Matters of Import & Timely Expertise
avoiding gossip and hate-speech.

A Ponderosity:
To say: "He is a man of truth," is to say nothing;
2 say: "He is a man of of," is to state an elementary truth of logic.

But the theory that praise, self-esteem and accomplishment increase in tandem is false. -

Well I didn’t think George was interested in my comments about ‘Equality of Condition’ … but that is the goal of those who want to give a trophy to everyone … the logic, the beauty … that everyone is equal (not in rights, fairness or under the law), but in success in ability … in condition.  Struggle will make them ‘unfair’, misery will make them ‘depressing’, etc.

We must protect our children, as the government must protect us … protection as ‘guarenteeing us a living, tweedle dealtle dumb.’ And so the grasshopper sings and dances … the ant works … and when winter comes, the ant has savings, but the grasshopper expects to be paid for singing and entertainment all summer.

Equality of condition is impossible, and even if it were possible, the result is not satisfying.. as the original thinker and worker is not rewarded, but penalized, and the lazy and dishonest is exhaulted … ‘look at what he has overcome … just to be here’  some egalitarians exclaim.  So just be there and you will be equal in status … in condition … and all we expect is a vote for us, now and then when we ask, Kapish?
