Where did I come up with a title like that you may wonder? Well, I was posting on a political message board and some folks from the fringe right started posting titles like this ... one right after another ..."Teachers Totally Embrace Socialism," "Unions Totally Embrace Socialism" and so on. Apparently, everyone in the USA embraces socialism, totally, according to them. But the misfits left out the real users of BIG Government, Seniors. Themselves. Especially the ones who are Tea Party members.
So here's my rant (and a bit of tongue-in-cheek) about the folks who really embrace what they consider to be socialism ~ or government entitlements. I'm throwing some of their favorite buzz words right back at them:
The Senior Socialists Tea Party folks TOTALLY EMBRACE Socialism. They ENJOY and EXPECT their MOMMY GOVERNMENT SS checks, Government Medicare, Government Medicaid, Government Section 8 Housing, Government Food Stamps, Government Meals on Wheels, Government programs at the Senior Socialist Centers around the nation, Government Welfare, Government Cheese and Milk programs ... and whatever else they can snag.
But ... and it's a big BUT ... they are against BIG government ... although they are the biggest users of the system. Not all of them, of course, but MOST of them. These wonderful Seniors are not even a 'secret socialist society.' They do it openly! Are they so dense as to not comprehend that they are part of the problem, which they think is THE BIGGEST problem within the USA?
Senior Socialists. I can't think of a better name for the these freeloaders who drive their FREE Socialist Medicare Scooters, can you? Or, have they lived long enough to deserve every government entitlement that they can get? At any rate, I wish they would take the over-used word 'Socialism' and ... well, you know. Don't get me wrong, I'm a compassionate person and do not begrudge anyone in this nation the government help that they truly need or deserve. I just happen to loathe hypocrites who are afraid someone else might get a slice of THEIR Socialist Pie. grrrrrrrrrrrrr ........
