General Stark's War

Mark is exactly correct. A populace that thinks "only" of now and what it is owed is a dying entity. Just watched an example of that on the O'Reilly show tonight- interviewing kids on the street about what they owe America. It was eye opening. They didn't owe a damn thing- but America owed them. Who do they think America is? Who do the democrats think owes all us our perks? Well thats easy- its the wealthy and its the fruitful. But they already pay the bulk of taxes. What's left? Government control of everything. The only answer will be that. Logic is "not" a difficult subject, But for those who refuse to heed it- the slogans and blaming that the left does are an intoxicant that absolves them of any responsibility, The only probelm is "who turns out the light when the last responsible individual or group passes from the scene?"
