After Mike sent me to Stossel’s “Ponzi! Ponzi! Ponzi!” article and the link to VDH that CA referred us to today, I have to get this off my chest…
NO! I do NOT care one whit about your retired parents or your unfortunate siblings/cousins/co-workers, nor do I give a rat’s ass about your sick children. I care about MINE. You “progressives” can call me a cold-hearted bastard all day long, I’m fine with that, but the difference between you and me is that I actually love my family and will do everything in my power to take care of them. If that means that my retired (without a pension because the company she worked for for 18 years laid her off just in time to get away without paying her retirement salary) and widowed mother comes to live in my house with my wife and children because social security finally goes away, so be it. She let me live in her house as long as I needed to, it is my HONOR to let her stay with me if she wants (or needs). If my brother or sister get evicted because they didn’t pay their mortgage/rent on time, I will do what I must to make sure that their families are not living on the streets.
If social security and medicare and medicaid and food stamps all go away tomorrow, I will still do everything I must to take care of my family. And even if those things went away, my life wouldn’t change at all since I get no benefit from them to begin with… actually, in the long run, after those things go away my situation will improve because I’ll have more of my own money left to put to work for me.
If all of those things go away tomorrow and you and yours end up on the street… I DON’T CARE! The only reason your situation would enter into my thought process is if/when you try to steal from me (because I have things that I have acquired over time thanks to hard work). And when that happens, you will be shot. There will be no warning, if you are on my property and I do not know you and you pick up something that does not belong to you, you are a thief and you will be shot.

Stop trying to make me feel bad for your sick child or your poor, retired, sick parents/grandparents. I am sorry that your child is sick, but it is not my job to care about your child, that is YOUR job. I’m sorry that your parents/grandparents didn’t plan for their “later years” appropriately, but it is not my job to take care of them. If they raised you right, you would be grateful for everything they gave to you while you were growing and you would be willing to return the favor. If you are worried that your children won’t take care of you in your later years, well, sucks to be you, you must not have been a very good parent. I don’t care! And I will no longer pretend to care just to avoid confrontation. Let’s have this discussion, we’ll start it when you give me 10% of your income because I deserve it. If you’re not going to hand over your income to me because I said so, then shut the hell up about me handing over my money because you said so.

Another difference between you and I is that I know it is my responsibility to care for my family, and I accept that. I worked hard to get into a job that provides fairly good insurance (it’s not the best and it’s gotten worse since your annointed one passed his health careless bill, but that’s a different subject). And if my insurance isn’t enough to cover the bills, I’ll get another job and sell off everything I have to take care of my family.
Now that I’ve said that, I do (and/or prepare to do) these things even while the government steals such a large percentage of my “income” to give to you lazy f*****s. Imagine what I could do and what I would have left to expand my “circle of caring” if the government stole only a fraction of their current levels of my “income”.

I’m going to end this rant now by reiterating my opening statement, “No, I don’t care about your family, I care about mine… and you should too”
