Progressive socialism's Conundrum : Life Without Responsibility Is Okay

In summation, this below is who we are and what we are about, have become? I hope not, but for many who live in a dream land where everything is low hanging fruit, and the trees that produce the dreams will keep growing tall and strong over night so the good times will never end, is just that, a dream, an ideology for failure.

But we that have to live in the real world know dreams of a life that consists only of people that are willing to work hard, take responsibility for their own survival so others do not have to is just that, a dream that fades and ends in the light of reality. Yet millions wait in line for the promised 'hope and change' that will ensure their life without responsibility. The reality of this situation is the line never grows shorter.

The author of this is unknown, but no matter who makes the case, common sense and logic must rule the day if we are to survive and prosper. 

CONUNDRUM
Makes good sense to everyone except those who have their heads in the sand.

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.

Think about it!

And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the 21st Century. Makes you wonder who is doing the math. 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....?
