This'n'That; March Twenty-Second #1; Social Class

Why Do They Do What They Do?!?
    Have ya ever spent much time watching the pedestrians in your neighborhood?  I have.  Just speaking of the teens and tweens, most of them walk in the street; most of them (the boys) have their "pants on the ground!"  The City of Rochester, N.Y., provides some of the best sidewalks in the state and yet lot'sa folks insist on walking in the street.  Not only walk in the street.... they defy the occasional motorist to hit/avoid them!
    I have a theory:
The children of this generation feel sorry for their negro peers and as such the white kids imitate the negro kids.
The negro kids seem to have an in-born sense that they're--by heredity--second-class citizens.  Where that comes from, I haven't a clue.  Maybe--during America's 'slavery era'--the negros' place in the social hierarchy was in the street, literally.  The southern plantation owners considered--as did the U.S. Constitution--the slaves to be property, as though they were horses, cattle, sheep, dogs, wagons, plows, cotton bales, et al.  To be put in the same social class as any other piece of property is to be religated to their environs; the street!  Hence, they still walk in the streets.
    When I was growing up in the 1950s and early '60s, the negros' big complaint was they garnered no respect.  This feeling seems to permeate the culture into today.  Now, I ask you:  How much respect does the average citizen have for another who ignores everyone else's freedoms?!?  I can't sit on my front porch without being subjected to the incessant 'eardrum shattering' noise from passing cars that's reputed to be music!!  Today's children--walking in the street--defy anyone older to make eye contact.  I ignore the defiance and make said contact anyway.... and usually speak to those I think would be receptive to a greeting.  The response is usually--if not being completely ignored--a "yo;" what'ta'hell kinda answer is that?!?  It certainly increases my respect for the respondents as a class, NOT!!
'Nuffa my bitchin'!!

This'n'That; January Nineteenth #1; Arschloch!

"Clown Prince" Now THE Job Killer!
    Not only is "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist" officially "The Jobs Killer,' but is a definite proponent of communism!!  By pandering to the unions and tree-huggers who make up a substantial percentage of his voting base, he's killed 20,000 IMMEDIATE jobs; untold hundreds-of-thousands of future jobs.  owe-bama--the idiotic socio-fascist SOROS lackey--revealed that his decision was not based on the merits of the Keystone XL pipeline project!! 

    Aside from killing those hundreds-of-thousands of sorely needed American jobs, the idiotic "Clown Prince" is adding 'the active promotion of communism' to his resume'.  The Chinese--after visiting various locations outside mainland China--have discovered some of 'the finer things in life,' like the air conditioning that we Americans consider a necessity.  Not only air conditioning, but larger homes to put it in; larger cars to park in the garage; a more middleclass lifestyle will be fueled by the Canadian oil that "Arschloch owe-bama" has so arrogantly rejected.

    This added oil would boost the American economy at a time when said boost is sorely needed by the average American!!  Not only the oil-related jobs that were killed, but the country needs a reliable source of energy at market prices.  The Canadian oil would go far to release the strangle-hold Middle Eastern oil producers have on the American economy.

    No matter who "Arschloch owe-bama" blames for his decision, the owe-bamacRATic voter base has no recourse but to begin to believe that all the decisions of the past three years have been either for political reasons or for the sole benefit of George Soros, or "Arschloch owe-bama," or "Michelle Antoinette" or any number of their friends; certainly not for any of us he's reduced to 'Serf Class' status!!!

This'n'That; December Twenty-Fourth #1; Entitlements

Call It What It Is.... and FIX IT!!
    Family Assistance; Aid to Families with Dependent Children; food stamps; SSI; cash compensation for low-income workers; free healthcare; utility bill assistance, just a few of the aliases welfare goes by. The word 'welfare' is the only one that applies to this multitude of benefits of the 'sweat of others!'
    Welfare--as we know it--has it's beginnings with The Franklin Roosevelt administration in the early 1930s.  Prior to that, most assistance was handled at the county level, and normally any cash benefits were repaid when possible.  President Lyndon Johnson continued--nay, greatly expanded--the various programs inplace at the time.  The 'Johnson' programs were expanded by republicRATics as well, namely Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford.
    After some political "slight-of-hand" both then-Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich and ex-President "Slick-Willie" Clinton deemed the welfare system 'reformed.'  That reformation largely transferred recipients from the 'welfare system' as we know it, into SSI (Supplemental Security Income).  A major point in the reformation was The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA).  Along the way, PRWORA instituted TANF (largely Aid to Knocked Up Young Teens-Sperm Donor, Unknown) which replaced the 1935-era AFDC (Aid to Families with Dependent Children).
    Social Security old-age benefits have long been termed 'entitlements;' THEY ARE NOT!!  Welfare is entirely funded by the largess of the taxpayer via the confiscatory tax code of the federal government.  Social Security and it's offspring, Medicare--in federal mythology--is funded by individual workers paying into the non-existent federal Social Security "lockbox."  These funds were originally to be invested for the benefit of the eventual recipients; not so much any more!  By law, any funds not paid out in benefits are to be loaned to the federal government's 'General Fund.'  The federal government is then required to re-pay the funds and interest to the Social Security Trust Fund.  As is the norm with the 'Ruling Class,' not only do they not repay the Social Security debt, they don't even bother to produce a CONSTITUTIONALLY REQUIRED annual federal budget!!  As of December, 2009: The Social Security Trust Fund is owed $2,900,000,000,000.00 (2.9TRILLION BUCKS!!).
    There comes a point--and some think we're there now--when the 46% "pushing-the-wagon (workers)" can no longer afford to support the 54% "riding-in-the-wagon (freeloaders)!!  Members of the Ruling Class continue to heap debt-upon-debt on the America's Serf Class for their personal and professional aggrandizement!  That there's no reasonable way for future generations of the Serf Class to ever repay the vast debt amounts, matters not one whit to said Ruling Class!!  So long as they can continue to live the luxurious lifestyle denied their constituents; so long as they can continue to be re-elected are the only driving forces behind their greed and power accumulation!!
    The incessant borrowing at the federal level--if allowed to continue--will be the death knell for America's economy!!  The excessive borrowing is to create a utopian society for those who won't work, by those who buy their votes!  This continuing "free lunch" for the majority of working-age Americans does little beyond creating an 'entitled sub-class' whose perceived entitlement frees them from any exertions-for-pay.  America now has an entire sub-set within the Serf Class that can vote for it's own 'pay' increases--much like those of the Ruling Class!!  Thus far, it's continuing destruction of economic activity has had several consequences:
Mob Robberies-gangs of youths arbitrairily beat and rob or mug, individuals who appear to have no methods or means of defense.
Flash Mobs-gangs of youths and young adults almost instaneously--without perceived provocation--rise up and destroy anything and everything in their path; people, cars, buildings, public utilities-all is 'fair game!'
Personal Safety-most places that once were meccas of safety are no longer; cars, homes, barns, sheds, et al, in suburban or rural settings are now locked against those who would siphon gas, steal farm animals for food or sale; steal personal possessions, equipment for sale.
    We haven't YET come close to complete-and-total economic collapse!!  What we see today--the activities of everyone from the Ruling Class to the Flash Mobs--will seem like the 'Roaring Twenties' boom-times!!
'Splain to me again why YOU elected "Clown Prince ZERO-bama, the Narcissist?!?
'Splain to me why WE continue to re-elect the incumbants?!?
