Coming to terms with my feelings. Long, sorry.

Not the time to flame. I hope you get this worked out Tsing, you are a stand up guy and to see take you this as hard as you are is a cause for concern. That kind of anger will eat you up.

 

Good move. Obama wants to take care of them with our tax dollars. Why donate twice?

 

Exactly.

In the past private organizations took care of tthe poor. Now the gov't took over and now there are dozens of charities duplicating services. This is like our country is becoming a giant hippie commune, everybody is a beggar and everybody is sharing everything with one goal in mind, don't pay for anything and don't work for anything, just hang out.

 

The USA may or may not be the world’s greatest country. That is a highly opinionated statement, that I encourage you to express. I , however, am stating a fact when I can say I love this America, and its people.

But have you noticed how many of the panty waste droppings on this site, the same ones who likely supported your presidential candidate, would strongly disagree with your opinion that we are living in the world’s greatest country?

And also, Have you noted how many of those same bitch n’ moaners do not share the same love for this country that I have just expressed? Many will pound the drum of patriotism, but in all reality, they hate themselves, their so-called friends, family members and others in general.



I have gathered from your thesis a couple of possibilities.

1) Either you’ve obtained your information from a National Geographic while taking a dump after late morning coffee, only to draw false conclusions from 3 page articles.

Or

2) Perhaps you are repeating someone else’s point of view, such as your father’s, your grandmother’s, or maybe it’s even the views of some dumbass whom you may admire, who regularly spouts rhetoric from a local bar stool.

As we shall see, your answer to your own question is only 25% correct, and that 25% is arguable.



You say the Yanos lack Liberty, but it is obvious, you are either confused as to what the true meaning of the word is, or you are simply lacking in social study skills.

You say that Americans have Liberty, but as others can see, your mouth is simply taking precedence before your ignorance.


Let’s evaluate the definition of the word:

1. Free from arbitrary or despotic government control.


Does this sound like America to you?


Since our lexicon lacks the tools necessary to articulate law in a way that leaves no questions, we rely heavily upon, and surrender our mercy to the control of government which arbitrarily settles our disputes as they arise.
-In other words, due to a lack of words, and also due to an inability to properly phrase subtleties of thought, our laws are left vague; and so we are left with a need for judges and juries to decide what is best for us, according to their interpretations.

The Yanos have no such disputes settled by anyone other than the parties involved within.

If Jabbafu feels like Gabano has wronged him or vice versa, one will simply try to kill the other in order to settle the dispute. If one party pisses off the other bad enough, the one who has offended may even be eaten.

So in regards to being free from arbitrary government control, it is actually the Americans who lack liberty, and it is the Yanos who have it.



“Ahh, but Hoofy, What about the despotic part?”, you say?

Again, we shall examine the definition of the word:

1. A person who wields power oppressively, a tyrant.

This sounds awfully familiar to the way Phoenix Traitor , Scatafaggos, and many others on this forum have described our President, Barack Obama to be.

On the other hand, the Yanomamis have no such tyrannical figure looming over their wallets, threatening to take care of old , sick, lazy, and retarded people with their money.

So, in regards to freedom from despotic government control it is, perhaps again, the Americans who lack freedom, and the Yanos who have it.


Thus, it is little wonder why our founding father, Thomas Jefferson, clearly spelled out in the Declaration of Independence ~ that our right was not to Liberty, but only to the pursuit of it.



Property rights?

Lol!

In America, you have the right to pay for property, as well as the obligation to pay a tax on it every year, so long as a piece of paper has your name written on a blank line obligating you as the payee.

But when arbitrary government decides they have the need to control it, your right to that property can be to taken, and you will have to accept what despotic government gives you in return.

The Yanos have hunted, farmed, and gathered from the same land for centuries, maybe millennia, without obligation to pay some “big government”, for their right live off of the land.




Self reliance?

There may have once been a time when Americans possessed such an attribute, but those days have long since past.
Of course their will always be the exception, and a few will continue to be self reliant, off trapping some rodents from an icey mountain stream in order to survive.

The vast majority of Americans today, however, rely on computers to calculate, the internet to socialize, fast food service to eat, etc., etc.


The Yanos, on the other hand continue to be a hardy, hard working, and self reliant people, capable of using respectfully the bounty that nature provides to make a living.


Only now, as the world at large becomes , for lack of better words, “Americanized”, the Yanomami are endanger of losing their self reliance, their property rights, and their liberty.




Since you now (hopefully) realize you have had it all but bass-ackwards, in regards to what the Yanomamis and the Americans have and have not, perhaps now can be a time for you to consider just some of the issues the Yanos have to contend with -

How bout relentless rainfall that makes it all but impossible to store grains for any reasonable length of time?

The rainforests by their tropical nature harbor diseases that would make gonorrhea and aids combined seem like a head cold; bacteria that would make the notion of having a staph infection seem like a wet dream; parasitic fish that swim up your penis and lay their babies in your nutsack.

I think it’s reasonably safe to say that you and many other so called “self reliant and rugged individuals” on this site would likely be piranha poop within the first 6 weeks of your visit to the Amazon.

well said .. now his world has his wife and his son only and if and when they left him oneday .. his world will collapse! very sad!!!

 

Make sure you turn the internet off. The real world doesn't need you.

you see dear Hoofhead, i used to respect Tsing Tao very much and used to think he is a very special guy with a big heart but to my surprised his is not and he is going to throw away his mother just because she voted for Obama .. he talks about his love for his son but forgets he is his mother son too! i know he loves his son but he is not the only ones here!

Life has many ups and downs and many disappiontments and many hardships .. i am just very surprised he behaved this way when Obama won .. if everybody is like him .. almost half of us not talking or caring for each other as humans anymore! anyway he's really extreme going to shut down his mother just because she voted for Obama .. he's totally bitter.. period! i sincerely hope things will go well for him and his son and his wife ( now his world only consists of his son and wife only ) but life is not perfect as we all know by now .. if and when his son and wife leave him oneday .. he is going to be ever more bitter and total collapse... it's just very, very sad !!!

 

i used to respect and think you are a special guy with a big heart but in reality you are bitter and pathetic dope! The greatest nation on earth will have no future if eveybody thinks and behaves like you... maybe you should leave America and move to a hell hole country to appreciate America. By the way, sorry to inform you .. I am Not from a hell hole country!( maybe you are from a hell hole country as you are so bitter and angry )

 

The welfare/parasite class now officially outnumber the productive responsible tax payers. We already have no future.
