It is just my opinion, and my blog, to say that a large number of the civilians in the American population are rather stupid. I do mean stupid! I have watched in wonder at the people participating in this Occupy Wall Street, whatever it is, and ask myself, what the? Are they mad because rich people are rich? Are they mad because they are poor? Are they mad at........? At this point that I do not know what it is they are doing other than breaking laws, being disruptive and just plain not doing anything. Do these people not have jobs? How do you get time of for that?
As a veteran, I would like to think that I did my part in making it possible for them to be stupid in public. As for what they are doing, I wish that I could help stop it. It appears to me to be an abuse of the privileges of being an American and pointless. I would ask, how many of these people are registered voters? How many have ever voted? If they could get this kind of a turn out on election day, the parties that run this country would more likely produce better candidates and be more productive. Just think of the power that is in the hands of these people who are too ignorant to know how to use it. Think of the fear that this could spark in our government officials if all these people showed up on election day to cast their ballots. But, no, they would rather squat on Wall Street, disrupt those who are working for a living, with no real direction or even end game, and get on the news and cry about their treatment.
I have friends on facebook that act sympathetic to the cause, what ever that may be. I think that they are upset because less than 1% of the population are wealthy. I am sure a lot of them earned the position they have and a little hard work could get anyone that same opportunity. How this statistic; less than 1% of the population of the United States, on active duty, reserve or veteran, have ever answered the call to protect the rights of these clowns by joining the service. It is a choice, I know. I just do not see anyone out in the street protesting the government for not letting more people sign up. Not one person has ever made a stand foe the veterans who are still fighting for the benefits they should already have. Not one of these people visits the VA hospitals and just says thanks to a dying soldier for his service. If they ever did visit a VA hospital, they would be out there protesting Obama care and it would have been repealed just as fast as it was enacted. These people are what is wrong with America. This news goes around the world and peoples from other countries see this. Does this really make us look good in the eyes of the world? The richest country in the world protesting wealth and that more Americans do not have it?
I will stop here with one thought. I like money, it lets me do the things I like, but;
GREED IS A RELIGION, AND MONEY IS GOD!
Who do you want to be?
