I attended the Escondido Tea Party today and after some debate with a few people about it online I had a few thoughts. In relation to a supposed survey by The Times that stated that people hate Socialism and yet desire medicare and social security when they retire, I wrote:
People aren't stupid. If they can get something for free they will usually go for it regardless of their principles. The problem is that we all continue to accept free "benefits" at the expense of others. If you work diligently in order to pay someone else to live off of you, you will no longer work so hard...especially if you can live off of another person's diligence! The enticing lie behind Socialism is that it sounds good in theory but destroys the spirit in practice.
