| Steyn: We're too broke to be this stupid |

Beleaguered taxpayers may finally put a stop to the sheer waste of government spendingThe green jobs, the gay parades, the jihadist welfare queens, the Greek public sector unions, all have to be paid for by a shrinking base of contributing workers whose children and grandchildren will lead poorer and meaner lives because of the fecklessness of government. The social compact of the postwar era cannot hold. Across the developed world, a beleaguered middle class is beginning to understand that it's no longer that rich. At some point, it will look at the sheer waste of government spending, the other shoe will drop, and it will decide that it no longer wishes to be that stupid. |

| #1 the modern progressive has no urge to emulate those Victorian social reformers who tramped the streets of English provincial cities looking for fallen women to rescue. All he wants to do is ensure that the fallen women donÂ’t fall anywhere near him. We have prostitutes plying their trade outside Wal-Mart locally. Somehow what these fallen women do is more acceptable than what the liberals do in the name of feel-good, do nothing guilt assuaging phony policies where everyone is robbed of their wealth. At least with these prostitutes you know, for the most part, the risks involved and what you are getting for your money. I heard Hillary talking about wealth re-distribution the other day. Obama has also preached wealth re-distribution. Why is it that these Marxists are so ready to spread around everyone else's wealth as they busily go about amassing their own personal fortunes-- but seldom re-distributing their own wealth? Hypocrites! |
