FROM MY FRIEND “TIMIDSOULSOLESUPPORT”
(He’s the sole support of his family and can’t afford controversy.)
*****begin quote*****
I don’t want to be this political on my Blog, but you might have use for it.
Check out this quote:
“Government programs also breed highly destructive dependence. How destructive? Well, I once took care of an alcoholic patient who bragged that his government disability checks allowed him to purchase better quality whiskey than he could afford to buy when he wasn’t considered disabled because of his alcoholism. The government thus subsidized his alcoholism.”

You can credit me anonymously. Maybe you can give me a cool pseudonym too like your buddy Luddite
*****end quote*****
Now don’t pick on my friend LUDDITE, it’s hard work staying so far behind the technology curve while earning his daily bread as a consultant on “technology project management”. He reviews projects and tells them to hang back from the ‘bleeding edge’. :-)
And when did I become the annointer of ‘kool knickknames’?
Now I’m the dumping ground for all controversy?
Oh well, it’s a well touted ‘fact’ that, in the First American Revolution, only that less than a third favored the Brits, less than a third favored the rebels, and solid third wanted to just be left alone. Fewer than 10% actually fought.
So I guess when the Third American Revolution comes, I’ll have to do the shoot for both of them — LUDDITE and TIMIDSOULSOLESUPPORT. And the seven others too timid to take on the gangs in gooferment.
What was that Churchill quote?
“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.” —Winston Churchill
Yes, “Third”. The War of Northern Aggression was the Second. The right of the people to peacefully withdraw was defeated on the field of battle. And, that was the end of the American Experiment. The end of the Republic. It just spun along like a out of control comet. Until it winds us up here.
Where the gooferment allows drunks to buy a better brand of booze. And that’s a controversial idea.
Figure out all your taxes, if you can, fellow slaves, so you’ll know just how much a slave you are. It feels like 100% to me.
Wonder if that’s too controversial?
