One million recs for that entire post, GZ. You absolutely nailed it, my friend.

Regarding this comment: "The folks who are getting the free stuff don't like the folks who are paying for the free stuff because the folks who are paying for the free stuff can no longer afford to pay for both the free stuff and their own stuff."

Absolutely. It goes beyond even that. By nature, human beings, indeed all animals, have an innate and completely natural drive to provide for ourselves, our families, and even those who share DNA similarities with us. It's a natural, genetic drive.

All forms of leftism -- all forms! -- severely interrupt that natural drive by the use of force! In nature, if I were to see a neighbor in distress, and if I instinctively perceived that it would be to my benefit (and the benefit of my kind) to help him/her, I would do so naturally and instinctively. I would not require the government to force me to do so at gunpoint to help him. I would simply do it based on instinct. In contrast, if I instinctively perceived a threat to me and my kind, I would not help him. If the threat were great enough, I might even help the process of his demise along. That is the way of nature; natural selection.

The government (rooted in all forms of leftisms), forces us at gunpoint to go against nature. It forces us to artificially prop up those who pose a lethal threat to us, our families, our kind, and our way of life. Only White societies engage in this self-destructive behavior. Why? I think it is because there are a few White predators at the very top of the elite class who drive this behavior. They view all of us as sheep and cattle to be used for their own needs.

That's the really scary part, GZ. What if it is completely natural for them to use us all like that to benefit themselves, even at the expense of their own people? Is that the apex of human evolution? In other words, have they evolved beyond the point of developing a new instinct prey on everyone, thus keeping us mired in so much conflict and turmoil that it is impossible to organize and mount a resistance against them?

and it won't be fixed in the rationale way with belt tightening, that would be too unpopular! Want to know what they are choosing instead and don't even know it? Whole rotten structure finally collapses from too few people to soak anymore and capital flight and nobody wanted to loan this country another dime. Then what? They will still demand free stuff and when their tit is cut off, there will be civil unrest, followed by people forming into groups who routinely beat each other up (see Germany in the 1920s) followed by arming of groups and ultimately civil war and whoever wins that decides the new structure and it's just about always a dictator/warlord with the most powerful group of armed people that wins.

Leading off Wednesday's NBC Nightly News, anchor Brian Williams could barely conceal his contempt for Attorney General Eric Holder being held in contempt by the House Government Oversight Committee: "Washington has blown up into a caustic partisan fight....And for those not following the complexities of all of it, it just looks like more of our broken politics and vicious fights now out in the open."

NBC News should be included in the category of "those not following the complexities of all of it" when it comes to covering the Fast and Furious gun running scandal at the heart of the contempt charge. Wednesday night marked the first full story the network offered on the subject, having completely ignored the controversy until June 12, with a 30-second mention of the failed operation at the end of a report.

Despite Williams's dismissive introduction on Wednesday, the report that followed by correspondent Kelly O'Donnell was fairly straightforward, explaining: "House Republicans say they have been waiting for eight months to get documents from the Attorney General and only today the White House stepped in. A key committee took an important step toward sending a message to the Department of Justice."

The ABC and CBS evening newscasts covered the contempt vote as well, however, neither saw fit to make it the lead story. It was particularly stunning that ABC's World News decided to lead with two reports on the weather before getting to the growing Obama administration scandal.
