This scenario fits the whole country. Look at the number of idiots that voted for Obama. Then Congress seats half of the crooks on Capitol Hill in Obama’s Cabinet. Americans cannot reason through a simple problem. All they know how to do is ask for something free.

So, between the lines, Mark Sanford might be correct in the asssertation that some of the Obama largesse, leveraged upon our children, might not be reachable for SC? Oh dearie me, we is too illiterate to buy into the global warming/carbon offsets scam or even to be welcoming to the hoardes of gay tourists led to Bob Jones University by the few SC is So Gay campaign posters… maybe we’re just stupid enough to keep all the nuclear waste that Harry Reid’s state is supposed to be accepting in Yucca Mountain, though that might scare the Hollywood elite away from the “What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas(right OJ?)” appeal of Sodom west.

Lou – drug use is an issue that a number of rural employers have been dealing with. My company and others have found 10-20% of those we wanted to hire could not be hired because they tested positive for drug use, many of whom weren’t even employed – so how could they afford drugs?!?

To raise this as an issue might be legitimate for discussion, but it’s far from the only issue.

I see the education issue which Wright talked about present among my own company’s workforce – but a lot of it has nothing to do with the schools. We have a large part of our state’s population that does not think having an education and avoiding drug use matters. While there may be some things school choice can help with around the margins, I don’t believe you can radically change this culture overnight, maybe not even in a generation.

I’m at the point where I don’t know if there’s anything we can do, ever. But I’m sure tired of my hard-earned tax dollars going to subsidize this culture of failure that does little more than produce a new generation and programs them to accept and embrace a culture of failure.

When people who work for a living struggle to put food on the table and afford health insurance for their families, in part to pay the taxes that allows someone who chooses to live on skid row gets free groceries and free health care with no deductibles or co-pays, something is very wrong.

Call me intolerant and racist, but I’m tired of struggling to support my own – as well all the losers who couldn’t care less about their kids.

This points out how the stupidity of our population is partly responsible for continuing to keep electing people who do not have the taxpayer’s best interest at heart- the RINOs.

All these politicians have to say is they are Republican , and are God fearing Christians and our poorly educated morons pull the lever for them.

Wright is one of the faceless, nameless government insiders that has made a good living buying and sell the rights and privileges of others (a practice known as growing government). He runs political campaigns on the side (often times from his PSC office…and does little to help the average illiterate South Carolinian.
