Looking Glass World

Welcome to the Front Porch!! If you haven't registered your opinion at our one-question poll, you'll have the opportunity at the end of this article!!

Meanwhile, we live in magical times when up is down, freedom is slavery, productivity is rapacious, and we have "rights" to many things that didn't exist fifty years ago. But are we having fun yet?

In Our Looking Glass World:



---Taking money from a Bill Gates and giving it to a bureaucrat will stimulate creation of jobs

---Korans can be flushed down toilets

---Environmentally friendly light bulbs that require Hazmat for disposal

---The value of a person's contribution to the world is inversely proportional to what other people are willing to pay for that contribution

---2,500 page omnibus bills should be passed first, disclosed later

---Never ask the people successfully dealing with issues in a given enterprise on a daily basis for their input on policy

---A tinhorn group of 50 burning half a dozen Korans merits more concentrated attention than placing a war memorial for murderers of 3,000 2 blocks from the scene

---Reading, history, and economics are "niche interests" in the "education" community

---Innovation happens at the expense of those who don't innovate

---Your property and money belong to your "protectors" and you keep a portion of it if it suits them

---Other people are in charge of your "charity"

---Radio commentators are man's worst enemy

---"Congress" and the Executive Branch are the overseers of your morality

---The "law" depends on who you are

---Trashing a meeting place is not a graphic illustration of character and is not news, nor is cleaning up after ourselves a demonstration of social responsibility and personal integrity

---Mosquito nets cure malaria

---The millions who've died from malaria are worth the price of saving the lives of the worms in our apples

---Logic? What's that?

---Destruction is creative

---The rich will only "save" their money

---If you're among the "poor" in America, things will be better for you under global communism

---Stealing from their membership's retirment funds only means Union leaders put the interests of their rank and file first

---"Borrowing" from future generations isn't theft

---One sheet of toilet paper?
