No worries, let the adults of the world (ie sheeple) take care of the hard lifting while the rest enjoy the fruits of their labor and complain on the sidelines.

I won't bother to address the personal attacks. As for what little remains it is a good reminder of why I tend to avoid discussions such as these. I don't enjoy banging my head against brick walls and I have seen very little evidence that minds are going to be changed when debating within the confines of social media. Essentially I believe it comes down to the fact that our country is divided by folks with wildly different world views. Something that I don't think was the case throughout much of our history. In the absence of unity (and I would argue personal responsibility as well.) the government has stepped in to fill the vacuum. I think that it is a slippery slope which spells disaster for our way of life. You think otherwise. We can agree to disagree.
