sum it up

i think the biggest problem with the United States as she celebrated her 237th Birthday can be summed up with the escelator analogy.

Think about the escelator.....unless your severly handicapped or an amputee or maybe, just maybe a heart patient....you should be able to walk up a few flights of stairs without electronic assistance.....at the very least you should be able to walk along with the moving stairs.

But we are becoming a society of lazy , obese leeches....unable to do anything for ourselves....carry me...carry me.....for I am a hopeless dependent of big brother.

And so it is now accepted that a large portion of our population cannot or will not do for themselves and must be carried on the backs of others.....and so the social norm is step to the right if you wish to be a rider and allow the walkers to have access to the left lane.

But it doesn't stop there.......there are soo many demanding assistance that the right lane is getting crowded, but they are still impatient....so instead of queing up at the bottom of these electric stairs and waiting in line for a coveted spot in the right hand lane, these barnacles latch on to a spot in the left lane....thus forming a road block and preventing the self sufficient from getting to their destination in an expeditious manner......laziness and stupidity are the main causes, but don't underestimate the fact that some people simply cannot obey the laws of society...i surmise that if the police department posted signs reminding people to breathe, that a portion of our society would suffocate themselves out of force of habit.

I choose to walk 99.9 % of the time........on the rarest of occasions I ride ( usually because of knee pain) i stand in the right lane....if i am traveling with Valerie i insist that she stand in front or behind me....also in the right lane...never in the left....even it's 5:00 a.m. and there is nobody for miles.....rules are rules...follow them....we should never start a habit of NOT following the Rules....if your making a turn in your vehicle...put on your blinker,,,,,even if your the only car on the road....it's in the rules.


but we have become a culture of the hopeless......unable to do anything without support of big brother....welfare, unemployment, food stamps.....CARRY ME.....CARRY ME.......and when you become 100% deendant upon the government, how likely are you to vote out the folks that are paying your bills and putting food on your table?.....its so obvious what is happening it's scary.....just watch an escelator for 10 minutes at rush hour and you too will see.
