Self-made still matters

OK, I await explanations as to why the immigrant crack down is wrong. Please explain why someone comes here illegally, and our government is to welcome them with open arms AND THEN support them. Give them more benefits than the American taxpayer. Why the dedicated headlong rush to make America less Caucasian? Do you that think that way not see what happens when people of color are in charge? There is huge difference between being sightless and buying one’s head in the sand. The stupidity of some battles me. I’m all for giving someone a hand up BUT giving a handout coupled with no contribution needed is asinine. Bleeding hearts content to “the from the rich and give to the poor benefits society only in fairy tales. That is a huge part of society’s problems now. Our children, instead of striving to be contributors sitting upon a fence post waiting for Mommy and Daddy to die. That may be the biggest difference between my generation and today. When I was young my parents struggled to pay their bills, there was there was no-extra money NOR an inheritance waiting. We had to make it on our own. We had to have jobs and work, unlike this new generation. I’m not sure my kids would agree.
The fable of Robin Hood was just that, a fable! Yes the disparity now is huge, people see wealth and fail to realize the perspiration and risk it takes to make it. The inactivity drove me crazy. The chuckle I get watching the cries of tax the rich, are amusing. Everyone, if you ask a wish, wants to be rich BUT fail to realize that doesn’t happen overnight. I sacrificed a lot to be comfortable. I’m certainly not rich!
The Bernie Sanders of the world have lived off the taxpayers ALL their lives. Contributing nothing but hot air and envy. Want to be rich, start a business, invest for the long haul, save, but don’t depend on others, Envy and greed, the haul marks of a dying society. Other people’s money, the answer to those that sit and wait. The Minnesota fraud situation should show you that there is a segment of government that are outright thieves. I don’t believe it’s only the democrats! Government seems to live for itself and no other! George Orwell’s 1984 is quickly becoming reality.
Perhaps reading what the new Virginia governor just did will awaken people to the fact that government only cares about itself. Research it when you can, It will sicken you! Then worry about the 2026 mid terms. IF thy e democrats take either the house OR Senate we will be in for a rough 2 years, perhaps forever!

Just those two quotations from your bitter spiel tell us a lot about your attitudes to other people.

George Orwell’s 1984 is quickly becoming reality.

That's right. Orwell warned about 'newspeak' disguising falsehood as truth and the danger of a personality cult.

I have every sympathy for a country (including my own) where we can't find decent politicians to inspire and manage a diverse nation. I also have to fight against complete cynicism where everyone and everything is hopeless. Just because certain groups want to blame other groups for everything that's wrong, doesn't mean I have to join in.

From your point of view perhaps you need to find some honorable Republicans to regain the moral right to govern...but that will take a clear out of the current lot first. Perhaps honorable Democrat (or Independents?) would be best in the near future? Remember, Winston Smith and his associates left it too late to rebel.
