Free Cheese

I made a comment recently on Bushwack's blog, "American & Proud," and it got me to thinking, particularly considering the post I made just prior to this one:

Whose fault is all of this? Who shoulders the blame for America's plight? Is it all the responsibility of our politicians?

I submit: it is not.

There are others equally responsible: it is us. The People. The Electorate.

I wrote on A&P:

Is there anyone here willing to be frank enough and realistic enough about our situation?

America GAVE AWAY THE STORE.

When we stopped making OUR OWN STEEL we diminished. When we refused to drill oil ON OUR OWN SOIL and OFF OUR OWN COASTS we diminished. When we drowned and throttled and chopped off the heads of CREATIVE PEOPLE and BUSINESSES and kicked those willing to TAKE RISKS squarely in the groin with all manner of makes and models of LAWSUITS, we diminished.

When we insisted that, collectively, our lives had to be coddled, had to be perfect, untainted by dissension or challenge or (heavens forbid!) COMPETITION, we diminished.

Think about it.

Government has only given Americans what they screamed (and VOTED) for: to be fed pablum and bullshit and to be ensconced in rap, hip-hop, lies, falsehoods, “Deal Or No Deal,” backwards BB caps, the bimbo cunt of the month (Brittany, her sister, Paris, Jessica Simpson, Rosie O’Donnell, et al), “Sicko,” Bill Maher, “The Real World,” and much, much more betrayal.

We’ve KILLED generations of black familes by PAYING black women to keep fathers OUT of the equation.

We’ve created universities that yield people who PRODUCE NOTHING. We’ve MINIMIZED the LABORER, minimized the TRADE WORKER, the mechanic, the repair and service and construction workers, we’ve SOLD OUR SOULS all because we wanted NO RISKS, NO THREATS, NO COMPETITION. We’ve wanted everything minimized, Pasteurized, homogenized, dumbed-down, lower than ANY Lowest Common Denominator.

Who’s to blame? I see only one segment: those who simply want to be catered-to, who want Socialism, who want “free,” who want their “entitlements.”

The government is only providing what the Masses have told them they want: FREE CHEESE.

And MORE OF IT.
