Why Is It the People "Buy the Ranch" but Not the Insurance Policy????

[Starpass]

How come the vastly ignornant American public can be sucked with basically no effort into war, the staggering national debt brought about by that war, money give-away-wealth-shifting tax breaks for the rich which leaves them holding the bag for that national debt, etc.?? BUT, the toothless, the unwashed, the family living paycheck to paycheck, those with no savings, those with plastic debt up the waazoo, unemployed thanks to Bush, unable to college educate their children, no insurance (or soaring contributions at work towards insurance),....in a word, middle class and less than middle class Americans....go insane, apeshit, nutso if any stinkin' liberal suggests shoring up programs that help these people or developing others that are needed to save their useless hides???? War---hell, spend a gazzillion 'cause we are Amurekans. Helping ourselves and our own families-----too big a price. You tell me how to fight this gut pathetic mentality and I'll tell you how to deliver this country to the Democrats. Maybe we should let them rot and try another approach........

1. There is nothing "macho" about helping their fellow man, unless of course,

they have bombed the crap out of them first.

2. I have no idea

muy first reaction is to blame religion. LOL

and my second reaction is to tell everyone I know to buy property and to run their own lives in spite of everything they have been taught.
