What the Tea Party Really Thinks About Average Americans

Listen up average people, and by that I mean those who make about 100,000 a year or less. Those that make more, may stop reading now.
Here's the honest thing that doesn't get discussed by political conservative types, such as the Tea Party Express. Why they really don't want to pay federal taxes...It is because they think you are a loser. That's right folks--incompetent, unable to be rich, lazy loser.

I have been reading up on conservative theory, and the pro-industry, anti-tax types all share a similar belief. The rich are simply better. They are smarter, more able bodied and hyper-active. This is the way it should be and it's not their problem if you are not like them. So they have no reason to spend even one dime on your silly little public schools (there's always private school for the rich), Medicaid or Medicare (heck, they are already covered) or any other stupid public project. Like public transportation- (get a car you lazy s.o.b.) They simply feel that when they are taxed, they are being robbed for the worst possible reason--keeping all these dumb losers on life support ("why don't you just go die somewhere" is more acceptable)

If you really knew what the rich think about everyone else, you just wouldn't vote Tea Party--no way. They hate you, but are smart enough to recruit you for their own cause. Make you shoot yourself in the foot.
So what if you were born disabled, low IQ, into an abusive home, whatever--that's your stupid problem, not theirs. And granted some people do make it out of horrible or even just plain simple circumstances to become great and wealthy people in America, no question. But many more just do not. And this my friends, is what the rich consider your moral shortcoming.

If you don't believe me, just read something like "Atlas Shrugged" from beginning to end--it will take a good year, but you can see the hate & loathing towards those who have less money. (and Reagan was a fan of Ayn Rand) You betcha! (ever wonder why the richer Sarah Palin gets, the angrier her rhetoric?)

The Right to Liberty and the Pursuit of Craziness

I am always trying to figure out what these "conservatives" are really thinking. Their distrust of government (except to blow up other countries) and their bizarre ideology that somehow people can be trusted to do the right thing. Do they really feel humans are that awesome and smart? Or do they only want to protect their own large sums of money so they get everyone all jazzed up about taxes?? (I can't help thinking that Rush simply wants the poor and paranoid to protect his own wealth by staging anti-Obama rallies)

One theory of mine is that many right-winged politicians are simply not well traveled. When you argue that people can make good financial decisions without government legislation--they haven't opened their eyes to the incredible corruption that happens in countries without such regulation. (Don't they know people are greedy little pigs?)

Even Ron Paul, who has some good ideas, but also a few nutty ones, has a silly thought that doctors would uphold the Hippocratic oath to provide free medical care if we eliminated Medicare/Medicaid. It is certainly an interesting theory that Government programs have eliminated personal responsibility towards the poor. However, in this day and age people are definitely more greedy. If you reversed the clock I just don't see people going back to the days of yore when they looked out for each other. It is a fact that the higher your income level, the less you actually help others, volunteer or donate.....

My personal experience growing up in NJ was that people were horrid to one another. Then moving to Alaska I almost fell over how much people trusted and helped one another. My explanation for this difference: the less populated an area, the nicer the people. We get cranky living on top of one another...Just like gerbils attacking their young in a crowded cage...
So for now Government is what we have to protect us from ourselves.
