It's because they don't think. No pun!

Interesting article about the way big government gets in the way of even liberals when some of them

realize they have been duped. I'm thinking "useful idiots" here.

It takes Global warming and our education systems as examples. The only problem is that when

people relegate their ideals to legislators and quit thinking, this is what they get, even when they

never wanted it. Gee, it must have really sounded good, eh?

 

Actions always have consequences when you don't think about them.

Yep. When you abdicate responsibility to others, you are foolish to think they will give that responsibility  the same weight as you do. It's like when you lend somebody something you treasure and it comes back all scuffed up.

I've always liked that site because these are individuals expressing thoughts, sometimes
just like Madison and Jefferson. It's especially
good to hear another's point of view when they
see an article and expand it with their thoughts.
That's how we learn.

Our ideology, not used, will destroy us, and the
naifs and dupes are letting themselves be that
way because they quit thinking.

Handing anything over to a politician and expecting it to not be abused is like turning a child over to a sexual predator and expecting them to be safe.
