THE REAL PROBLEM WITH OUR MONETARY SYSTEM IN STRAIGHT TERMS.

The folks who are getting free stuff,

Don't like the folks who are PAYING for the free stuff,

Because the folks who are PAYING for the free stuff,

Can no longer afford to pay for BOTH the free stuff and their own stuff.

And, the folks who are paying for the free stuff want the free stuff to stop.

While the folks who are getting the free stuff,

want even MORE free stuff on top of the free stuff they're already getting!


Now, the people who are forcing the people who PAY for the free stuff,

have told the people who are RECEIVING the free stuff,

that the people who are PAYING for the free stuff,

are being mean, prejudiced, and racist!


So, the people who are GETTING the free stuff,

have been convinced that they need to HATE the people who are PAYING for the

free stuff by the same people who are forcing the people who are PAYING for the free

stuff and GIVING them the free stuff in the first place.

SO NOW... you know the straight stuff!

The entitlement class is upset because they've been caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

Hum ... the biggest problem we have with the free stuff is the 'free' stuff that costs us the most money - Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

100% of the problems we have with Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, beyond that fact that socialist programs don't work, were CAUSED by our useless government. Years of waste, fraud, abuse and mismanagement have brought us to this point. Reelecting the same bums next Nov will NOT do ANYTHING to start fixing the problems.

Looking for quick easy fixes won't do it either. These problems are decades in the making and the fixes will likely take as long or longer. Programs will need "faded" out over several years. We do need to get started. The ONLY way to insure that happens is to get rid of the bums in office now. They have PROVEN that they have NO intention of solving the problems, only adding to them.

The most succinct explanation of our current problems was given by Lady Margaret Thatcher about 3 decades ago even she said, "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."

That's what's happened.

Well than I think you will or should agree with the following statement; there is no difference between a liberal and conservative in our government when it comes to political pandering.

The quick fix is to end the programs but because too many will cry about "I deserve", there will be a time when there won't be any money and those who thought up the ponzi scheme in the first place knew that time will happen. Maybe the fix is to let it fall apart or better yet end the idea that anyone deserves anything and work on the idea that those who need should and those who don't need shouldn't get base not on income but on assets.
