CONUNDRUM

CONUNDRUM

 

The definition of  the word Conundrum is: something that is puzzling or  
confusing.

Here are six Conundrums of socialism in the United  States of America :

1. America is capitalist and greedy - yet half  of the population is 
subsidized.

2. Half of the population is  subsidized - yet they think they are victims.

3. They think they  are victims - yet their representatives run the 
government.

4.  Their representatives run the government - yet the poor keep getting  
poorer.

5. The poor keep getting poorer - yet they have things that  people in 
other countries only dream about.

6. They have things  that people in other countries only dream about - yet 
they want America to be  more like those other countries.

Think about it! And that, my  friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the 
21st Century.

Makes you  wonder who is doing the math.

These three, short sentences tell you  a lot about the direction of our 
current government and cultural  environment:

1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the  actions of a few 
lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the  actions of a few 
lunatics. Funny how that works.

And here's another  one worth considering...

2. Seems we constantly hear about how  Social Security is going to run out 
of money. How come we never hear about  welfare or food stamps running out 
of money? What's interesting is the first  group "worked for" their money, 
but the second didn't. Think about  it.....

and Last but not least,

3. Why are we cutting  benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our 
military and cutting our army  to a level lower than before WWII, but we are 
not stopping the payments or  benefits to illegal aliens.

Am I the only one missing  something?
