crap..RAF.... so right wing tea party garbage..full of hate for those that
might be getting a hand out..
.no man worth his weight in salt wants to go cap in hand to others...
greed is the order of the day and greed is found in every human heart including
those in zen centres greedy for enlightenment..
navel gazing is not where it is at or griping and whining about giving to
others...
america is a rich country..a few dollars shared to those in need is not going
to break the bank..
what breaks america's bank are the constant wars... always fighting for
causes... sending the "black fodder and the poor white trash" out there to kill
kill kill..
.name me a war that america has participated in that has been a just war..
.since world war 2 america has taken the role of policing the world..
.there are causes in africa that need help..but where are the american
troops..?.
.if there is no gain in terms of oil etc..usa is no where to be seen...
oh i forgot the catch cry..democracy..freedom for all...america the land of
the free...another bit of bullshit..
god help america..that's for sure..with china on the rise..get your mandarin
linguistics sharpened, and your chopsticks in action...
a centralised government..communist from it's origins will be taking centre
stage...
the ho ha and hoopla 3 ring circus days of america are almost over..
.no longer the land of the free..it is tied to the likes of rupert murdoch and
fox news...
repeating endless mantras to enslave the people to believing all is well...
it's propaganda manipulation.
.and still they the little people believe they live in the land of the free...
waving their tea party right wing banners decrying national health insurance as
being some socialistic evil.
.move on..get over it..
pay up your taxes..
.and get busy so the taxes go where they are needed to make a just and good
society for ALL...
compassionate and caring and need i say again: SHARING!

Very true, but even today, let us imagine merle walking up to a modern American
zen center and telling them that her superior vision of compassion obliges them
to become homeless shelters, giving needy people "a thousand days" of food and
shelter, or ten days, or even one day.
One could hardly ask for a better example of how some people
confuse "higher consciousness" with their self-righteous
generosity with other people's money. I have no problem with them
demonstrating compassion by giving their assets away ... I wonder how many
homeless people she has living in HER 'squat'? The problem is that they band
together to empower politicians to steal from the productive, and the political
elites then share the loot with their kleptocrat allies or waste it on wars, or
pay off their client electorates such as the government 'workers' and very
little gets spent on the needy, many of whom, unfortunately, were social
parasites rather than people who just had some bad luck. However, government
mismanagement (including taking so much from the productive workers and
investors) has now crippled the economy, so that there really ARE a lot of
people who would LIKE to work, but there just aren't any jobs for them.
Moreover, there are about the same number of unemployed American citizens as
there are illegal immigrants, and people who share merle's
views are SO compassionate toward those illegal immigrants that they don't
stop to think how cruel it is for American workers to lose their homes because
'compassion' precludes reserving jobs for our own citizens.
