Looks a bit like that Cronon fellow, eh?

An answer to "Putzky", on Professor and Learned Man of All Things Dirty Socialist's recent post (where my comment is in moderation and will likely not see the light of day). To be fair to the Good Proffstar, he has decent insight and information on the Middle East; if he could just learn to keep his damn-fool mouth shut about our homeland's politics, I could actually read his stuff without an urge to barf.

Understand that the good, learned professor has a far-Left, non-Classical Liberal, Progressive outlook on our American political situation. He’s adapted to and now elucidates the ‘class warfare’ meme that’s circulating around the proggiesphere; pushing the tired notion that if we could only take more from the ‘evil rich’ then all would be well; our society could enjoin the fanciful nirvana that proggs yearn for.

Instead, the fact looms large that even if you took every dime from every rich person in America and pushed it to support the current level of social programs, it still wouldn’t be enough to cover their dreams. Put simply, in a way anyone can understand:

Imagine that you had an average monthly income of about $170 balanced against average monthly expenses of about $940–and that you were more than $14,000 in debt.

Then imagine that as of today, you had only $58.60 in cash left in your bank account and $130.50 left on your line of credit.

Now multiply these numbers by 1 billion and you will have the up-to-date financial situation of the U.S. government.

We’ve been living well over our means for a decade now. We spent too much on the wars, but also too much on social programs. The U.S. government put itself in a non-constitutional ‘daddy-o statist’ position; Democrats have learned how to lure voters with promised cash and goodies directly from public coffers: Looters and moochers, or ‘Loochers’ for brevity. These loochers now comprise almost the whole of the once-proud Democratic party, and are surely running our Republic to ground.
