A democracy will continue to exist up until<br />the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous<br />gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority<br />always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from<br />the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally<br />collapse over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a<br />dictatorship.<br /><br />The Obituary follows:<br /><br />It doesn't hurt to read this several times. <br />Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in <br />St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning<br />the last Presidential election: <br /><br />Number of States won by: Obama: 19 McCain: 29 <br />Square miles of land won by: Obama: 580,000 McCain: 2,427,000 <br />Population of counties won by: Obama: 127 million McCain: 143 million <br />Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1 <br /><br />Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory<br />McCain won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens<br />of the country. <br /><br />Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low<br />income tenements and living off various forms of government<br />welfare..." And, of course, Zuma’s mass support comes from poor/uneducated citizens who are largely in the rural districts/living off 'child support' and State Social Pensions.<br /><br />Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the<br />"complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of<br />democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population<br />already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.<br /><br />If Congress/Parliament of RSA grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million<br />criminal invaders called illegals - and they vote - then we can say<br />goodbye to the USA/RSA in fewer than five years. <br /><br />If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message.<br /><br />If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how<br />much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our<br />freedom..<br /><br />This is truly scary<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
