What has become of our nation?

       Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel, "Pick up your shovels, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the Promised Land."  Nearly 75 years ago, (when Welfare was introduced) Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a Camel, this is the Promised Land."  Today, Congress has stolen your shovel, taxed your asses, raised the price of Camels and mortgaged the Promised Land!
       I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the economy, the wars, lost jobs, savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc...I called a Suicide Hotline. I had to press 1 for English.  I was connected to a call center in Pakistan.  I told them I was suicidal.  They got excited and asked if I could drive a truck.... Folks, we're screwed.
     

      Is this applicable to anyone?
