Big Assed Boondoggle

I really shouldn’t be surprised when I read things such as this. What this is is acronymed “BIG,” and stands for “Basic Income Guarantee.” Sounds all soft and fuzzy doesn’t it?  Indeed it does.  And why does it sound soft and fuzzy?  It sounds all soft and fuzzy because BIG is being sold as a this is a oh so good for everyone and equitable idea when it is actually nothing more than a call for forced redistribution of income, or, in straightforward terms, socialism, or, in American parlance, theft.  The fuzziness is attributable to the minds which posit such altruistic evils with the same earnestness of priests and pastors misleading the faithful in the mistaken belief that God wants you to roll over for any two-bit thug who wants your jacket, and your shirt too.  There are even people who discuss implementing this legalized theft, and how it would function.

I’ve got news for you.  Living wasn’t meant to be equal folks and anyone who tells you different is trying to slip a greased finger up your keister while saying you’re going to feel a little pressure, now.
