Krazi Joe's Kraziness

Websters defines socialism as

a theory or system of social organization that advocates the vesting of the ownership and control of the means of production and distribution, of capital, land, etc., in the community as a whole.

People are all up in arms about how they all think that President Obama is going to bring the US to it’s knees with his marxist regime! OH NOES!

They scream from the rafters after hearing some agenda driven talk radio host or pundit on a tv news show about this.

I find that funny in many ways…I wonder how many of these people are married and receive tax breaks because of it? I wonder how many of these people have homes and receive tax breaks because of it. I wonder how many of these people have received education funds for college because of it, or send their kids to public schools? Or use public transportation, or receive unemployment, or receive subsidised housing or receive food stamps? Or bought a new car with the cash for clunkers program? Or get SOCIAL SECURITY or Medicare or Medicade or went to a free clinic or the ER and didn’t pay the bill…I could go on and on and on, but I am willing to bet that the majority of these people LOVE their Socialism when it fits their needs and are not whipped into a frenzy by some talking blow hard with an agenda.

Love thy neighbor was a nice thought by Jesus, It’s too bad that a lot of people here in the US don’t subscribe to that theory. Maybe we can petition the Pope to change the Bible or see if King James or Martin Luther are hidden somewhere so we can re-write certain passages in the bible specifically for the US Audience.

 Love Thy Neighbor, unless you have to pay for them too. Who cares if they are down trodden or sick or bed ridden. BOOT STRAPS!

Is it wrong to want to get health care for all US Citizens? Is it wrong to want your fellow man to have piece of mind, knowing that if something happens to them or their family they are covered? A healthy populace is a happy and productive populace.

But what do I know. I lived off of Food Stamps, went to public schools, took public transportation, got an FHA Loan, got the marriage tax breaks etc, etc, etc…I guess I am a socialist…Are you???
