Jonah, you are so right. Western cultures have become sick and unproductive with the new Entitlement Mentality encouraged by Obama's handouts and political correctnness. In England several years ago, two Community Constables, a man and a woman, stood and literally watched a 6 year old boy drown. When asked why they hadnt saved the boy, they said Health and Safey laws forbade it as they were no thus trained. No public outcry followed. Two years ago in London an old man was run down by a hit and run driver, as the man lay in the street still alive, anothe car drove right over him and this one killed him. It, too, just drove on. Speaking of the fact that Obamacare will end like the National Health System in Democratic Socialist England, people die daily in the rationing, negligent and unaccountable government run system. A 22 year old just died of dehydration because no one bothered to give him a drip and when he called his mother and the police, nurses simply sneered and said he was fine. Until a doctor was dragged to the boy by his mother, then help came, but he soon died for lack of a glass of water. I could go on. Just read the English papers regarding the devastation and deaths caused by government unaccountability in the so called free health system. I am an artist and poet and am regularly held in contempt by other artists for my outspoken lack of political correctness in my art works. As if creative people are just begging to be shackled by big government and silenced by left wing political correctness. Where are the true creatives who rebel against bureaurcats, big govt., self-censorship and all the paraphenailia of fascism?!
