A Piece of Me

I believe:

An "entitlement" mentality exists pervasively throughout the United States of America. I liken this mentality to socialism, and personally explaining my feelings would equate to the definition of socialism in my mind. That is because it seems to me like socialism is the primary result of the democratic party agenda.

One question I yearn to answer is:

Is this result (socialism) an intended or unintended consequence of the liberal agenda? Do these democrats actually WANT socialism, or is socialism a byproduct of their hapless and wreckless meanderings??

What gives us the right to earn whatever we demand for any task, no matter how remedial? Shouldn't job "outsourcing" be viewed as a clue that we might be overinflating the value of our own skills here on this earth? Just because we are American makes us worth more? I think not because in my eyes, we are all truly created equal. The unkown child who starves to death in some obscure third world country has no less rank than any President, King, or ruler. We should approach life as equals, and nobody on this planet is worthy to rise above anyone else in the human struggle. Success on earth is measured solely by the number of hours you happen to stay alive.

All this is a very simple concept to make your own, and it truly works in life. Your own personal success will never be hampered by honesty. Place yourself as EQUAL to anyone you encounter, not HIGHER, not LOWER, and you will be safe.

Trust in final Justice-it is a trust in God.

...and that's a "piece of me"

Entitlement is such a plague. I see it even in my children on ocassion. Thankfully it is fleeting.

Entitlement leads to victimization and we know that leads no where productive.

My family (2 parents and 6 siblings) are predominately rooted in the entitlement mentality. The very few of us who view life differently are amazed we share the same bloodline and shared the same teachings and dinner table indoctrination.

However it came to be, I am glad that I arrived at a different perspective.

Keep us thinking!!
