Personal responsibility? Nah. Just let the government take care of you. Let the government be in charge of your retirement savings. Sure, nothing will be there for you when you retire, but don’t let that little detail bother you. The government will take away earnings from those who have worked hard to achieve greater rewards. Then those funds will be given to you so that you can continue slacking. And are you wondering what kind of life you get without personal responsibility? Well, we have one example right here.
Black U.S. AIDS rates now rival those in some African countries. Read the details here. Do you suppose that a lack of personal responsibility might have something to do with that? Relying on the government to educate your kids about AIDS obviously isn’t sufficing. That’s where solid parenting comes in. If you’re not already doing that, now just might be a good time to look into it.
One would think that given the wide array of professions represented on Jeopardy!, eventually a psychic would show up. I’ve never seen one. Seems like a psychic would have an advantage over the other contestants. But even if the soi-disant psychic promised he wouldn’t use his powers during the show, should there not have been a psychic or two over the many years of Jeopardy! episodes? Why is that business so statistically underrepresented on this particular game show?
My crystal ball says that psychics suck at memorizing world capitals.
Is there ever a reason for us to care what was said on The View today? These ladies are not exactly intellectual heavyweights (though some of them might just be heavyweights). Their paralogical arguments for/against various causes are hardly worth repeating. Yet I continually see video coverage of what happened on that show when I check major news sites. Meanwhile, great thinkers who opine on the issues of the day are often neglected by the media. What am I missing here?
