Writing on the wall,
No one believes it


 ~ Iran is testing ballistic missiles again. On two of them they wrote, “Israel must be wiped out”. Our current administration has enabled this series of events from a country who is officially recognized to sponsor terrorism.

 ~ You have officially been warned: Our economy is doing so well that our President says they need to take more action to avert another financial crisis. As always, they will do nothing about it but talk.   Then he can take the high road and say, “I told you so”, just like George Bush and the housing bubble.

 ~ ‘Louisiana has the highest rate of incarceration of any place in the entire world. …the ACLU is suing the public defender’s office over its refusal to give representation to certain felony defendants.’ Gawker

Just when you think you know your rights and they’re protected by the U.S. Constitution, someone in the government just ignores it. It’s happening more and more…just ask a few of the bikers jailed in Waco.

 ~ “You can create a poverty trap even around the toilet paper that we study," Michigan professor Yesim Orhun

 ~ Another redundant study headlines, ’Short men, overweight women get a raw deal in life in jobs and income’.

These studies seem to justify and promote victimization, whether real or imagined. Statistics prove nothing but trends and numbers, they do not determine the outcome of individual achievement. Sloth will seldom produce a successful career.

I am an expert on sloth. You sir, are correct in your assessment. Being lazy has prevented me from being rich and famous on numerous occasions. Yet, I tend to think of it like this: if the good Lord had intended me to be rich, I'd have been born with a full wallet and the drive to keep it.
