Isn't one of the key medical principle to, "Do No Harm"? The reason that doctors the world over adhere to this concept is that deep down they know that their power and knowledge is "limited" and for that reason are aware that they do and can make mistakes. It could be due to their lack of knowledge or any one of a million other reasons. When they look into the mirror, they know that they are not perfect and all powerful. It is a humbling concept that has served both doctors and patients well for many thousands of years. This might sound like a slow start and it is. The reason for the slow start is that the point I want to make is that much more important. Here goes.
We have in Washington DC a very unique collection of people. They are very much different from the doctors who I have described above. When these people look into the mirror they see "Power" and "Perfection". They know deep in their hearts that they are of superior intellect to the people who elected them. They know that someone far in the reaches of the universe called just them to come to the aid and service of the poor souls who elected them. This uniform mind set of the individuals in Washington DC accounts for the way they act and conduct them selves. Think for a moment, this will take some thinking to get into the right mood since you by virtue of the fact you are reading this Blog that you are not "Perfect in Intellect" and "All Powerful". Now that you are in the right state, think how you would deal with the Obama Socialized Medical bill. Since you know already that every thing that matters in this world has originated in Washington DC and was the direct result of your vote or signature that if you "Do Nothing", then nothing will get done or happen. If on the other hand you did not consider yourself "Perfect" and "All Powerful" by your doing nothing, the prospects still existed that something could happen without your vote or signature. See how it works? For those of us who are not "Perfect" and "All Powerful" when we don't act it doesn't mean nothing will happen. Imagine if one of these guys from Washington DC were in a deer stand and big deer came by, if they did not shoot the deer, the deer would go on forever without ever being shot. Now you and I know that if we don't shoot the deer, some other deer hunter will probably shoot it. See how this works? In the case of the economy, these guys in Washington DC think that if they don't create jobs by their "Will", then jobs will not be produced. Think about it. How could a job be produced by some one without "Perfection of Intellect" and "Power". Notice that since they hold "All Power", by definition, there is not any other power, so we are all powerless. See how it all fits together?
Now back to the doctor thing. The first rule is to "Do No Harm". In the case of the doctor it would be a simple decision, but for the guys in Washington DC, it is a very difficult situation. That is because they know that by "Doing Nothing", they will be doing and even bigger harm to all of us poor stupid voters. They feel sorry for us and feel a burning responsibility to take care of us no mater how much of our money and our children's money they have to spend right now. I think that all of you must know that I am not a religious person, but there are many good lessons that are a part of most religions and one of the most important is the teaching as to just how "Unimportant" we are in the scheme of things. By religious definition our knowledge is limited as is our power over the world. Notice how different the guys in Washington DC see them selves? The last thing that they are in terms of this big and complex world is "Unimportant". If you look at the Democrats as a group, most don't buy into the Religious teachings regarding their importance. Now take a look at the whole Global Warming thing and tell me if I don't have it right about this group now controlling Washington DC. If they see themselves as "All Powerful", then saving the world should be child's play for them. Given their superior "Intellect", why should they need ideas or opinions from anyone else. It would just be a waste of their time. Am I right here?
The problem is that this bunch of morons are going to cause a lot of trouble for everyone of us and it is going to take a very long time for our children to dig out of this. We won't be able to do it in our life times. It takes a lot less time to burn down a barn than it does to build a new one. Something cause Rome, Egypt and Russia to burn down and in most cases they did not build back. China is building back, but how many years has it been since they were on top? If this sound dark, it is and it happened right under our noses.
PS, A little after thought.
I think that many of you have read biographies of George Washington and know that he was not seeking either the Generalship of the Revolutionary Army nor the Presidency of the new United States. He took the job because he was "asked" my his peers. Now look what has happened since. No one asks these guys in Washington DC to take time from their "real" jobs and serve in Washington DC. They are basically self chosen and are good enough con men to get money out of people like us to finance their "calling" for the ultimate "do gooder" public service and get paid well for the effort. They are not doing the job because we asked. They feel they "own" the job. They fought for it and won it fair and square. It is theirs to do with what they want. They had some idea when they "chose themselves" and it has not changed along the way by anyone who voted for them. You did not give them your vote, they won it just like playing the slots. Now the office belongs to them. Washington was asked to serve a third term, but he declined the request. He felt that others should have to "do" the job. Today, our elected officials don't feel they have a job to "do", they own the job and can define it anyway they want. It is theirs. Now do you see why these morons are even talking about things like Medical Reform and Global Warming? Most don't have "real" jobs. They just go around feeling smart and powerful doing what "they" feel needs to be done. It is over for the voter. They don't need us anymore. They own the job and that it.
