I-O-U…..Nothing
We’ve all been there before. Those times where we may owe someone money that we borrowed, a returned favor or just common courtesy for a good deed. Sometimes it’s easier to pay someone what we owe them (in money or deed) if we’re doing the paying. We feel like we’ve fulfilled our duty and the slate has been made clean. What happens though when we have our hands out waiting on what is rightfully due to us? It’s natural to feel a sense of entitlement when we go out of our way for someone. The bitter truth is we’ll hardly ever be fully appreciated or given all of our due accolades….no matter how much we really deserve them. And just like we feel there’s someone out there that needs to pay us what they owe, there’s someone else wanting the same thing from us.
Think about the last time you worked on a big project for work or school. You did all of the work but someone else gets to slap their name on it as “part of the group”. Since your individual efforts were not made to be public knowledge, everyone gets equal credit and your other group members share the recognition
“The Rich aren’t paying their fair share!” … to the loafers who contribute nothing.
“If you own a business, you didn’t build that!” … the collective did
“I believe in wealth redistribution!” … your wealth anyway. I’ll keep my own, leaving my half brother and illegal alien Aunt to live in squalor or on the public dole.
It’s amazing, living in a State of Denial. The Left have skillfully placed the blinders on our nation, especially our news media, so that nobody will even look at the Communists prancing around right in front of them.
“Communism is Dead!” … so we’re not really communists. Call us Progressives.
