So many want the government to handle everything and to take care of them from the cradle to the grave.
Yesterday a grand daughter was here to visit us. She is a senior in a nearby school district in what is considered a good school. She told us one of her teachers told the class that they would live to see the end of the United States.

Have we reached a point where the people have become powerless in a "democracy" or are there things that we can do to regain control...or did the people never really have control in the first place?

What jumped out at me in the cartoon other than the whole monkey business was that I really had no desire to be laughing about the next "stimulus package" anyway.
