Hint: It's not the stork.
Or maybe it is. If storks can magically bring babies, maybe they can magically bring money.
Speaking of mony, do we have to pay income tax? Yes. Why? Because it's protection money. If we don't, the government will screw with our lives big time. Unlike the mafia though, there is no one we can report this to. We pay protection money to the government to keep them from stealing our houses, our whole paychecks, and our freedom. How screwed up is that?
We have a messed up system.
I'm short on time today so I'm going to post a couple of videos and call it a night.
I have a hard time watching the video and not imagining what it would be like for my son if I was killed. He's a daddy's boy and is one of the reasons why I'm not a cop any more. I will not willingly put my life in obvious danger because I don't want him to grow up without me. Part of it is for him but most of it is selfish. I want to be there and watch him grow. Every day, I am so thankful to have him in my life. If President Bush goes to war with Iran and they start drafting people, I can tell you right now that I won't be going. I'll serve time in jail before I die fighting to make W's friends even richer.
For my wife and for my son (and everyone who has relatives dying in a national robbery), I am completely against the Iraq war and the Iran war. I don't believe that it's okay to kill people in order to get what they have. Conquering another country because they have oil is wrong and evil and I won't have any part in it.
If that makes me one of the tinfoil hat wearing crazies, so be it.
