Socialism strikes again
« on: December 31, 2014, 01:30:53 AM »
I simply can't understand why people cling to this failed system.  It has yet to work anywhere it's tried.  (Scandinavia included) 

While socialism fails everywhere it's tried, capitalism only succeeds everywhere it's tried.

And the longer gas prices remain low, the worse it will get for Venezuela.   Good and hard.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

All together now (and try to keep with the beat).  Let us chant:

"Because we just have not put the 'right' people in charge.  Yet."

stay safe.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

The oil companies should have pulled an Ellis Wyatt when venezeula nationalized oil production, then venezeula wouldn't have even had an economy to go into recession.
