A blog post you MUST read!


Not only do you need to read it, you need to show it to everyone from your neighbor to Michael Moore.

The first graph is so telling - it encapsulates everything that has changed from 1952 to 2010. While the economy has outgrow the era of defense spending by growing so well for decades, it is being slowly consumed by an even faster growing entitlement culture.

Get this straight: the government does not owe you a check. You are not entitled to a job and a comfortable retirement and free health care. Everything you get you have to earn. You are responsible for you. It's sad that this even needs to be said. The world will not grant you free stuff because you are an American. The Chinese are not lending America money because they want to keep you in luxury for a few more years. They are charging you interest. You have to earn for yourself. There is no free education. There is no free lunch. Those things so many think of as free are just not. The bills are going to come due.

This all has to change. Wisconsin teachers, are you listening? No?  I didn't think so.  Keep whistling past the graveyard.
