My son has from day one has thought that voting rat should be a hanging offense but I was amazed when my daughter, three Degrees, started talking Conservative and I pick up the same noise from their friends, maybe times they are a changing.
My daughter’s government class at the local junior college today had an interesting discussion regarding our current state of affairs and our government.
When the instructor asked how many watched Obama’s speech on Wednesday, it was discovered NO ONE in the class watched his speech.
When asked by the instructor how many identified themselves as Democrats only 3 raised their hands.
When asked what their thoughts were on the type of government we have in America, the entire class stated our form of government is the BEST in the world. The problem is not with the form of government, but the corruption which seems to be pervasive among politicians of both parties.
The students stated they did not want to change the government we were founded on, just the politicians.
They also wanted the government agencies to SHRINK, they wanted LESS taxes, and they wanted the government out of their lives.
Several who had lived in other countries (besides Mexico!) stated that what they liked about this country were the freedoms we enjoyed here.
My daughter was able to express her conservative viewpoints without feeling intimidated by the instructor or fellow students. Surprisingly, as she explained her conservative positions on issues, others in the class joined in agreeing with her.
I thought their responses were interesting.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Bear in mind our kids who have never had any .guv help are scraping by on pissant jobs, watching their ‘diverse’ friends/families making out pretty good on the dole.
And when they finally make enough money to pay taxes, reality sinks in.
Maybe, just maybe, the message is getting through........YOUNGER VOTERS....are going to have to PAY THE TAXES to support the BLOATED GOVERNMENT SPENDING!!!
So that hopey changy thing really does suck for the college kids.Not willing to vote Republican yet?Things dont suck enough yet for them.But it will.
