Here are six Conundrums in the United States of America:
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.
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...
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.
Last but not least, We are 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.
