YOUR VOTE COUNTS?

If you had a huge apple tree and the entire “crop” on that tree was dead or at best was withering to death and you were told that YOU had the opportunity to choose the best apple on that tree, what do you do?

Add to that you were told that this was one of your most prized RESPONSIBILITIES. And it was constantly repeated to you that it is YOU that makes the choice FREELY. And the FREELY was all covered with red, white, and blue.

What do you do?

Well right away you might THINK, “I’ll find a better tree”. But you are TOLD you can’t! Because this is the BEST tree.

So you might THINK, “I’ll find a better orchard.” But you are TOLD you can’t! And if you THINK on this idea too much you’ll be suspect.

Then you THINK, “I’ll cut down this tree and plant a new one.” But you are TOLD that you are under arrest for EVEN THINKING THAT!

Well needless to say you grab your ladder and go off to pick the “BEST DEAD OR AT BEST WITHERING TO DEATH APPLE from the tree.

But when all is done the PIE turns out to be not worth shit and funny thing is that it actually looks, smells, and tastes just like the last one.

And you don’t get a very big slice anyway. So you go back to your TV and watch how some big basketball star who has a much bigger slice of the pie than you’ll EVER have and has a beautiful wife and a huge house and big car and is UNHAPPY to the point of sucking down VIAGRA and booze in a whorehouse.

Oh, America …….. Land of the Free?
