Let's Grow Up - Part 3 - Robin Hoods Big Brother

Science fiction literature has always taken us on fantastic voyages of the imagination. The most memorable and effective of such literature use truth as its foundation and oppose it by taking dangerous ideas to the most extreme logical conclusions. This is the strength of George Orwells classic "1984". The iconic head of the fictional world power state of Oceania,"Big Brother", was always watching to make sure that you maintained the ideals of the "Party". Thought-crimes where not tolerated and severely punished. In our real world we have created the technology to approximate with amazing similarity the capacity for the state or any collective to track our every move and characterize and categorize our individual ideologies, and material and social preferences.

He said to them, 'Why are you standing here all day long without work?' " 'No one has hired us,' they answered him. "He said to them, 'Work in my vineyard.'

Let's Grow Up

Hosea 4:6 " My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge :" The awe and devotion of both the state run media and its audience to the Obama administrations Robin Hood like antics is truly disturbing. It is not the fact that this administration misses no opportunity to expand its tax base and broaden its scope of power that is disturbing. What concerns the conservative patriot today is the number of child like devotees following merrily along behind the pied piper, little knowing or caring about the peril that lies ahead. What has bewitched these followers? How has their capacity to reason been handicapped? Why are they so easily deceived? Many of Obamas followers, who consider themselves intellectual contemporaries, have worked tirelessly for this very day. Finally, one of their own, the product of an educational system totally enamored by and directed toward the creation of a socialist utopia, has assumed the mantel of national leadership. They, along with mainstream state r
