something to think about

Conundrum

"A gun is like a parachute. If you
need one, and don't have one, you'll probably never need one
again."

The definition of the word Conundrum is:
something that is puzzling or confusing.

Here are six Conundrums of socialism 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.

These three, short sentences tell you a
lot about the direction of our current government and cultural
environment:

1.
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…

2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to
run out of money. But 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... and Last but not least:

3. Why are we 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.

Am I the only one missing
something?

"If you do not take an interest in the affairs of your government,
then you are doomed to live under the rule of fools." –
Plato

Plato was an Athenian Philosopher, he
was born in Greece in 427 BC and died 347 BC, a long time ago, yet
some of his wisdom continues to reverberate.
