Recieved an interesting email today. While I did not check it for accuracy, it sounds right. Says only 8% of the appointees and staff of President Obama have ever worked in private industry. That's probably the case with the great majority of bureaucrats also. No wonder our government seems to have no common sense whatsoever.
I would bet that 95% to 99% of the politicians in this country grew up in upper middle class or upper class homes and neighborhoods. They have never spent any time in the Bronx, Watts, downtown Detroit, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, or any third world country other than on a political tour. They don't even have any idea what it's like to be an average American working family who has to live within their income level, let alone what life is like for those less fortunate than us. They think you can sit down and negotiate with fanatics like Bin Laden (see Arafat, the inventer of terrorism), come to an agreement, exchange cheek kisses, and everything will be just hunky-dory.
You can evision it this way. The real world is 25,000 miles in diameter. Their world is about 5000 miles in diameter.
God bless and keep striving to make a difference,
Dumb Farmer
