Yet something struck me the other night over the differences between 0WS and of all things Discovery Channel, program Gold Rush. I never really followed Gold Rush yet it comes on just before Air Alaska a program that I enjoy. 0WS is typical of the modern day loser, self-absorbed with their pity and the concept somehow the system is gamed them. They congregate and complain holding their iPhones and I Pads and generally being obnoxious. Most conservative people would look at this and say, get a life dont be a pawn for the bigger players who are directing this, youre just plain stupid.
Now for the program Gold Rush get past the soap opera production aspects and you start seeing the true American spirit of entrepreneurialism by individuals. True Americans risking all at the chance to being wealthy and successful. The program is a great lesson in whats great about America the young 16-year-old whos trying to carry on his grandfathers tradition of small-scale mining in the Alaskan wilderness. The hard crusted prospector who is taking all advantages of his knowledge and skills plus wit for his personal quest for gold has he moves in on the failures of the previous crew. The crew trying to learn all the ropes continually in trouble yet reached down inside within themselves to bring out a successful conclusion, my God this is America the beautiful. I personally would choose any one of them to be my neighbor over the rot gut politicians who enable the OWS misfits for political gains.
Hats off to Discovery Channel for putting the American dream back in the front of our consciousness. We are indeed a great people that can do great things despite the whiners and the politicians who would enable them.
