  • Keep the revolution alive!

    "He had discovered a great law of human action, without knowing it - namely that in order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain." 
      ~ Mark Twain, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.

    Ah yes.  The first days of school.  The most important days.  Days where I break my new young'ens and try to make them into good citizens of our fair but overpopulated and under-worked People's Republic of California.  Keep 'em off welfare.  Keep 'em from having babies at 14.  Keep 'em from tagging up the place.  Keep 'em from stabbing, stepping, shooting, and generally killing each other.

    Trying to find the decent bourgeois and the rare elite camouflaged in the mass of perma-proles.  Trying to fulfill the politicians' and the state's wet dream that everyone deserves a college education.  Trying to make a difference for those who want it.

    I try to keep my biases under control, but there are days when I can't help but think that maybe we should send more of our under-worked, self-indulgent, trouble-making, violent, and lazy proletariat youth to Iraq.  Not for us to win the war, but for them to die so our quality of living can still remain high.  Winning the war is a bonus.  After all isn't that the real reason why wars are fought anyway?  To keep our quality of life high?

    We make our money by sending our poor people to rape and pillage their poor people (some rich if we can get  our hands on them) and those that survive bring back the wealth so we can be rich--with less poor people and the enemy's wealth.  It's a win win.

    But then I think that we'd have a lot more productive proles if we got rid of our dole (welfare) so they have to get off their asses and work like the rest of us bourgeois.  Why do we have to carry all the burdens they've heaped on themselves from their ignorance, lack of self-motivation, and lack of civic & personal responsibility?  If there's going to be welfare, I think it should be for the hardworking middle-class people that have run into unforseen problems.  Not for the proles who keep popping out babies like a vending machine does for Cheetos.

    I could tell you the story of my buddy Trevor who's another hard-working teacher.  His hobby of stock car racing got him almost killed and he had to be in the hospital for almost a year.  When he and his family ran out of money for the medical expenses they went to the government for help.  Mind you he had a job, a kid, and a wife and two cars.  They told him he was:

    1) the wrong ethnicity
    2) too rich (2 cars)
    3) he didn't have enough babies
    4) he had a job--nevermind he was in the hospital

    So the bottom line.  He had to sell his cars, move back home with his parents with wife and kid and start popping out the babies and lose his job in order to get money.  He also had to stay unemployed in order to receive any aid.  That was the advice the government clerk told him. Told him mind you.

    What kind of message does this send to hard working citizens--good proles (uncommon) & bourgeois?  The lazy proles?
