In Case You've Wondered

My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.

If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com

One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.

I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

Culling the Herd

We'll see how many of the bureaucrats, and other parasites on taxpayers, are culled from the public teat. It all sounds good, especially since the drain on funds is unsustainable, but regardless of opinion, my experience in life tells me it's mostly political promises that will never be kept. I know this sounds cynical, but in my sixty-plus years of being on this planet, I've never seen the Federal Government shrink in size, defeat inflation, not buy votes with taxpayer money, or pull the leash on agencies that abuse rights daily. Time will tell, and I pray things will become better, but until it happens, I will be cynical.

    1. All I've been seeing is hiring for more officials to take care of the officials. It's perpetual bureaucracy.

    1. It's a shame, but with what I have to work with, the conclusion of all this seems obvious.

    1. I've seen this before; grand rhetorical speeches, promises of change, holding both houses of Congress, and the beast becoming better fed. This time may be different, and it needs to be. Making the rubble bounce will guarantee some relief for long enough.
