THINGS NOBODY ELSE will say

There are often stupidities that are noticed, and unspoken.  Continuing with our example of Food Stamps:

When they were stamps, and therefore, their use easily noticed  at check-out, to buy lobster was often viewed as a sign of how the money was being wasted on “luxuries.”

Curious thing: Those who made the comments about lobster were generally overweight and had, or were on the way to developing, coronary diseases related to LDL & fat intake.  They would make the comments with nice FAT slabs of PORK in their cart.

Another curious thing:  They would never make those comments when the Food Stamps went to buy pork – even though the pork was generally more expensive  than the lobster they were criticizing.  In other words, it was that the Food Stamps were being used for purchasing good tasting healthier and cheaper alternatives.  They were also being used to support an industry recognized around the world – after all, who every hear of a State Name proudly associated with a Pig product?  Maine Lobster, Idaho Potato and … where does that heart destroying, LDL saturated, pig product come from?  Who boasts of inducing the heart disease that is  killing people – what state?

We abhor anyone who is responsible in their choices and respectful of their own bodies.  It is for that reason that we make fun of those who are vegan, or, God Forbid, vegetarian (oh right, the western God didn’t forbid it, He commanded that “the fruit of the trees shall be your meat”) or like their vitamin or mineral supplements.

OH WELL, nobody cares what the Bible says.  At least they don’t care about the half which has the laws – unless they can corrupt them.  They LOVE the second half – where all the laws are set aside.  But even there, they can’t seem to be consistent in their reliance upon “faith”, the hypocrites need to run to the law to justify their bigotry and hatred.  When it suits them, they even run to it justify for health – when the Faith doctrine of St Augustan makes it clear that it is the soul and not the body which must be tended to – pork sucking hypocrites.

We love stupidity so much we want our nation to live in it – and will work hard to outdo all other nations in proving we can become the most ignorant nation on earth.  Doubt that?  Which do we cut first: Our Armies and ability to destroy whole regions of the planet with nuclear weapons, or Education and Health Care – both of which make our young better defenders of our freedoms for longer periods of time?
