http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Wl5qRq0hgE&feature=relatedThis is horrible! What has America become? Somebody gets hit by a car and nobody even bothers to help him!
Cars on the road drive by just to take a peek, then keep going.
Bystanders group up to look at what happened... the victim seems to have cracked his skull and and is bleeding... yet nothing is done. No one rushes to check his condition or even to call an ambulance!
They all wait until the police car pulls up and takes care of the situation. But that's a sad display of how America has become. The morals aren't there, the citizenship--no one wants to be a good samaritan?
It's gotten so off that neighbors don't even know their own neighbors anymore! We preach and we preach, but we don't act as we say... its just really really sad.
It is about time that America again look to regain its compassion for others, or else we no longer will be that Free Country, where our civil liberties are handed to us on a silver platter, more or less. We sure take many things for granted, sometimes disgusting me.
HOW TO CATCH WILD PIGS A Chemistry professor in a large college had exchange students in the class.
One day in class, the Professor noticed one young man (exchange student) who kept rubbing his back, and stretching as if his back hurt.
The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist government.
In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked, 'Do you know how to catch wild pigs?'
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said this was no joke. 'You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side. The pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept
their captivity.
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening to America . The government keeps pushing us toward socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops , welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms - just a little at a time.
One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free Lunch! Also, a politician will never provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.
In this "very important" election year, listen closely to what the candidates are promising you - just maybe you will be able to tell who is about to slam the gate on America.
"A government big enough to give you everything you want, is big enough to take away everything you have."
