The biggest problems plaguing Americans? We just aren’t selfish enough!

The biggest problems plaguing Americans? We just aren’t selfish enough!

I’m having a hard time figuring out if this is a joke or not. But considering this was a recommended diary at DailyKos, there’s a good possibility the author was dead serious.

You pay all these taxes but you don’t want anything in return for it. You don’t want free health care. You don’t want time off of work. You don’t want anything. You’re not selfish enough.

You get mad when someone is taking welfare and sitting on their ass. What have you got against sitting on your ass? The whole point behind having a government and paying taxes is to have more time to sit on your ass. That’s what technology is for. You Americans work longer than anyone, pay all these taxes, make all these robots, and then not only don’t you sit on your ass, but you get mad when anyone else does. You’re f*cking crazy.

You aren’t selfish enough. That’s your whole problem. In a regular country, if anyone tried to take away health care and free time, there would be riots in the streets. Why? Because people want free health care and free time. That’s all. They are selfish.

That’s why people in other countries have a goverment. That’s why they fund all the robot-making. I can’t for the life of me tell why you have a government and do all the robot-making. Near as I can tell, you have machines that do more work than you just so you can be homeless and die. Which is the wrong kind of ass-sitting.

You say, “people on welfare are lazy.” What the hell is wrong with lazy? Do you want lazy people to starve to death? Don’t you want to be more lazy? Don’t you want a hobby? Why not?

The genius of the left, folks. Laziness is good and working hard is bad.

Of course, with this mindset, we’d never have invented electricity, or made it to the moon, or created the internet, or any of the other incredible technological advances mankind has enjoyed. Without the enterprising spirit that Americans are famous for, where would we be? If everyone’s ultimate goal was just to sit around on their asses and do nothing, then nothing would ever get accomplished.

And to wrap up, I’ll let John and Right Wing News have the last word:

The reality is that this country can’t afford to pay for the government services it’s handing out now. So, the whole idea that we can receive even more while most of the country kicks back in a hammock and lets someone else do all the work is a fraud — and it’s a fraud at the heart of liberalism.

    Yes, dammit! I DO want lazy people to starve to death! It’s better for the gene pool!

    Ye gods, I would hardly have credited someone with that much stupidity if I hadn’t gone and read it for myself. As usual, I came out of Daily Kos feeling like I needed to wash my hands several times..

  • Andrew says:

    Finally the libs are being honest. Thats all I can say

  • Steve L. says:

    I’m too busy working for a living to have time to kick back.

  • Being homeless is “the wrong kind of ass sitting” but living a life of leisure is presumably the right kind. Wow. Sounds like multi-level marketing to me.

    I’ve skimmed you five times or more today, looking for more posts since the NOLA one (which I linked). I forgot to scroll down and now I’m kicking myself. This is pure comedy gold.

  • Oh and by the way, before I forget, this…

    The above is an embellished version of something a Canadian friend said to me recently.

    …convinces me to vote a big fat “Nay” on the “is this a joke” question. Not all canucks are like this, but I’ve talk to some that are. There’s a mindset out there, Cassy…

    I wonder if the goober who wrote that ever wondered if everyone is sitting on their ass, who’s paying taxes to support all this ass sitting?

    Let’s see here….
    Top 1% income bracket-US$364,000 and up, (highest rate 35%)pays for 40% of the gum’mint “programs”
    The top 50% (average-and above)pays a total of 97%.

    Half of the country works diligently, with an eye on merited prosperity, while the OTHER half sits at keyboards, or travels to protest gatherings, holding “Capitalism Sucks” signs for an occupation.

    Judging by the recent efforts of ICE, there ought to be quite a few
    REAL unskilled labor jobs opening up in the American food processing industry. Judging by the recent recognition of the 2nd Amendment by the SCOTUS, welfare-to-work seems like the only repugnant alternitive. There’s only so many “Humanities” teaching positions available to replace the current crop of holistic wellness basket weavers opting-out to live on their Union pensions, (excuse me, HOW MUCH?) funded by the dwindling number of current “tuition” spenders and taxpayer funded “investment”.
