A Chicken Is Not Pillage

People Will Pay For What They Want

Even though some poet twit will think this evidence that I favor the story of Game of Thrones, this is exactly what I was writing about.

Well Color Me Surprised.

Wow.  It looks like Jullian Assange lied his ass off after all.  Who woulda thunk it!?! 

"WE Must Think Of The Children!"

No.

No, "We" really mustn't.   If there is one political argument that drives me crazy with it's stupidity, that would be the one.  "We must think of the children".  Sentimental, manipulative, ridiculous.   We must!  No.  NO.  I don't have to think of your children.

Y'see, I've done my job.  I've tried much of what I can to leave a better world to those who come after me.  (95% of those who claim they've done everything they can are probably lying.)  I've supported and voted for those who seem more concerned about people than they are money or status.  I've supported almost every effort for equal opportunity and help for those in need.  I've rejected those who tell me that Mother Gaia is more important than the folks who inhabit this rock in space.  I've been as informed as possible about life needs, human, animal, plant and the rock we share.  I've studied morality that I might be the best for those around me.

But still, there are those who expect me to accept responsibility for their failures, or their lack of will.  Here's the point, folks:  I owe nothing to your children.  I owe nothing to the planet.  I owe nothing to the future.  I pay my debts everyday.  So, those of you wailing about what I owe your children, you tell me:

Do you support those who want you to hate public workers as tax leeches?   Do you believe in welfare queens?  Do you think tax cuts for the rich are a way to help your children?  Do you support wars to kill brown people half way across the world?  Do you think unions are 'something for nothing' scheme?  Do you value the environment above the people who live and breath and work in it?  Do you value the people who live and breath in the environment more than the environment in which they live and breath?  Do you fear the national debt?  Do you not fear the national debt?  Do you watch FOX news?  Do you vote Republicant, and hate the tax-and-spend liberals?  Do you not vote thinking "both parties are the same"?

Then don't tell me that I should give a shit about your fucking kids.  I'm not responsible for the world that you are leaving them.  I've done my part, and they're not my kids.  You're the one's who fucked up.  Don't tell me I should care for your little snowflakes.  I don't, and I won't.  The point is, I shouldn't.
