POLITICIANS - and deadbeats


I’m sure that this article will not set well with some but the more I think about what is happening in this country the more I've had it with some of people in this country, and even more so with the politicians who enable them and who know better, but whose desire, lust and thirst for power surpasses and go beyond anything comparable to common decency. It's time for a reality check, for the truth and here it is: this is one American whose sick and tired of subsidizing (support financially by my tax dollars) people who are too  lazy to take care of themselves, and who expect and wait for other people to pick up the tab. People who would not work in a pie shop eating pies. Spare me excuses. I don't want to hear about "social justice," "victimization," discrimination,” or " unfair treatment " when they are nothing more than excuses that allow some people to live in this country on the back of working Americans while contributing practically nothing towards their own upkeep. There's a huge difference between the truly helpless and the truly lazy deadbeats, and I've had it with the politicians who make little or no distinction between the two groups. I don't care what these political prostitutes, who sell their selves, to get elected say or tell you, there's no such thing as "free" anything. There is nothing that is on the house and the fact that some think there is or  don't give a darn because they are not paying for it, is a demonstration and verification to both their deceit and their lack of honesty. But then the deadbeats already know that and they are OK with it, as long as the government program or policy keeps delivering the goods and the check. The elected officials are okay with it as long as they get the deadbeats votes. This is not helping the people who truly need help. That is giving the ones that truly need help less.  Now we have a government who wants to spread the wealth around. These means, in no uncertain terms, that more will be put on the backs of working Americans to dole out for people who can make a buck or two their own selves but would rather have it handed over to them.
There was a time in this country when most people were ashamed to go on the dole and ask for any kind of government help, except as a last resort. There was also a time when most people accepted responsibility and blame for their own behavior, or felt bad doing something wrong when they knew it was wrong. But that was before secular "progressives" made it fashionable to believe religion-based moral codes were " out-of-date, not for today'" and that everyone was entitled to modify and custom fit their morality, their principles, their ethics and decency in accordance with "personal preferences." Where has the integrity, honor, and veracity of some people gone? Once such moral uncertainty gathered momentum, the legal profession and the therapeutic community were more than willing to jump on the bandwagon. For the former, "right and wrong" became "legal and illegal." For the latter, "well and unwell." Shame? Dead as the proverbial doornail. Its replacement? Self-rationalization and excuse-making.

Who do these people think they are kidding? Not the American people who bust their butts every day to make ends meet. Not the people who try to do the right thing, just because it's right. A lot of them have been beaten into submission by our political class and some of our elected officials  for whom nothing is more important than making decent people feel bad for not being "compassionate" enough. Well no more. I'm calling them out. All these politicians know the road to permanent and unending power is paved by buying the dead beats off. They are nothing more than blood-suckers, and it's long past time someone told them so. What good are they really doing our Country? I’m afraid more harm than good!

All the decent working Americans who have been carrying the deadbeats for decades has had enough. Their self-righteous indignation and resentment is wearing exceedingly thin, and you may have noticed that the decent, law-abiding, hard-working Americans that are still the majority of people in this country are beginning to wake up. These are the very same folks who bend over backwards, time and time again, to help people in need and will still help the people who are, truly, in need but you deadbeats will have to do the same as all the rest of us do – WORK!
