Freeloaders

Freeloaders are an abomination upon society, and yet, they are part and parcel of the Entitlement generation created by creeping socialism.
They are everywhere you turn and even in your car on the way to YOUR JOB, where you, hypothetically, bust your butt trying to EARN your daily bread.
They permeate society, government, industry, the courts.
A true Libertarian society would, at least, decimate their ranks to those who are actually in need and direct them to private charities and other traditional source of assistance.
Instead of running the Poor, Poor, Pitiful Me scam on government agencies and in the streets of America taking honestly given charity away from those who are in need.
Plus, they create and foster greater cynicism on the part of the general public when said public learns the depths of their laziness, duplicity and greed.
Screw 'em all. Give to a decent charity, like the Salvation Army or the Red Cross, who have the highest ratio of money to the public and smallest of money to administration of said charities.

INNOCENTS BETRAYED -- Just say NO to gun control

CranioColonic Displacement

There are a couple of guys that hang out at the corner of Capitol Park in Sacramento who are obviously hippies or Viet Vets. (Right age bracket anyway) And they are exercising their right of free speech with signs aimed at traffic.
Not the usual "Hi, I'm homeless and/or lazy so give me money" signs. Political opinion signs.
Good for them. Use that First Amendment. Express yourself.
But, OMG!
These use the swastika under a list of conservative organizations or persons. i.e. Palin, Tea Party, the list goes on.
I understand how the ill informed and undereducated might hold low opinions of those groups or persons, but to equate them with Nazis.
That is far beyond the pale.
It also negates the import of any other messages these individuals might wish to convey to the average motoring public in downtown Sacramento.
Such as "end the war", "bring our boys home". which I am in agreement with, although for different reasons and thought processes.
These two gentlemen are long haired, not a bad thing by itself, overweight, over 50, and expressing irrational opinions. Altogether not a combination guaranteed to engender sympathy or agreement in the few moments the average driver has to scan the signs full of opinions and slanders directed at the conservative right.
Anyway, sometimes, ya just gotta wonder. Rx

Hayek, economist and oracle

F. Hayek, is one of the greatest minds in Economics.
His "The Road to Serfdom" is an illustration of the state of the world and America today.
We, the citizens, have become serfs.
We have little or no choice about the rules, regulations and laws that are enacted to rule our daily lives.
We have absolutely no choice or voice about the extreme taxation that burdens us virtually into oblivion.
We are at the mercy of thugs, crooks, police and, even worse, politicians.
Politicians are the visible portions of the new aristocracy that runs the country to suit themselves. Recent developments on the national front illustrate this beautifully.
Thugs and crooks exist in a kind of limbo where they emerge to take from us, similar to politicians, our possessions, our money, our very lives and they return to that space where they hide to emerge at their leisure.
Our courts are riddled with "pragmatists" and "realists" who would rather make a deal than actually go to court for a conviction. Plea bargaining is the modern way.
Meanwhile our prisons are costing millions in tax dollars to keep drug USERS in prison. While the real criminals like dealers, importers and the like who can afford attorneys walk around scot free.
The thugs and crooks who actually end up doing time, see it as a vacation with three hots and a cot. And they spend their time learning the next way to steal from you.
The University of San Quentin, where they teach Burglary 101, Identity Theft for Fun and Profit, Kidnapping Made Easy, and, of course, Torture for Enemies and Victims.
Read history. Man has been here before, and apparently will be here again in the overall scheme of things.
But, we are concerned with RIGHT NOW.
We just have to survive this cycle as a nation and a people. We can do it.
