Stop Asking “How will we pay for it?” When it Comes to Doing the Right Thing
(How can we justify this attitude when it comes to the health of human beings? If anyone says, “How will we pay for it?” they should be asked this question: Suppose your child or spouse was trapped in a burning building. Firefighters arrive but you are asked, “How will you pay for this rescue?” The response to both questions should be the same.)
That's a swift hard kick to the gonads!
(No one should say “How will we pay for it?” when it comes to doing what is right. We’ve thrown away trillions of dollars on weapons and war. Trillions spent on killing other human beings. And yet we only ask “How will we pay for it?” when it’s about saving human lives?!)
Society has become complacency mentally ill in a profound way. You can thank the managed perception of a narrative illusion being waged on us by the establishment politicians and the compliant main stream media.

I would argue we have a serious problem within the population unwilling to think for themselves. I believe a large part of it is our life style here in the US. If you look at Europe where they spend less time working, they are able to spend more time on finding better news sources. Where most people here seem to be going only by headlines and catch phrases in the main stream media cycle. Protest, strikes, and walkouts are in a wide ongoing nature in Europe today on many fronts as austerity is being waged on many fronts over there. We aren't seeing that in our main stream media news cycle. And they don't want us to see it. It will not be said here, but we have been put on austerity measures since the collapse in 2008. We just keep rolling on as those around us keep falling into the cracks as our local and state governments keep getting closer to going under.
@William_Mary This is what happens to people who fall through the cracks in America, where you are only as good as your last days work. Grist for the meat grinder.
