I've seen these floating around here and there, but my mother in law sent them together in a recent email (she's awesome, BTW). Why does no one bring this stuff up during an election?
These three statements tell you a lot about our government and our
culture:
1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few
lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions
of a few lunatics. Funny how that works.
And another statement for consideration--
2. We constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out
of money. How come we never hear about welfare running out of money?
What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but
the second didn't.
Finally ..
3. The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount
of free Meals and Food Stamps ever --- to 47 million people, as of the
most recent figures available in 2013.
Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S.
Department of the Interior, asks us "Please Do Not Feed the Animals."
The stated reason for this policy is because "The animals will grow
dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."
