You Know You Live In A Country Run By Idiots If….

…A Muslim Army officer crying “Allah Akbar” while shooting up an army base and killing 13 soldiers is considered to have committed “Workplace Violence” while an American citizen boasting a Ron Paul bumper sticker is classified as a “Domestic Terrorist”.

….You can get arrested for expired tags on your car but not for being in the country illegally.

….Your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more of our money.

….A seven year old boy can be thrown out of school for calling his teacher “cute” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable.

….The Supreme Court of the United States can rule that lower courts cannot display the 10 Commandments in their courtroom, while sitting in front of a display of the 10 Commandments.

….Children are forcibly removed from parents who appropriately discipline them while children of “underprivileged” drug addicts are left to rot in filth infested cesspools.

….Working class Americans pay for their own health care (and the health care of everyone else) while unmarried women are free to have child after child on the “State’s” dime ($six figures) while never being held responsible for their own choices (incentive to breed built into system).

….Hard work and success are rewarded with higher taxes and government intrusion, while slothful, lazy behavior is rewarded with EBT cards, WIC checks, Medicaid and subsidized housing, and free cell phones.

….The government’s plan for getting people back to work is to provide 99 weeks of unemployment checks (to not work).

….Being self-sufficient is considered a threat to the government.

….Politicians think that stripping away the amendments to the constitution is really protecting the rights of the people.

….The rights of the Government come before the rights of the individual.

….Parents believe the State is responsible for providing for their children.

….You pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big screen TV while your neighbor defaults on his mortgage (while buying iPhones, TV’s and new cars) and the government forgives his debt and reduces his mortgage (with your tax dollars).

….Your government can add anything they want to your kid’s water (fluoride, chlorine, etc.) but you are not allowed to give them raw milk.

….Being stripped of the ability to defend yourself makes you “safe”.

….You have to have your parents signature to go on a school field trip but not to get an abortion.

….An 80 year old woman can be strip searched by the TSA but a Muslim woman in a burka is only subject to having her neck and head searched.

A Mile Of Paper

Okay, it’s not a mile.  But after of few days of working, traveling, and consuming, I probably have 10 feet of receipts in my wallet!  However, technology has come to the rescue with the ‘Green Receipt’

More stores during the ‘back to school’ season are offering the requirement option of having the receipt e-mailed to you.  Sure, it’s a nice option, that could reduce the amount of paper that is printed… …assuming you don’t print it (even more wastefully) at home.

A better solution?

STOP GIVING ME A FOOT AND A HALF OF RECEIPT when I buy one simple item at your store!  Lowe’s, Home Depot, and Wal-Mart are some of the WORST offenders!!  I only need to know date, store, address, items purchased, tax information, and totals.

The rest is a Greenie’s nightmare about an assault on Mother Earth.

I don’t want to fill out your survey, use your coupon, register for more coupons, or receive e-mails from your store.  If I wanted to do that, I would do that.  I don’t need miles of receipts to beg me to do it.

Want to go green?  Make it the shortest receipt possible.

Oh, it would help if the ink didn’t fade off after a couple of weeks… …but I digress
