Hey, Norway, Germany, England, Sweden, Canada, and the others... how's that socialism thing working for you? Oh, your citizens are provided with health care and various other services that make life better? I see. Well, that sucks, doesn't it. We can't have people that need to choose between food, shelter, and medical care actually getting their broken legs fixed. Psh. Freeloaders.
If they wanted to have their broken legs fixed, they'd have gone to Business school and they'd have a better job. Amirite?
How is such a faulty understanding of reality both so popular and so easily spread? Would any of these protesters, if they found themselves without a job and with a broken leg say to themselves, "self ... we don't have private medical coverage, and that's okay. we're just going to sit here and be alright with that." No. They'd be the first ones screaming that the government 'owes them' some kind of medical coverage.
This level of un-thought-through conservatism must be some kind of neurological disorder. Seldom do you see people so convinced of their message screaming with spittle in the corners of their mouths outside of the insane asylums.
In my opinion, someone should throw these people into the sun. Or shoot them in the face. In my opinion.
