I think the best response is for people to become aware of the heinous abuses of the "indentured servitude" program that brought so many Europeans here. There were MILLIONS who were worked to death, or never let out of bondage, or simply never given compensation promised them. I suggest that every European person in America who had family here before 1850 is most likely a descendant of someone brought over under conditions of "indentured servitude", and are therefore due compensation with interest for the lives of their ancestors who were so brutally used and betrayed.

You see, if we can get everybody in America suing everybody else then nobody has to actually work making anything anymore and we can all live in paradise!

After watching the early madness of the French Revolution first-hand, Jefferson returned here and told friends that if the socialism then ravaging Europe ever came to our shores, two things would happen:
1. We would soon become a highly contentious and litigious people as we shouldered one another out of the way to get "OURS" from the public trough and
2.the public trough would quickly become empty.

We have largely emptied the public trough, burst through its rotted bottom and tussle in the mud and slime beneath as we thrash about wildly in search of a PRIVATE trough to plunder.

And it may be too late to turn this thing around.

Pray for our grandchildren. We're leaving them a MESS far worse than that we inherited from OUR parents and grandparents.
