If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for being in the country illegally, you live in a country run by idiots.

If you have to get your parent’s permission to go on a field trip or to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion, you live in a country run by idiots.

If you have to show identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor or check out a library book, but not to vote who runs the government, you live in a country run by idiots.

If the government wants to ban stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun magazines with more than ten rounds, but gives 20 F-16 fighter jets to the crazy leaders in Egypt , you live in a country run by idiots.

If, in the largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not a 24-ounce soda because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat, you live in a country run by idiots.

If an 80-year-old woman can be strip-searched by the TSA but a woman in a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched, you live in a country run by idiots.

If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more, you live in a country run by idiots.

If a seven year old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher is cute, but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable, you live in a country run by idiots.

If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government intrusion, while not working is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid, Subsidized Housing and Free Cell Phones, you live in a country run by idiots.

If the government’s plan for getting people back to work is to incentivize NOT working with 99 weeks of unemployment checks and no requirement to prove they applied but cannot find work, you live in a country run by idiots.

If being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you more safe according to the government, you live in a country run by idiots.

If you are offended by this article, I’ll bet you voted for the idiots who are running our great country into the ground.

Hmmm I think there is a constant in your post but I can't quite seem to put it together....

I disagree. Not idiots at all. It is how they get the votes to run the government. Pretty clever, if you ask me.


...hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government intrusion, while not working is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid, Subsidized Housing and Free Cell Phones, you live in a country run by idiots...

If you rob Peter to pay Paul, you can pretty much count on Paul's vote. Again, not stupid.

It's not about running the government; it's about personal power and nest-feathering

If you have to be drug tested to gain employment, but not to collect a welfare check.....(you know the rest!)

Did you write that jungle, or was that from somewhere?

Politicians are not elected based on the voting public's knowledge, common sense, or original thought processes. Proven year after year after year. Thus, we end up with lunacy like is noted in jungles post. That list can be expanded upon so much, it is mind boggling! Politicians understand this all too well and depend on the U.S. voters to keep on keeping on.
