Comment of the Week: "If people are so eager to have their "truth", let them pay for the consequences of their own actions. "
Why do we have to keep paying to clean up the results of their life choices if their "truth" is as good as any other?If "the means" is good, then "the ends" must be good as well... When abortion officially made people disposable, it devalued humanity. We pay for it in dollars (the welfare state) and in lost souls. Look around you. Where is there positive change in this culture? Proverbs talks about a man too lazy to lift his hand from the bowl to his mouth. We are surrounded by the like. When people don't care about their own children, they don't care about anything. Solid homes mean a solid country. That is truth. I could write a whole column on this, but won't. Most of you could write it as well, so I'll spare us all, and just reiterate: Ann Barnhardt is right." -- Military Mom on "Spare Christ this 'my truth your truth' pantheistic Oprah Winfrey slackjawed bullshit"

Your Say
The people that make decisions and accept consequences are already being careful. The other 50% dismiss your logic, ignore your evidence, and then attack you. How do you convince them they shouldn't receive a bailout? If the price for their irresponsibility is that YOU have to sacrifice more, they say "bring it on."
Us "inactivists" have to go on strike, go John Galt. The Takers aren't going to stop taking until they have it all or can't get more. You can't use logic to convince emotionally/religiously driven fanatics like Leftists.

What say you about the two-headed child recently born in Brazil?
I suppose we must ask who's got the right to make the decision for life or death, and what is the hierarchy of criteria for that decision.
Who/What created this human being and what is that entity's obligation to its creation?
If it's not true at the extremes, it's not truth.
