Proof that we are a nation of morons

And, do check the dates this began.

another little goody that most don't know about is that your check to ATT includes a bit of $ to finance the Spanish American War. Its possible they finally dropped this but I doubt it. It was included as recently as the 90s.
 
Sorry but the moron is you. As usual, gramps, you've gone off half cocked and don't know what you're talking about.

Take a look at the first comment ... the one that is factually correct in that Obama has/had nothing to do with this.

Actually, this just reiterates Gramp's point so why are you calling him a moron when you just supplied him with supporting evidence?
 
Whether the free shit be phones, food, healthcare, money, housing, or whatever else that is for personal wants and needs, it is wrong.... but with more and more people (and yes, corporations get free shit too, but they don't vote) getting free shit, they will continue to vote for those who will continue to give them free shit.. all while they and their masters keep vilifying and stealing from those who pay to provide the free shit

This is a path to ever increasing tyranny

yes, but sooner or later we're gonna run out of free shit, then what?

I don't look at people like this as "morons".

We have a couple of generations of Americans now that have been raised in broken households, without fathers, with people telling them every day that they're victims and have no chance outside of what the government gives them. They've had standards lowered so as to not hurt their feelings, they've been apologized for, they've been given medals for just showing up. They've been told that they are owed something regardless of whether they actually earned it.

All pretty much since birth.

When you're told all of that since birth, when you're raised in a family and community environment that absolutely endorses and amplifies and assumes it, you're going to believe it as much as you believe anything. It doesn't make you stupid, it makes you conditioned.

The part none of these fuckers can ever seem to figure out though is that none of this "free stuff" is actually free. By the end of the decade the interest on our debt will be a TRILLION dollars per year. :eek:
It's verging on a half trillion now. So all these vote-buying gimmes are going away. That's what "UNSUSTAINABLE" means. The checks and the free stuff just stop coming. There's not going to be any money for all these niceties when we're pulling a trillion bucks out of our asses every year.

That's why they can't see that they're being fed crumbs by the political class and treated like children.

Yeah.. because there is no possible way for us to stop giving out free shit :rolleyes:

Everyone should be paying the same rate federal income tax... but the government needs to stop giving out free shit and spending like a drunken sailor, especially in areas it is not constitutionally charged to do so... but we all know ones like you don't want to continually hear that
 
You can't deal drugs unless the government gives you a phone. Got to keep the peep happy or they will riot.

Actually no one wants to hear your ideas about the tax code. It's probably because they have no basis in reality.
