BOOMERS – PARASITES ON THE ASS OF AMERICA « The Burning Platform

"I don’t think we’d even be having this debate were it not for the economic disaster that occurred."

Bull crap! This debate was inevitable as soon as Reagan lit the torch on deficit spending and each succeeding presidency has been progressively worse.

The economic disaster was inevitable, albeit avoidable. Deficit spending is the mechanism by which wealth inequality has increased, which may lead to our downfall.

We would be in this mess with or without BB. The civil rights movement and war protests were child's play compared to what may become necessary to fight back against a police state. It would only be ironic justice to see the boomers go out in the same manner in which they came in, with the world embroiled in world war. They did nothing and contributed nothing to making the world a better place. Neither has any other generation. We're only floating in a sea, tossed about by wind and wave. To put it in a spiritual perspective, what is seen is only a shadow of what is real. Hopefully, the seas will calm, or, they may not. What can one do except ride out the storm? Blaming your fellow passengers won't make the storm any more or less furious. Neither is the Titanic a good analogy. We have much less control over our destiny than to consider we either manufactured our ship or captain it. Let go and let God, and perhaps mercy may be bestowed upon us. The nation of Israel is a better analogy for our predicament, besieged on every side by an enemy sworn to our destruction. In fact, this analogy resonates a great deal further, considering who are the enemies of the state. In the geo-political reality which we face as a nation, one can only pray for peace in our lifetimes, and to be unmolested in the pursuit of happiness. It is the latter for which we find ourselves embroiled in battle.

I don't agree that conservatism is the right answer, but I like this message, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuCaWYvpVZg
