GIVE ME SOME SPACE

Without the space between the notes there would be no music. Without the spaces between words we would have no meaning. These are good examples of how dead air or filler helps to create beautiful works of art. This is not true in society. Sociologically speaking, we have too much FILLER, dead air, and INERT ingredients in our society. When HALF of the potential tax payers in America pay ZERO taxes...there's a problem with the system. These folks have no SKIN in the GAME. They have nothing to lose by their choices and everything (free stuff) to gain. So the system is like that mythical invention the Perpetual Motion Machine, self oiling, and self perpetuating, and ultimately self-defeating.

The only hope for America in this upcoming election is that the proletariat is so wrapped up in watching American Idol, or the Bachelorette, that they forget to go to the polls. But if they did all vote, they would surely all vote Democrat. Not that I am in love with the Republican party, but get serious out there, if you have a job, had a job, or will ever get a job, why would you want to vote for a party where their platform is free everything for anyone whether you work or not, whether you belong in this country legally or not, and whether you ever contributed anything to our society other than whining for more. I understand that labor union bosses and politicians are in one another's pockets. What I find difficult to fathom is how a hard working man of any color, who puts in 40 hours a week at a construction site can vote to elect a politician who wants him to send part of his paycheck into the IRS so the government can give it to another man who couldn't bother to get out of bed to look for a job. Ever.

Let's say you think of America as a product, a vitamin tablet for example. Notice the ingredients listed on the label. there are active ingredients that make you healthier and are the reason you bought the product. Then there are inactive or INERT ingredients. Leaving the election in the hands of the inert members of our society who contribute nothing to our country is a PILL that's too hard to SWALLOW.
