Re: World leaders spell out demands to Obama: from the Mamila Times
Greetings,
We live in a world of dualities. anyone who bashes obama is deemed to be a racist. the black americans who voted for him did so because he is one of them. Yet if I said I voted for Ron Paul because he is one of mine, then I would be a racist. The paradox is any white politician with his credentials would never consider running nor would be picked to run for president. How is this man qualified to run america? What bills has he sponsered, what has he ever done? the health plan coverage was a clinton campaign promise in 1992 and after they were in, the bill died. Why, because we cannot afford it. why, because not everyone pulls their own weight. we have a whole segment of society that lives on government entitlements and breed irresponsibly because the taxpayers pay for it. these kids grow up learning every government handout that is available.
i did not get a high school diploma because my dad kicked me out of the house at 16 because he thought i was old enough to make it on my own "(he had an 8th grade education) i got my ged and went to college nightly and got an associate degree on my own while working, raising a family and coaching little league. i went to a technical college that advertised 95 percent placement in the early 80's. what i found out was they contacted each graduate 6 months after graduation and asked them if they had a job. 95 percent said yes. well the unemployment rate was 5% so that was average anyway. they never asked if you were employed at the career that you were educated in.
this is where it gets interesting. that college had an extreme amount of people attending on pell grants. there is no process that screens people for what they are enrolling in for example, i was in the accounting degree. i had about 25 people attending with me for an accounting degree. today, none of the others are working in the accounting field. why? because the college enrolled them in a program that the government paid for without looking at the student and determining if they would be employable in that profession. i attended classes with people that had no personal hygiene, had zero social graces, really bad tattoos etc. nobody in their right mind would hire them for a professional job. would you go to a doctor or see an attorney that had no teeth, scraggly hair and bad tattoos on their arms? i doubt it. that is why this government entitlement paid education doesn't work. they throw good money after bad.
You cannot expect the government to solve our problems, it starts at home first. guys, quit getting girls pregnant, then running off to be a player instead of being a father to your child. and buying a pack of pampers every week isn't being a father. girls, if you are going to be sexually active then take birth control. i know it's a responsibility for both yet the girl gets stuck if the guy runs off. don't have kids until you are able to support yourself and your children. remember the movie cinderella man when he had to get a government handout in the depression and how embarrassed he was. when he made his first paycheck, he went back and paid the government back. is that not an incredible story? would that happen today? people think they are entitled. thats why they call it an entitlement.
it is easy to preach "change" as an outsider. Let's just see how much change there is from obama. this will sound sarcastic but all these homeless people that voted for obama haven't made very good life decisions in their life, yet they are the ones who voted for obama. i was once young and liberal, until i started to pay taxes and saw all the handouts to those who make it their lifes work to freely take from the taxpayers coffers.
Namaste'
