Unfortunately for the country, our legislators are weak minded and inept. Their lack of foresight is only overshadowed by their transparent and opportunistic attempts to feign efficacy. So naturally, they can be counted on to embrace a plan that promises to magically provide everything to everyone at little or no cost.

The people who tend to the affairs of nations ought to be made of stern enough stuff to recognize the musings of naïve children when they see it.

“They look sad, Daddy. Why don’t we change the game so that EVERYONE wins?”

Your plan begs for the adult supervision than only a grown up can provide. “Because Sweetie, no one would play, and then everyone loses.”

That these faulty and unrealistic notions would be taken seriously under the auspices of an ‘economic plan’ is testament that America has gone way overboard making our children don plastic suits of armor to ride their bicycles, banning dodge ball, or refusing to keep score at soccer games. Our youth are so sheltered that they never get an opportunity to grow up. Perhaps they’ll end up legislators?
