Democrats will be in charge until Republicans become as unhappy as the Democrats.

He said, "The surest way to contentment and peace is self-sufficiency. It is the greatest freedom you will ever have at your control. But...you must get it for yourself". To a large degree, this is possible for most of us if we will just determine for ourselves what we will and won't do, what we will and won't accept, who we will or will not do.

I know you feel strongly there should be as little interference from the state as possible, but where do you personally draw the line?? What about those who genuinely are unable to fend for themselves through eg serious mental illness such as schizophrenia, or with serious physical handicaps etc? I DO believe that there are MANY who are malingerers, leeching off the state with false claims for disablity allowance etc, but surely there are some genuine cases? Not ranting here, just genuinely interested to know your views...

Everything you say reflects my belief in what the Founding Fathers bequeathed to the people when they wrote the founding documents. Unfortunately, far too many people have been corrupted by the liberal doctrine and believe the government should provide for them cradle to grave. Every generation raised with these beliefs passes them on to their children, and here we are. The people have elected a government who they believe will give them everything they need to live their lives free of responsibility. They are truly jealous of successful people and seem to think that the rich, by whatever criteria is convenient to them, got their wealth by taking it away from everyone else. I haven't figured out why some of the very rich also believe in socialism, I can only surmise they believe it will bring them more power. Perhaps it is God complex. Life is a series of choices. Those choices determine the course of our lives and our ultimate success or failure. Except for the few who are able to game the system and those sidelined by illness or accident, each of us succeeds in direct proportion to the amount of work we do to assure our success. We all have different abilities and intelligence, but we can all be successful at something if we try.
