The American Dream is About Receiving Our Fair Share

What does it mean to get one's fair share in order to achieve the American Dream?

Getting our fair share means never keeping what we have earned, because by giving away what we have, we get what others have.

Getting our fair share means letting the stars shine on you instead of reaching out for them.

Getting our fair share means nationalized health care because everyone should get to be on a list. And the collective should know every detail about everyone's details.

Getting our fair share means letting all children receive the same level of education. All children should automatically receive a fifty percent on their tests.

Getting our fair share means giving the United Nations a chance to equalize us with other nations by sharing laws, police forces, and dental clinics.

Getting our fair share means walking our neighbors dog, because his dog is my dog. His crap is my crap.

Getting our fair share means public transportation for all. No one has the right to own one, let alone two cars, when some people have to ride the bus to the grocery store.

Getting our fair share means limiting quantities at the grocery store. Large cities are only allowed to have the same selection as a small rural community.

Getting our fair share means unequal taxation. No one must be taxed who is underpaid.

Getting our fair share means unions for everyone! State Sponsored Churches Pastors Union (Kim Chee!), Muslim Professors Union, Undocumented Lawn Care Workers Union, Drug Smugglers Union, Coyotes Union, Sea World Animals Union. (Only the military must not have a union, because their salaries must be kept in a reasonable range so the bankrupt government will be able to afford their services.)

Getting our fair share means being equally unprotected. No person shall bear arms, because that would make some people safer than others.

Getting our fair share means passing the lollipop around the playground so that all kids have the same germs.

Getting our fair share means no HOA's that put a strain on those with old clunkers approved People's Cars.

Getting our fair share means never having to say you're sorry. If someone apologizes, then everyone will feel like apologizing.

Getting our fair share means everyone receives a letter in the mail a week before the census, so that everyone will equally be anticipating next week's recycling day.

Getting our fair share means always having to say you're sorry for everything that you do because everyone's feelings will always never be hurt.

Getting our fair share means BBQ pits for everyone, so that wild boars roaming the dusty streets will be evenly roasted.

Getting our fair share means doing away with "illegal" status for visitors and residents. All citizens of the world must be equally welcome and receive their fair share of the fruits of democracy.

Getting our fair share means holding "terrorist" trials in all major cities. Why should some cities be humiliated and not others?

Getting our fair share means brand new equal opportunity housing in the inequally wealthy suburban neighborhoods.

Getting our fair share means serving prison sentences with the people who committed crimes against us.

Getting our fair share means that animals should be able to maim humans because animals are humans too.

Getting our fair share means that sea creatures receive the same amount of tax dollars as our school systems.

And above all, getting our fair share means whining incessantly when our whims are being trampled on by insensitive racist, capitalist, pigs.

Together, we can achieve the American Dream if we all stick together and let the government achieve the dream for us. It is the only way.

Thank you for posting this. The Obama census letter I just got told me that unless I fill it out, my community won’t get its “fair share”.

“You’ll get what is coming to you.”

To a conservative, it’s a goal.

To a lefty, it’s a threat.

The real American dream is not to have a damn government, but one that does a damn good job of defending its citizens.
