skyrider 0 #1 October 22, 2010 Why Americans Are Mad Dear Editor: Tuesday, October 19, 2010 Re: Letter to the president Mr. President, You are beginning to bore the hell out of us! Saul Alinsky was evil and his works are the antithesis of the Rule of Law! We Americans, not every single one to be fair, but everyone that knows what America can be and would be if the government let us be, are mad as hell! We are thinking quite clearly about that also! Get the government out of the way and we will succeed! In fact, if we succeed, the government succeeds! Not the other way around because government does not earn money, they spend it. We the old, weak and tired know that Americans get frustrated when we are faced with a problem, especially ones we know how to fix but are not allowed to attack full on. Let us go, let the Americans lose on the deficit, the budget, the environment and the economy, and the entire world would fall back on the heels. We know that. We all know that! I believe you know that too. Get out of our way! Get your pompous egos out of our faces and let us fix this country before we treat you the way we treat people like you in our world of free enterprise. We have no illusions of how bad you are at governing! We had better things to do than to babysit your childish backsides until now. Now we have lots of time, thanks to you fools. We don’t want to compromise with you, we don’t even want to hear your BS until you admit that it was you, that is right, all of you senators and representatives that made the rules that have screwed up this country. Admit it! Until then, get out of our way! We will make a clear set of rules everyone will understand, everyone will follow and that will favor no one group over another! We want everyone to succeed! Get out of our way ! You have failed to address any issue without making it worse! What absolute failures you are! We here in the real world eat jackasses like you for dinner. We exist on the plain of ideas and go getters. We drive change through trial and error, not error upon error upon error. We don’t protect failures we fire them because, we know everyone has a purpose but that doesn’t mean it’s here. You act like what you do is so hard, but we know spending other people’s money isn’t hard, in fact, we laugh at how ridiculous that suggestion is! Quit whining! Or better yet, just quit! No one will miss you! Working to make money for other people is what’s hard. Out here, we make money to pay our investors, we pay our employees, we pay for their benefits, we pay for our buildings, we pay our taxes, we try to save a little for new ideas and if we are lucky we pay ourselves. Spending other people’s money takes no skill at all. None at all! Sorry we can’t take you serious! When compared to taking your dream through hundreds of design iterations, hundreds of testing failures and hundreds of attempts to market your product while keeping your employees and financiers motivated to keep trying with you until you finally make a product that other people want or need. Oh, and we’re not done there because we all have competitors. We have to keep our products ahead of all the other folks that want their dreams to take the place of our products. You say the free market isn’t fair … what an asinine thought that is. Of course not! We can’t all make the best product, we can’t all be the boss, we can’t all succeed. Life is a struggle. An amazing struggle! Anything else would be boring! Life to us is a struggle of conquering our animal instincts while raising a family and contributing to our community while keeping everyone healthy and safe. Not boring! Awesome, in fact! The American Dream! Fairness to me is boring! Fairness is a pipe dream! Fairness can’t even be forced within a family of 2 kids because we all have different needs, desires and dreams. You in government need to understand your role, your place at the bottom of the food chain and, your purpose, which is to keep us free, to keep us safe, to use successful methods to run our government and to stay out of our way as much as possible. Government is a necessary evil, and the Constitution is the Law that keeps you limited and small! There is no going around it. Without our dreams being turned into products that create profits, there are no taxes being paid, there are no new employees to hire, there is no business growth and therefore, there is no government. So let me finish this up. We want you to stop turning us into Ireland, France, Greece, or Spain before your union buddies start burning our towns, overturning our cars and blocking our highways for money you promised them that doesn’t exist! Respectfully, A typical American worker, tax payer and one of 300 million of your employers Mr. Richard White http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/letter/28943 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why do we want to set ourselves up to lose? the artical is from a Canadian paper.... I guess that's why the 2nd paragraph (which is just one sentence) begins "We Americans..." The 3rd paragraph starts "Get the government out of the way and we will succeed" The simplest explanation is that the writer is semi-literate....

billvon 3,111 #21 October 23, 2010 Why are you all nitpicking? Why not address the very real point of this? Which is: =========== We're old, weak and tired and VERY VERY mad and bored! We're not sure why or where we're from, but something has to change! So let us lose, and tell your union buddies to not burn our towns, overturn our cars or run toll roads. =========== Can any of you liberal losers answer THAT?
