal aliens.

Am I the only one missing something?
