How Our Enemies Will Defeat Us:
Why is America the most obese society on earth? We are
entitled and lazy, arrogant and demanding. We want more than we need, better
than anyone else’s, and we want it faster! Which is true of man since the
beginning of time; we’ve evolved… We’ve discovered ways to be more efficient,
in turn we’ve become more lazy and complacent. Our government needed to be more
efficient so that they would still make all the profits. There’s a price to be
paid one way or another.
Our society teaches us to pay other people to do the jobs that we don’t want to
do: Cleaning, Landscaping, Painting, Farming, and oh yeah, we don’t want to pay
them much. People come in from other countries and live here together and pool
their money so they can survive and it’s FAR better than where they came from. We
call them animals and we bitch because they are taking our jobs. The truth is
we ARE NOT willing to live like they live, we ARE NOT willing to work as hard
as they do, and we ARE NOT willing to get paid what they get paid. Americans
are spoiled and entitled. Jobs need to be done, what we can’t afford to do in-house,
we simply outsource.
In America it’s all about smart this and HD that, Wii this and iThat. None of
these gadgets are manufactured here; in fact almost nothing is manufactured
here. So we are already giving millions of dollars to foreign countries that
may or may not have our best interest at heart. We think because we have “trade
agreements” they won’t attack us.
They are attacking us. We’re too fat, dumb, and happy to
know it, but they are.
Who drives 10 miles to run 5 miles on a treadmill (designed in another country
with parts from another country, assembled here) where we can listen to our foreign
gadget play digital music and wear our brightly colored foreign-made name brand
sneakers and grab a bucket of GMO take-out for the family on the way home?!? We are so lazy we need a phone that can do
everything but wipe our ass for us. But we complain about privacy and pretend
to worry about “big brother”. We haven’t got up to change a channel in 35 years
and we wonder why our ass has worn a wider divot in the couch cushion.
We are addicted to instant gratification, our muscles are atrophied from lack
of use, our necks are sore from texting and we have carpal tunnel from
repetitive button pushing. We whine about the aches and pains, but we aren’t
willing to actually do anything about it if it requires rigorous movement,
exercise or further absence of our almighty convenience.
So we take a pill.
Another product not manufactured here. This pill is promised
to take your pain away. Again, there is a price for everything. Oh, you’re
suddenly feeling sad? Try this pill, it will alleviate the sadness, and this
one is for the suicidal thoughts associated with taking the pill for sadness,
and don’t worry if it gives you muscle pain we have another pain pill for that.
Now your legs are restless and your mouth is dry? Take this, it may cause
hallucinations, so don’t drink on it, you might have a psychotic episode, but
if you do, we have the remedy for that as well.
“Oh so you’re addicted to the pills? The pharmaceutical company assured us they
use only the finest opium from Afghanistan… I can’t see how that could happen,
well since you’re addicted now, we aren’t going to give you anymore”.
Now you are physically withdrawing and the pain has taken over and you will do
ANYTHING to get a pill. Word is they are $50 on the street; let’s find one or
two… A couple days later you’re sick again, the pain is worse, let’s get 4 this
time… now they are too expensive. The guy with the pills says, “hey, I can’t
help you with those pills anymore, but give this a shot, you only need a tiny bit;
I’ll let you try this bag for free”. Hello Heroin. The progression takes over
like a rapidly multiplying parasitic infection.
Incidentally, middle school and high school kids aren’t just smoking pot
anymore. It’s too hard to hide from parents who are well versed in 60’s, 70’s,
80’s and 90’s life. Heroin is cheaper and easier to get and to hide… It’s not
just in the inner city, it’s everywhere… 14 year olds are giving birth to
heroin addicted babies and those babies are being treated with phenobarbital. Once
an addict, always an addict; there’s no cure, only treatment.
While one large portion of our Nation is distracted from reality by the most cutting
edge gadget, system, game, or device and can’t fathom wasting the effort to walk
across the street to a neighbor’s house for coffee; another portion of our
Nation is systematically being taken out by a whole new ideal in chemical
warfare… created and funded by terrorists, foreign and DOMESTIC.
As an American you have these rights:
If you don’t want to work, you don’t have to, if you don’t want to feel, you
don’t have to, if you don’t want to try, you don’t have to.
In other countries; if you don’t work, you don’t eat.
If any of these other countries decided to attack us today do you think we
the people would stand a chance?
Or would you go about your day with confidence, thinking, ‘that’s what the military is there for”? The very military who can’t get adequate care through the VA, the very soldiers who haven’t slept a solid night since their first deployment. The same military men and women treated with the same pills for sadness, and psychiatric issues and pain; becoming addicted themselves?
Perhaps another day with our heads in the sand will make it all go away and the
internet will bring more celebrity gossip and grumpy cat meme’s with improved
speed and bandwidth for us all.
