^Possibly now the steely missiles of reality will finally become too menacing for the la-la's to ignore. When one's environment becomes regulated, the oppression of that regulation becomes stifling, ask any survivor of communist Russia. The rules are coming and the freedom we all grew up with is in danger of being reduced to fond memories for those who can still remember.

We are supposed to be a self governed nation. Instead we must now choose between two destinies, that of the democratic vision of deciding who your neighbor will be, every facet of life being metered, regulated and dispensed by the federal government. Or, the republican vision, which is to remain free and hold the federal government to be responsible to the people. An equal people.

Our power to make choices is almost gone. If we don't get this thing turned around, regular Joes are going to find themselves facing jail time for non-compliance to the tolerance rules that are coming. Ready for your federal government to aggressively regulate you at the social level? It's coming.

The people's pantry, full of seemingly inexhaustible freebies doled out to the lazy and listless, now features many shelves that are bare. It will all come to an end soon enough. Last call for sanity and responsible life styles is the mid-terms of 2014.
