Happy Earth Day (Lenin's Birthday); Happy Good Friday

Yes, today is Earth Day, founded by Wisconsin politician, and dyed in the wool Socialist Liberal, Gaylord Nelson. Do you think that this day, the birthday of Vladimir Lenin, was coincidence? I don't. Liberals love Lenin, just like they love Stalin and Chairman Mao. It's about revolution. It's about tearing down the Capitalist system that they hate. Why do they hate the Capitalist system? Because under Capitalism, they will have to work hard if they are going to become successful, and there are no guarantees regardless. Educated Liberals love Socialism, because they are fully aware that under any of the forms of Socialism, even as oppressive and tyrannical as the Communist Socialist countries are, those with the right credentials and connections live well. Even at the low end of "living well," they live better than any of the Proletariat that they claim to represent and support.

The whole environmental thing in a nutshell, is nothing but bullshit. It's about power over the little people, and denying the little people energy, so there is more for Liberals. The next time you see some sanctimonious Lefty preening around in their Prius, look at the size of their home. That will tell you how much energy they actually use. I don't give a shit if it's
Green Energy. Energy is energy. Here's a nice task for all Conservatives today. Don't be nice when confronting a Liberal who's wearing their concern for the environment on their sleeves, and at the same time, wallowing in their self-importance. Mock them. Make them go ballistic. Let them know that you see through their scam, and that you are not going to ignore their self-righteousness any longer. Send them to their therapists en masse. In fact, try a trick that I've done on occasion, which causes them almost to turn violent. Hand them a penny, and when they ask what it is for, tell them that it is a donation toward their next therapy appointment. Then sit back and watch the fireworks. It's fun.

Now for a solemn note. Today is Good Friday. Whether you are Christian or not, use today as a day of personal reflection. See how you can make yourself a better person. Think about what you can do, no matter how small it is, to make this world a better place. I can hear some of you now: "Yes, but didn't you say 'Mock them. Make them go ballistic. Let them know that you see through their scam, and that you are not going to ignore their self-righteousness any longer. Send them to their therapists en masse.'?" Yes I did. The faster we make Liberals grow up and become adults,rather than adult teenagers, the better we can make this world for all. It's time for some tough love. ˚

Fairness? Yea, Right

The cat is out of the bag. Talking recently with a couple of rabid Obama supporters, infected with the mutation of the disease from Bush Derangement Syndrome to Obama Adoration Syndrome, I comprehend now exactly what the Left means when they talk about fairness. It’s not about fairness. It’s about redistribution, with a vast majority of the redistribution going to benefit the standard of living of those with a college education who are not large income recipients. That would include those in the education industry and those working for non-profits and foundations.

People that work in these industries tend to be people that don’t want to deal with the cut throat competition and back stabbing, and 12 hour work days that you must submit to, in order to climb successfully the corporate ladder. Being in love with themselves however, they feel that because they have a college education, many have post-graduate degrees, that they should be compensated accordingly, no matter what choices they made careerwise. It burns them up to no end when they see a high school drop out who owns two or three McDonald’s franchises, making several million dollars per year, when they have a PhD and only make $75,000 per year. In their minds, that is what’s wrong with the Capitalist system. It rewards those that take risks and are willing to put in the necessary hours. They are not. In their minds, the time they spent in school is sufficient to guarantee them a nice cushy, self-fulfilling, upper middle class lifestyle with a minimal amount of work. This is why they push for a command and control economy. Those with the right education credentials will be compensated accordingly, and those without will be put in, and kept in their place where they belong.

Here's an example. You have a college degreed lower end professional in Montgomery County, Maryland, living in a rental unit or a condo, because they can’t afford a single family home, while over in Prince George’s County, Maryland, you have an uneducated redneck tradesman owning his own single family home. This burns Liberals up to no end. That’s not fair. Now to add fuel to the fire, that redneck owns a van and a pickup truck, both of which Liberals hate. The Left can not stand anything that identifies with the working class...especially the WHITE working class.Things need to change, and Obama is the one that is going to make that happen. There will be redistribution of income from the successful uneducated to the unsuccessful educated, with a crumb thrown to the ghetto minorities, who were the pawns on the Left’s chessboard, and were the grease on the skids that helped elect our first true Anti-American, global citizen, Marxist president.

The other part of the jealousy factor is those at the lower end of the professional class are envious of those at the high end. Those at the top of government employment making an average of $150,000 per year or more. Then you have your extended government. You have those with the law degrees that practice regulatory law, those that work in the lobbying "industry," and all others that benefit directly, or handsomely indirectly in the "rackets" that benefit from the expansion of government and the ensuing contracts. It’s extremely profitable to be a Liberal Democrat as long as the government keeps expanding. So you have a racket that benefits from redistribution: the minority poor, the degreed lower middle class in the information and education rackets, public sector union paper pushers, and those with professional credentials that are connected to policy and contracts with government.

Here’s the problem for these folks. The little people are now awake, and they are not going to buy it. The little people like myself see through the smoke. We are not going to let ourselves be led into slavery on the Left’s plantation. The educated Left knows this, and they are scared to death. They need to be. We’ve had enough. We are sick of the rhetoric. We are sick of the condescension. We are sick of the perceived victim hood of the therapy attending left, when all they have to do is grow up. We are sick and tired of paying for programs that have accomplished little and continue to escalate in cost. Payback time is coming. It’s going to be fun to watch. I can’t wait.

Will The Government Shut Down On Friday?

I guess that is the big question. Of course both sides are digging in their heels...the Republicans with their usual facts and figures, and the Democrats with their usual shrill rhetoric about Grandma dying of starvation and little children dying of every imaginable ill, because the mean Conservatives want to cut the social services budget and give it to the military and the oil companies. Of course any idiot can go online to the congressional budget office and see where the facts are. Right now defense spending is about 20% of GDP, foreign aid is less than 1%, and guess what hippies? Social Services spending is almost 50% of the federal budget. You want us to spend more on social services? You mean you want to make it easier for lazy people to get on the public dole. Grandma and Grandpa are going to be taken care of. Don't worry. They are not going to be eating Alpo. Let's do something different here. Let's means test welfare benefits and Social Security. They are running out of money. Why should a wealthy retired couple making $100,000 per year in retirement income need Social Security. Yes, I know, they paid into it, and are entitled to it. I pay taxes that fund Welfare payments, but I'm not eligible to collect Welfare. I make too much money.

Speaking of Welfare, let's means test that too, and make it contingent on mandatory job training, job search, mandatory drug, alcohol, and nicotine testing, and having no social life. You stay home and take care of your kids, and you don't date. You learn to follow the rules and become productive.

Reform welfare and other social services with means testing and a requirement for personal responsibility. De-fund NPR and PBS. It's not that their funding is that large, but it's a symbolic gesture directed at the sanctimonious upper middle class, over educated Elites, who view themselves as our betters. You're not. We are not going to bow to you. Keep pushing us, and we'll shove it in your left ear, and you know which left ear I'm referring to. It's time for Middle America to stand up on its hind legs and get mean and nasty. The time is long over due.
