Americans afraid of change?

I was surfing over at Real Clear Politics and I saw this headline from liberal, Michael Kinsley

Why are Americans Resisting Change?

Is Kinsley a moron or an aspiring comedian?

Of course, this article is related to the health care debate so let me enlighten Kinsley as to why all of us unenlightened hillbillies are resistant to "change" as introduced by our government.

1) Kinsley was born in 1951, so he was conscience of the change we'd have in this country if only we passed Great Society legislation. You know. We'd finally be rid of poverty in our inner cities. Poor kids could be educated and equality would be finally be ours in this utopia.

Well, it didn't quite work out that way now did it? We ended up spending TRILLIONS of dollars trying to make poor people not so poor and all we ended up with was drug infested shit holes now called cities.

Today, we not only have more economic poverty but a population of millions who have been infected with poverty of the soul.

2) Maybe it was the promise of Social Security where people would be forced to set aside money for their own retirement. The promise of this "change" was that this would be totally self sufficient program.

What we received was a giant Ponzi scheme that is in the red to the tune of 20 TRILLION dollars with no ability to cover the retirement liability for gen x retirees, hell for that matter baby boomers.

3) How about Medicare? Once again, we were promised a self sufficient medical program for seniors that is now over 20 TRILLION dollars in the red.

4) Maybe it's the fact that conservatives can see the government locomotive that can't change course once it gets moving.

Of course, you'd never know it from the state of California where the land of plenty is a total basket case buckling under the very "change" Kinsley so proposes.

I'm still waiting for one liberal to have the balls to debate me on this blog on any issue related to government spending. Actually, I've trolled several liberal blogs in an attempt to take the debate to them but you'll never get a post on a liberal blog defending the indefensible.

What you get on their blogs is a detailed debate on whether Bush shares DNA with Hitler.

So Mike, unlike you well educated liberal a-holes; conervatives are actually aware enough to see when we're getting smoke blown up our asses and we have 70 years of government "change" since the New Deal to back us up.

So you tell me why you wouldn't be afraid of the change you so dearly espouse?
