The common man and women

In my business, I get to talk to and hear lots of opinions about almost every subject known to man from people in all walks of life. It has always amazed me how clear and simple and intelligent the regular common man or women is about most any issue going on in the news or life at that point in time.

As I watch the news, the politicians are blabbing on and on with whatever slant they think will appease the masses, having nothing whatsoever to do with what might be the right thing to do for the most amount of people. Whatever the problem, the right wing idiots just want to basically do nothing and maybe it will go away. The left wing idiots just want to talk about throwing money at the problem and it will go away. Both types of politicians are mostly, if not all rich, spoiled idiots who have no idea in hell what the common man needs or wants at all. They get everything they need handed to them on a silver platter and don’t even consider it a problem at all. They all get ridicules amounts of money just to put on their suits and pretend to matter, get medical care with no deductible, retirement payments to keep their mansions after they leave our public welfare system. Retirement payments the common man would consider being rich for his honest days work..

The thing that amazes me is as I listen to the opinions of the common man or women in my business talk about the problems of the world, is inevitably they come off with a perfectly uncomplicated, simple, plain as day suggestion on what should be done about some of the issues plaguing our country or even the world. Now most times their opinions are far from politically correct but usually hit the nail squarely on the head.

I sometimes wonder if the best ruler of our system might just be as an example, the farmer out on the farm. He doesn’t have the time or patience for political correctness or any of that nonsense. He just sees a problem and goes out and makes the problems go away, whatever it takes. He has far more important issues to deal with than what some politician or anyone else for that matter would think about his methods.

So hurray for the common man and women in the world. They are the true heroes in every sense of the word and deserve all the praise we can give them for a job well done in this way too complicated world.

Some of our rulers WERE just farmers on a farm to start out and then they forgot to take their parents advice and choose their friends wisely. Instead, they chose friends that sucked them in ...politicians that corrupted them!!! Hey... those who lay with dogs get fleas:) I'm with you...listen to the common folk!!
