This is from one of my newer FB friends who is a straight talker and explains things so well and I want to share this that she posted today.

I just gotta say this...
We are TRULY living in a non thinking society. I just heard a soundbite for the 6 O'clock news and I have to share it with you.

"Looks like there will be a stalemate in Washington as the Democrats refuse to cut spending and the Republicans resist a tax hike!
Why the Republicans may make it harder for us to get out of the financial crisis....coming up at 6"
...

Now you notice the first 2 sentences say:
1) the Democrats don't want to stop spending money.
2) the Republicans resist raising taxes on the citizens of America.

But the CONCLUSION that the media comes to is the statement in the 3rd sentence....Republicans are the problem, they are the reason this country will not get out of debt.

Folks all most people heard was the last sentence as the media filled their heads with what they SHOULD think !

In the REAL world, a friend is the person that wants you to KEEP your money! And an enemy takes your credit card and runs up a bill that will take you the rest of your life to pay off!

But the Liberal will walk away from the TV set saying "Those damn Republicans need to bend, they need to be more flexible."

This is basic finance...YOU CAN'T SPEND MORE THAN YOU TAKE IN and THEN take MORE because you are running out!
It's like having 10 bucks and someone takes 5 and comes back and says...
"Look I gambled the 5 I took, give me another 5, this time I promise not to spend it badly."
Normally you would tell that person to kiss your behind.

And I will NEVER understand that "stimulus crap". How can you stimulate the economy by taking money FROM me and giving me back SOME of my money? TARDS...EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM ...TARDS!

Hi Kathleen, so true but the way things have been skewed, those that have worked and earned what they have, are now the villains instead of vice versus. With the help of the MSM and this administration promoting it, class warfare is at it's worse and getting even worse all the time. There are too many sitting on their lazy behinds with their hand out and expecting more and more and unfortunately a lot of those not able to work begrudge those who have mangaged to get ahead and keep expecting more. Little do they realize that eventually the well is going to run dry and then what are they going to do?

Hi Mary Evelyn,

It also goes against the Commandment that states "Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's belongings"...not only shouldn't we covet what other people have, the details of that are to also help our neighbors maintain what they already have, and not to cause them loss by any means.

Hi Kathleen, again I could not agree with you more in what you say. The sad reality though is there are more and more of the takers. When someone wants something bad enough they'll find a way to achieve it.

That's exactly what the conservative side means by a "Godless society"...what happened to "Give a man a fish and he has fish for a day. Teach a man to fish and he has fish for a lifetime"...?

Everyone has unique skills, each person is capable of doing something to earn money in a good way.

Why aren't all our libraries full of people every day? If everyone was at least educating themselves for free, that would be a start.

Even watching how to do things on Youtube is a learning experience. Everyone is capable of learning new things, doing things to uplift themselves, and not depend upon the work of others.

We are all brothers & sisters on this earth, and supposed to take care of each other, but when people are capable, they should do for themselves, and remember that they could be causing a burden to the human brothers & sisters that they don't need to depend upon every day to provide them with things they could provide for themselves.

People need to draw the line between needing help and taking advantage. Those who are working are not supposed to provide an entire lifetime of ease to people who are capable but not reaching for their own potential.

Do any of the receivers ever stop and wonder if they're buying into the decades-old subliminal messaging..."You're too lazy, stupid, unconfident, incapable, to do for yourself?"...and WAKE UP and say they're NOT those things, and start learning, trying, doing, earning, and feel like they truly ARE in charge of their own lives and futures? They're being held back from feeling great, and they don't realize it.
