I was reading Joe Biden is going to offer Americans “free” COVID test kits. Free. No cost. The government will just shower them on everyone who wants them, just like we have free COVID testing and free “vaccines”.
To my mind, this is a lot like a car salesmen–used or new–offering you $5,000 for a car not worth more than $1,000. How does that work? Well, he already ADDED $4,000 to the price of the car you want to buy. You were a complete sucker paying full price, and now you are a relative sucker paying relative full price.
They do this shit all day every day, and some apparently significant percentage of people are too stupid to understand it.
My last “trade in” I KNEW it was not worth more than $1,000–I buy them and run them into the ground–and when he offered me $1,000 I asked the salesman what they would do with it. He said pull what parts they could off of it and sell it for scrap metal. That sounded honest to me.
Here is the thing: over the past couple of years our appointed officials have just stopped COUNTING how much fucking money they are borrowing and creating to pay for every last little fucking thing any Democrat or Republican politician thinks it might take to make the average American voter happy for six months to a year.
Ponder this: leaving our kids with a pile of debt is the ultimate act of taxation without representation, isn’t it? We have one hell of a party, and then give the bill to people who were not even invited. It’s heart breaking and ruthlessly wrong. It’s a Ponzi scheme where the main beneficiaries never technically broke the law. They merely acted like selfish psychopaths, and were allowed to get away with it by a compliant, stupid, and apathetic electorate, along with all the people who are SUPPOSED to protect us, who aren’t. Maybe some of them have a thing for children or Satan, or bribes, but it seems easiest to assume most of them are unprincipled cowards, who deserve to be spit on in public.
But if most of them are no worse than most of us, how would we create the moral distance to justify doing that? Most of them ARE us. And most of us are fucking imbeciles. Complacent irresponsible gullible fools.
