Are we too heavily influenced by those for whom there is no limit on their financial lust, and who seek the weak government
described as the pre-condition for mistaken honor and violence against others. Has our nation been hijacked by the neurotic
rich, who can now use money to maintain their influence and who hate and fear unfortunate or those who abuse government support. A
recent letter, below, must have been cut off....the rest of it surely must have expressed similar dismay at the millionaires
in congress who maintain agriculture tax supported subsidies for themselves and others like them, and who maintain advantages
for those who financially support them. The letter also betrays favoring of 'being in charge'
as preferable to trying to make the structure invented by the founding Fathers work in modern times, and work for the people.....
The person forwarding the letter likes the last thing the best - interesting, given the conflicts
of interest currently widespread in our congress - voting on subsidies one receives, legalizing insider trading for congressmen,
etc. Why are 44% of our 'representatives' millionaires? Who are they representing? Why do they accept
(lifetime) health care they do not want for others?

The Letter: WRITTEN BY A 21 YEAR OLD FEMALE Wow, this girl has a great plan! Love the last
thing she would do the best.
This was written by a 21 yr old female who gets it. It's her future she's
worried about and this is how she feels about the social welfare big government state that she's being forced
to live in! These solutions are just common sense in her opinion.
This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco
, TX , Nov 18, 2011
PUT ME IN CHARGE . . .
Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone
Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese
and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.
Put me in
charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal legations. Then,
we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, or
smoke, then get a job.
Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will
maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your home" will be subject to inspections anytime and
possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.
In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government"
job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward
the "common good.."
Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of
the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning"
and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money
for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.
If we are expected to pay for other people's
mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them
for continuing to make bad choices.
AND While you are on Gov't subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that
is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting
while you are receiving a Gov't welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.
Now, if you have
the guts - PASS IT ON...I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO GET THIS BACK, IF EVERYONE SENDS IT, I WILL GET OVER 220 BACK!!! I WOULD
KNOW YOU SENT IT ON!!!
