The day before President Hope&Change won his worthless Nobel "Peace" Prize, El Rushbo reported about Detroit, a city where thousands lined up to fill out an application for stimulus money. According to local news reports (see here, here, here, and here) the money is supposed to keep these Detroit residents from being homeless or slipping into homelessness.
You might be thinking, Why is stimulus money being handed out like candy to Halloween trick-or-treaters to individuals rather than being used to create jobs as promised?
The answer is simple: The stimulus was never meant to create jobs; it was meant to empower the Democrat Party and buy votes. Sentient humans knew this from the very beginning. So if you thought the stimulus bill was a good idea and was necessary to bring the U.S. economy "back from the brink" (and believe me, I have liberal friends who do), then I've got a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.
But back to Detroit. I blogged about this the other day—thousands of mostly minority citizens in line, completely dependent on government for their existence, raised with a sense of entitlement, and hateful of those "racists," i.e., conservatives/Republicans and anyone else who suggests that the answer to poverty is not government handouts but the free-market creation of jobs.
As Rush says in the depressing 10-minute clip below, this is Obama's America. This is the socialist utopia the Democrats have been working on since the Great Society: Thousands and thousands of lazy, dependent, adult children. And stupid too. If you listen to the interviews given by the reporters, they don't even know where the "Obama money" (as they call it) comes from. All they know is what Democrats want them to know: They're getting free money and a Democrat-run government is giving it to them. There's nothing they've done to earn this money, and there's nothing they've done to deserve it.
But remember, it's hard-working overtaxed Republicans that are the greedy ones. We taxpayers are the source of this "Obama money"! But instead of letting these people in Detroit and elsewhere), they have instead brainwashed them to resent, envy, and hate us. This is the poison of modern-day liberalism.
This Detroit story, which makes one literally weep for this once-magnificent nation, is the direct product of decades of liberal/Democrat policy and leadership. But it dovetails nicely with a study that Rush read out of the U.K. entitled Benefits 'Wrecked the British Work Ethic,' New Study Claims. In sum, decades of pushing the welfare state on Britons has removed the stigma of unemployment. Being lazy, unproductive, and on the government dole is no longer considered shameful.
It's sad beyond words. And it's the future of this nation under President Hope&Change.
Here's Rush:
