Funny picture. I understand your answer completely. So it is really human nature that need some regulation, because people do what will give them (personally) the most gain at the moment, and not what is good for them as a whole people? A survival instinct.
Normally, "deferred satisfaction" is a sign of intelligence. that's why you don't drop out of high school and go work for McDonalds when you know you can make 10 times more if you're patient, go to college,work hard, achieve and land a well paying white collar job. The US has become the country of buy "now, pay later." Instant gratification, long term liabilities..and that's just not for Plasma TVs, unfunded entitlements, unfunded tax cuts, poorly planned wars. What we've gone through the last 4 weeks is payback time and it's far from being over.
I understand go to school, work hard, and get a good job so life is comfortable. But who is going to be the workers at the low paying job if everyone is finishing high school, then college, and can get a good job? No corporation can afford to pay all the workers big money.
you're a fucking fool. you haven't ventured more than a few miles outside of po-dunk city pop 100 what the fuck do you know about the world except for what Limbaugh and hanity feeds your feeble brain.
No question that conservative talk shows enjoy huge leads over anything from the Dems.

While the average total audience of her program remains slightly smaller than that of Mr. Kingâs, Ms. Maddow, 35, has made MSNBC competitive in that time slot for the first time in a decade. The channel at that hour has an average viewership of 1.7 million since she started on Sept. 8, compared with 800,000 before." http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/21/arts/television/21madd.html?hp Seneca
